Parachute
Matthew Koma Lyrics

Think of me when your world seems to fall apart
Remember me when everything around you feels like it's collapsing.

Under the weight of a heavy heart
When you're weighed down by your emotions.

It’s so material, criminal, what we put up on a pedestal
We often elevate trivial things to importance, which is regrettable.

Need a spark to start a fire
You require inspiration to ignite the flame.

Don’t be afraid of a chance for a miracle
Take advantage of opportunities for extraordinary things to happen.

Scare it away being cynical
Don't let your disbelief or negativity discourage you from making a difference.

Step into open skies, close your eyes
Allow yourself to experience new things, even if they are unknown, because you will learn.

Jump into something you don’t recognize
Take a risk and pursue the unexpected, even if it's unknown.

Just reach your arms out wide
Open yourself to new experiences and opportunities with enthusiasm and optimism.

Cut me loose, my parachute won’t let me fly
Releasing the burden that holds me back allows me to achieve my goals.

I’ll survive 'cause we got love
Our love and affection will get us through life's challenges.

Summer days will fade away and pass us by
Life is fleeting and time passes by, so appreciate and cherish what you have.

Think of what we had, we got love
Reflect on our memories and appreciate the affection we share.

And it’s all we had, we got love
Love is essential and all that we need.

I’ll be the voice when the whispers get too loud
I'll speak out and support you when doubt or anxiety become overwhelming.

Your home base and the king that keeps you crowned
I'm a stable and supportive presence that uplifts and empowers you.

Your breath when you’re choking on your words
I'm there to help you when you can't find your voice or express yourself.

Your sex your right turn
I'm both your intimate partner and your guide for making positive changes.

When you’re ready to start, lean on my heart baby
When you're ready to take action, you can rely on my support and encouragement.

Cut me loose, my parachute won’t let me fly
Freeing myself from my fears and vulnerabilities allows me to achieve my aspirations.

Don ‘t need a tune with a view on the Westside
I don't require expensive or lavish things in order to be content.

Just wanna wake up at your side
I just want to be with you and cherish our time together.

'cause when you know it, you know it
When you feel something so powerfully, you're certain of it.

In the blink of a moment
In an instant or very quickly.

It’s like I‘m, like I‘m, like I’m falling for the first time
I feel a fresh and exciting form of infatuation with you that I haven't felt before.
