"Falling Down" lyrics - DURAN DURAN

Once was a man who consumed his place and time
He thought nothing could touch him
But here and now it's a different story-line
Like the straws he is clutching

Why has the sky turned grey?
Hard to my face and cold on my shoulder
And why has my life gone astray?
Scarred by disgrace I know that it's over

Because I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time could I find
Someone out there to help me?

Howl at the wind rushing past my lonely head
Caught in silent slow-motion
How I wish it was somebody else instead
Howling at all this corrosion

Why did the luck run dry?
Laugh in my face so pleased to desert me
Why do the cruel barbs fly?
Now when disgrace can no longer hurt me

Because I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time could I find
Someone out there to help me?
You see I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time could I find
Someone out there to help me?

Because I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time could I find
Someone out there to help me?
You see I'm falling down
With people standing round
But before I hit the ground
Is there time could I find
Someone out there to help me?

I don't know: where to go
I don't know: here I go
