The Fall
Leyya Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

With you in my head it's why I can sleep
Roll around my bed and think of it
Find it hard to chew what I want to see
So I just pretend there's two of me.
Knowing you were there is all that I need
But I'm really scared it's more than me
I'm a little fool it's gonna repeat
But I think of you in my sleep

Make up my head guarantee you keep me high
I blame myself in my mind it's in your eye
But I can't tell where you find reality
I'm someone else, when you desert me
When you disappear I don't know a sound
I run up a hill and roll back down
Trust me in a week I want you around
Don't want you to stay knock my head down

Make up head guarantee you keep me high
I blame myself in my mind it's in your eye
But I can't tell where you find reality
I'm someone else, when you desert me

I knock my head down I knock my head down
Last night I'm falling ended up calling
I lost my head though I lost my cellphone
Last night I'm falling ended up calling

I knock my head down
I knock my head down




I lost my head though
I lost my cellphone

Overall Meaning

In Leyya's song The Fall, the singer struggles with their thoughts and feelings about someone, unable to fully express or unravel what they want from this connection. They confess that the person they're thinking about keeps them up at night, unable to fully rest until they've sorted out what they're feeling. The singer acknowledges that they have trouble coming to terms with what they want from this person, finding it difficult to face the reality of their emotions. They'd rather imagine a version of themselves that isn't paralyzed by their feelings, except that they know they'll make the same mistake again.


The singer's thoughts about this person lead them to question whether their feelings are mutual or not. They're afraid that this person means more to them than they do to the other person. The singer's confusion and fear cause them to create alternate versions of themselves, further complicating their thoughts and feelings. They describe feeling like someone else entirely when this person isn't around, unable to recognize themselves in their own skin. The singer acknowledges that they have trust issues when the person they're thinking about isn't present. They imagine running away from their emotions, but their feelings are persistent, and they know they'll want this person around again soon.


Overall, Leyya's The Fall is about the obsession and confusion that comes with overthinking a connection with someone. The singer can't seem to shake their thoughts about this person, although they're not entirely sure what they want from them. They fear that they invest more in this connection than the other person, but they can't ignore their feelings.

THE FALL

With you in my head
it's why I can't sleep
roll around my bed
and think of it

Find it hard to tell
what I want to see
so I just pretend
there's two of me

Knowing you are there
is all that I need
but I'm really scared
that it's more to me

I'm a little fool
It's gonna repeat
but i think of you
in my sleep

Chorus
Make up my head
'cause in there you keep my high
I blame myself
'cause in my mind it seemed alright
but I can't tell
where to find reality
I'm someone else
when you're beside me


When you're beside me
I don't know a sound
I run up a hill (huh huh)
and roll back down
trust me, in a way
I want you around
but don't want you to stay
so, I'll knock my head down

Chorus

Bridge
I knock my heart down
I knock my head down
Last night, learned falling
ended up calling

I lost my head, oh
then lost my cellphone
Last night, learned falling
ended up calling

(knock, knock, knock, knock)
