Falling For You
Busted Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Semesters coming soon
So I would like to mention
I woke up in my room
Alone you're always welcome
Next week my mum's away
So now my futures brightened
I'd ask to have you stay
If I wasn't so frightened

I'm
I'm really falling for you
I hate what you're putting me through
What have you done to me now
I just can't sleep at night
My bed is wet don't know how
Will someone please turn out the light

You showed up at my door
Just like in a teen movie
I said are you the whore
I paid to come and fuck me
I guess she found it funny
When I said hello honey
A piercing in her belly
It turned my legs to jelly

I'm
I'm really falling for you
I hate what you're putting me through
What have you done to me now
I just can't sleep at night
My bed is wet don't know how
Will someone please turn out the light

You're taking over my life
But I don't seem to mind
There is no stopping you
From taking me on a ride

I'm
I'm really falling for you
I hate what you're putting me through
What have you done to me now
I just can't sleep at night
My bed is wet don't know how




Will someone please turn out the light
Will someone please turn out the light x 2
