Falling Down
All Left Out Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The scene has reoccurred to me again
Where I don't want to dwell up on
All the stupid things I've said and done in my life
I just don't want to think about it.

Everytime I look above my shoulder
You're still standing there
Everytime I realise it's love I've found
I'm falling down
Falling, falling down and down
And I'll fall until my feet hit the ground
I'm falling, falling down and down

I could learn a thing or two or three
On humility
Now I see
In this life that I was right but then I was wrong
It was you on cue all along

Everytime I look above my shoulder
You're still standing there
Everytime I realise it's love I've found
I'm falling down
Falling, falling down and down
And I'll fall until my feet hit the ground




I'm falling, falling down and down
I'm falling down. [x2]

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to All Left Out's song "Falling Down" are reflective and introspective, as the singer explores their past mistakes and shortcomings whilst also recognising the love and support they have in their life. The opening lines set the tone for the song, with the singer admitting that they are haunted by past mistakes that they cannot forget. However, they also acknowledge that dwelling on those mistakes will not change anything and they do not want to waste time thinking about them.


The second verse suggests that the singer has learned some lessons about humility and recognising when they are wrong. They have come to the realisation that someone important in their life has been there for them all along, perhaps supporting them through some of their toughest times. The repetition of the lines "every time I look above my shoulder, you're still standing there" emphasises the consistent presence of this support system.


The chorus, with its repetition of "falling, falling down and down," reflects the cyclical nature of the singer's thoughts and emotions. They feel as though they are falling, with no end in sight, until they hit the ground. This could symbolise hitting rock bottom or coming to a realisation that they cannot keep dwelling on past mistakes, and need to move forward with the support of their loved ones.


Overall, the lyrics of "Falling Down" are about recognising one's flaws and shortcomings, whilst also acknowledging the importance of the people in our lives who help us through the tough times.

You were alone, left out in the cold
Clinging to the ruin of your broken home
Too lost and hurting to carry your load
We all need someone to hold
You've been fighting the memory, all on your own
Nothing worsens, nothing grows
I know how it feels being by yourself in the rain
We all need someone to stay
We all need someone to stay
Hear the fallen and lonely, cry out
Will you fix me up? Will you show me hope?
At the end of the day you were helpless
Can you keep me close? Can you love me most?
You've drunk it down and you've spat it out
And nothing tastes like the things you had
So tear it off, why don't you let them go?
We all need someone to stay
We all need someone to stay
Hear the fallen and lonely, cry out
Will you fix me up? Will you show me hope?
At the end of the day we're helpless
Can you keep me close? Can you love me most?
Can you keep me close? Can you love me most?
Can you keep me close? Can you love me most?
You were alone, left out in the cold
Clinging to the ruin of your broken home
Hear the falling and lonely, cry out
Will you fix me up? Will you show me hope?
The end of the day and we're helpless
Can you keep me close? Can you love me?
Hear the fallen and lonely, cry out
Will you fix me up? Will you show me hope?
At the end of the day we're helpless
Can you keep me close? Can you love me most?
Can you keep me close? Can you love me most?
Can you keep me close? Can you love me most?

It makes me so sad how sad everyone is in the comments.
But don't forget you’re not alone. NEVER. U always have urself.
When he said: „we all need someone to stay“. And u thought that u have no one. Ur wrong bc u are always gonna have urself. And that is more than u could ever wish for. U were born alone and u're gonna die alone. But that doesn’t mean ur alone. I know its hard but u have to learn to love yourself and be proud of yourself. You made it trough this, trough ur whole life! So its not worth it, to stop it now. U gotta be strong now and ur gonna make it trough! imagine urself in a few years and imagine how u smile at the person u are now and how u tell urself how proud u are of u! And „To be strong“ doesn’t mean that u always have to be happy or something. It‘s also strong when u are able to show ur sadness and to talk about it bc it helps a lot, believe me! Its ok to be sad and feel lost. I think we all need this just to remember that there’s hope and to remember who we are and to remember that we are NEVER alone. We have ourself! And u can talk to ppl! U can get refuge and help everywhere, but the most from urself. Sometimes u just need ppl to remind u of this.

- this text wasn’t supposed to be that long. But it just makes me so sad when ppl aren’t feeling good and are sad.
-also sorry for my english ik its not the best (im from germany)





- trust me, its gonna be ok
But most of all: trust urself and believe in urself. Let no one tell u how u have to be. Be PROUD of who u are u made it till here!! And its gonna make u even stronger.

"You were alone left out in the cold clinging to the ruin of your broken home
Too lost and hurting to carry your load
We all need someone to hold
You've been fighting the memory all on ur own
Nothing worsens and nothing grows
I know how it feels being by urself in the rain
We all need someone to stay"

It hurts most when u feel pain from those u thought were supposed to give love. Sometimes it's best not to expect much frm anyone, then u won't be so heartbroken ;')

ever lock yourself in the bathroom and cried silently and washed your face and came back as nothing happened.

Noblesse Raizel

Yes

Uta Tsuki

Yes. When I feel overwhelmed by everything and I just feel like I was drowning into the sea. When time like those come, a go in the bathroom, take deep breath and drink water to calm down my emotions. You see, I'm a big sister, and I don't like to show my weak side to my little sibblings. I need to be there for them, I need to be strong for them. For my family. Anyone else?

Uta Tsuki

@qs It's not that we're depressed. It's just, sometimes, the world seem to much for us, and we know that'll get better, so we just cry all alone to not worry anyone and we feel a little better afterward. It's like that for me😊

Kanyon

I know this is very late but doing that right now…

Adam Barnes

Don’t be the person that “needs” someone to stay. Be the person that someone else needs YOU to stay.

Working on being that person 📝
