Tumbling
Madeline Merlo Lyrics

Lately love felt like distraction
Recently, the feeling of being in love doesn't seem as important or prominent as other things in my life

And head over heels was overreaction
Falling head over heels in love feels like too much of an extreme reaction to something that may not be worth it

All those times, let myself fall
I have let myself be vulnerable and fall in love many times before

Another heartbreak, another breaking the wall
Every time I fall in love, it seems to end in heartbreak and the walls I've built up around my heart get shattered again

Now it's all Tumbling, tumbling Tumbling down
Now everything is falling apart and becoming chaotic

Like a wrecking ball, you came around
You appeared in my life suddenly and forcefully, causing destruction and change

All my walls crashed to the ground
All the barriers I had put up to protect my heart were destroyed

Coming baby, how'cha doing?
Hello, my love, how are you?

Stone stealing water, you broke through it
You were able to break through and penetrate my defenses, like a stone taking water through it

And you didn't even have to try
You were able to accomplish this without even putting in much effort

You found a part of me I always hide
You were able to find a part of me that I usually keep hidden and protected

When we collide, they go Tumbling, tumbling Tumbling down
When we meet, everything else falls apart and becomes chaotic

I've lost control My heart explodes All my walls Down they go
I have lost control of my emotions and my heart feels like it's exploding. All of my defenses have crumbled

Tumbling down Tumbling, tumbling, tumbling Tumbling down
Everything is tumbling down and becoming chaotic
