[Verse 1 ] I ironed my shirt with shaking hands Thought maybe today, I’d finally land Smiled like I meant it, laughed on cue But I’m coming undone at the seams [Pre-Chorus] They said (you clean up alright) But I felt like a fraud in the limelight I move like a man out of time Wearing the suit like armour Like a crutch [Chorus ] Oh, I keep falling, (I keep falling) Like Icarus in a cheap suit (falling) Wish someone would see me But I fly too high The sun adores me, but sends me falling (I keep falling) (I keep falling) [Verse 2 ] I rehears my lines in the mirror But my words always came out wrong I know people can see I am a fraud Just so awkward in my own skin I was built to break No matter what skin I wear [Pre-Chorus ] They said (act like you’ve always belonged) But I’ve been pretending too long And every step feels like a bluff Tailored threads, not enough [Chorus ] Oh, I keep falling, (I keep falling) Like Icarus in a cheap suit (falling) Wish someone would see me But I fly too high The sun adores me, but sends me falling (I keep falling) (I keep falling) [Bridge ] The higher I go, the smaller I feel A fool about to fall They cheered when I spoke, but I knew inside That glory’s just failure in a better disguise [Chorus] Oh, I keep falling, (I keep falling) Like Icarus in a cheap suit (falling) Wish someone would see me But I fly too high The sun adores me, but sends me falling (I keep falling) (I keep falling)
