Sketches Set 7: Segment No. 1
de William Grant Still
Falling down deeper down
Shattered pieces
Mend my soul, I seem whole
But I'm scarred
Many times I've been longing to end it
I have stood on the edge, tasted pills
I confess all my sins
All my permanent disorders
I admit I'm a fool
But I'm foolish for deep water love
Start spreading the news
I'm on my way up again
I've tripped, tripped but I've dodged the end
Du du du du du du do me wrong
But I'm not drowning
I'm breaking the waves
I'm falling for love again
I'll trip, trip but I can dodge the end
I'm deep down under the waterline
But I'm not drowning
I'm not drowning
Craving fights to lose sight
Of our numbness
We don't howl like the rest we stay quiet
Many times I have searched for your guidance
I believed that your words could make it right
I confess all my sins
As I dive into deep water love
Start spreading the news
I'm on my way up again
I've tripped, tripped but I've dodged the end
Du du du du du du do me wrong
But I'm not drowning
I'm breaking the waves
I'm falling for love again
I'll trip, trip but I can dodge the end
I'm deep down down under the waterline
But I'm not drowning
I'm not drowning
Coming up coming up take the fight
Everything everything will be alright
