Found You in the Falling

alternative rock, Southern funk, blues-rock

[Intro — Bass and Distant Alarms]
[Verse 1]
Zeek says there's a signal
Coming up ahead.
Jett cuts through a fallen door.
The lights are flashing red.
Bosun's shouting over us,
"Watch the ceiling, move!"
Then Cutter sees a shadow
Coming through the smoke.
[Verse 1]
It's Piney with his arms around her.
Her hair is hanging down.
I call his name. He looks at me
Like he can't hear a sound.
He says, "She's breathing. Help me."
That's all he has to say.
I get beneath her other side.
We start to clear a way.
[Pre-Chorus]
Five of us came looking.
Seven make it out.
There's no time for the questions.
Keep moving, don't look down.
[Chorus]
We found you in the falling.
We're getting you back home.
Put your weight on us, brother.
You don't have to do this alone.
The walls can come down around us.
The whole damn place can shake.
We'll carry what we came for.
We're getting you away.
[Verse 2]
Jett gets the door to budge.
Bosun holds it wide.
Cutter finds a passage
With a little light inside.
Zeek is watching every turn,
Calling where to go.
The floor drops out behind us.
We don't wait to see below.
[Verse 2]
Piney keeps on talking,
His voice against her hair.
"I've got you, babe. We're going home."
She doesn't answer there.
I wish she'd tell us all to hurry,
Tell us we're too slow.
Instead I hear her breathing,
And that's enough to know.
[Pre-Chorus]
Five of us came looking.
Seven make it out.
I keep repeating those two numbers
When the lights go out.
[Chorus]
We found you in the falling.
We're getting you back home.
Put your weight on us, brother.
You don't have to do this alone.
The walls can come down around us.
The whole damn place can shake.
We'll carry what we came for.
We're getting you away.
[Bridge]
A piece of ceiling catches
Piney on the vest.
He turns to shield her from it,
Holding her against his chest.
I take the weight beside him.
"Come on, I've got you both."
He nods, his hands still shaking.
He's carried her so far.
[Bridge]
Then Bosun calls, "The doorway!"
And Jett is pulling it apart.
We get them through together,
With the dust against our backs.
[Final Chorus]
We found you in the falling.
We're getting you back home.
Put your weight on us, brother.
You don't have to do this alone.
The walls can come down around us.
The whole damn place can shake.
We'll carry what we came for.
We're getting you away.
[Outro]
We're clear of the building.
Piney's kneeling in the dirt.
He says her name and waits.
I wish that she'd wake up.
[Soft Bass, Unresolved Chord]
