Falling Star
I. M. Brown Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I messed up your perfect dream
I'm sorry, you made me scream
You don't deserve this, do you
You don't deserve anything coming to you
So let's sit down, let's talk
No that's enough, you balked
I'll run away, I won't fall
We've been through it all

And I believed you, I did
And I'm sorry about the kids
But it's too far
My falling star
You didn't see
When you're with me
And you believed
You believed who I said you are
You're my falling star
And you believed
My scenery
I'm so sorry
I just come and leave

I'm so sorry
Don't set me free

I messed up your perfect dream
I ruined the vision you had of a flawless reality

I'm sorry, you made me scream
I apologize, but your actions provoked my anger

You don't deserve this, do you
You should not have to endure these hardships

You don't deserve anything coming to you
You are undeserving of any pleasant experiences

So let's sit down, let's talk
Let's have a conversation and try to resolve our issues

No that's enough, you balked
Actually, nevermind, your resistance has deterred me

I'll run away, I won't fall
I will escape from this situation without succumbing to weakness

We've been through it all
We have experienced everything together

And I believed you, I did
I had complete trust in you

And I'm sorry about the kids
I apologize for the impact this has had on our children

But it's too far
But the damage is irreparable

My falling star
You are the one who has fallen from grace

You didn't see
You failed to notice

When you're with me
What happens when you are in my presence

And you believed
And you trusted

You believed who I said you are
You accepted the version of yourself that I portrayed

You're my falling star
You are the one who has lost their shine and glory

And you believed
And you trusted

My scenery
The environment that surrounds me

I'm so sorry
I deeply regret my actions

I just come and leave
I only appear briefly and then depart

I'm so sorry
I deeply regret my actions

Don't set me free
Please do not grant me my freedom

Sedate

A star fell from heaven right into my arms
A brighter star I know I've never seen
Then I found out that it was only you and all your charms
Who came into my life to fill a dream

A fallen star that's what you are
The twinkle in your eye came from the sky
You must have strayed from the Milky Way
A fallen star that's what you are

A fallen star that's what you are
That twinkle in your eye came from the sky
You must have strayed from the Milky Way
A fallen star that's what you are
