Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll try to bring you back down to earth but right now
Oh, right now
It just hurts
I'll take the words you throw out at me
I'll try my best not to take them wrong
Cause right now
Oh, right now
But just give me a break
Break it off
Just give me some relief
Even just for a night
Let me fall
Let me fall
Let me run away
It's not your fault
It's not your fault
When I break away
Let me fall into my bed
And get out of my head
Cause I need it
I need it
Let me fall
Let me fall
Let me run away
It's not your fault
It's not your fault
When I break away
Let me fall into my bed
And get out of my head
Cause I need it
I need it
If we feed into it
We gonna fade away
If we fall into it
We gonna waste away
I never knew the meaning
I need some relieving
I know it's easier to say
Harder to push it away
It's how you wanna go, how you wanna see
How you wanna vibe, how you wanna be
I can't do this no more
What's the reason for
Trying anymore
Giving you it all
Giving you the trust
Giving you the false
Giving you the love-uh
But just give me a break
Break it off
Just give me some relief
Even just for a night
Let me fall
Let me fall
Let me run away
It's not your fault
It's not your fault
When I break away
Let me fall into my bed
And get out of my head
Cause I need it
I need it
Let me fall
Let me fall
Let me run away
It's not your fault
It's not your fault
When I break away
Let me fall into my bed
And get out of my head
Cause I need it
I need it
