It describes the gravitational pull of that damaging and often toxic connection, portraying the difficulty of breaking free. The lyrics convey a sense of being trapped, spiraling downward, and the internal battle to escape the darkness. Those living in this existence often find themselves juxta-positioning between high - highs, and low- lows. Counseling or simply accepting that this existence is self-damaging and moving past it is the best advice. Everyone deserves better! ohhhh....... ohhhhh........... ohhhhh........ [INTRO] On this winding road called life, I have traveled so far, (so far......) Hollow echoes of the past, emboss me like a scar Through eyes clenched ever so tight, I struggle to ignore, Hands pressed across my ears, as I try to dull the roar, (the roar......) Hopelessly broken and curled, upon the cold hard floor Spent a lifetime and day, to overcome this war [Instrumental Interlude] But once again you, lure me toward my own demise.... Unable to look away, caught in the gravity of your eyes. (your eyes.........) ohhhh....... ohhhhh........... ohhhhh........ Gravity.......(gravity.......) GRAVITY............(Gravity...........) [Hook] I’m circling, spiraling, closer toward the grave, This cruel mistress called gravity, unable to behave. (unable to behave....) With every step I take, the weight grows in my heart, This dance within darkness, is slowly tearing me apart. (tearing me apart.....) [Instrumental Interlude] [VERSE 1] Your eyes glow like stars, I'm a moon caught in their trance, But this path we are chasing is a desperate dance. (dance.....) Every choice pulls me closer, like tides in the night, But the shadows are gathering, swallowing up the light. (swallowing up the night.....) [VERSE 2] Try my best to ignore reason, crying out in vain, Flicker of light in the distance, an oncoming train (train.....) You say you have dreams, but whats left is covered in rust, Plead you have learned your lesson, as it crumbles to dust. [Pre-Chorus] I’m circling, spiraling, closer toward the grave, This cruel mistress called gravity, unable to behave. (behave....) With every step I take, the weight grows in my heart, This dance within darkness, is slowly tearing me apart. (tearing me apart.....) [CHORUS] I'm spiraling, I'm falling, lost in your eclipse, The weight of your bad decisions on my body grips. (body grips.....) Gravity's a cruel mistress, dragging me so low, Helplessly caught in your orbit, heartaches only grow. (only grow.....) [Instrumental Interlude] But once again your lure me, toward my own demise.... Unable to look away, caught in the gravity of your eyes. (your eyes.........) ohhhh....... ohhhhh........... ohhhhh........ Gravity.......(gravity.......) GRAVITY............(Gravity...........) [OUTRO] So here I am once again, the king of my despair, With every single heartbeat, I feel the weight I bear, I'm a prisoner of my choices, lost inside the fight. Yet somehow find the beauty, in this darkened night. So will I survive, or become a star destined for doom, Or break free from your grip, and escape shadows of gloom? [CHORUS] I'm spiraling, I'm falling, lost in your eclipse, The weight of your bad decisions on my body grips. (body grips.....) Gravity's a cruel mistress, dragging me so low, Helplessly caught in your orbit, heartaches only grow. (only grow.....) But once again your lure me, toward my own demise.... Unable to look away, caught in the gravity of your eyes. (your eyes.........) ohhhh....... ohhhhh........... ohhhhh........ (ohhhh.......) Gravity.......(gravity.......) GRAVITY............(Gravity...........) [FADE TO END] [END]
