Falling
De/Vision Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Since the day I met you
Since my prayers reached you
I know that you're the only one

And I'll never curse you
All the lows I've been through
Make me sure that I have won

When I look into your eyes
I can always see them smile
When I listen to your words
And I feel they don not hurt
I always want to be the one
To talk to you and have fun

Falling
Falling
Falling
In love with you

Then you take my hand
Lead me to your land
Let me feel your charm
Hold me in your arms
Well I can't escape
And I feel no hate
I suppose I do
Things you want me to

Time is running fast
Leaves me in the past
Poison in my veins
Makes me squirm with pain
Can't you save me now
Though I don't know how
Can't you make me feel
All my wounds you heal

Falling
Falling
Falling
In love with you

When I look into your eyes
I can always see them smile
When I listen to your words
And I feel they don not hurt

I always want to be the one
To talk to you and have fun

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to De/Vision's song "Falling" express the feeling of falling in love with someone and being completely consumed by them. The opening verse speaks of the singer's faith in their connection to the other person, describing the feeling of meeting someone who you know is meant for you. The second verse speaks of being taken away to another world, completely lost in the other person's charms with no desire to escape.

The chorus repeats the word "falling" three times, emphasizing the sense of disorientation and surrender that comes with falling in love. The bridge, however, takes a darker turn, as the singer speaks of feeling poisoned by their own emotions and their own past. They call out to their lover to save them, to heal their wounds and take away their pain.

The lyrics to "Falling" are highly emotive and convey a sense of vulnerability and fragility when it comes to matters of the heart. The beauty of the song comes from the way it captures the contrast of intense joy and intense pain that often comes with falling in love, and the way the two experiences can coexist.
