Album: Three - Falling - Artist: Keith Darley

Album: Three - Falling - Artist: Keith Darley FALLING Written & Performed by Keith Darley Some songs come from a single moment. This one came from a lifetime of starting over. "Falling" is about what it feels like when life keeps asking you to rebuild. There are people who lose everything once. Some lose everything more than once. This song is about living through that cycle—watching a life you've worked hard to build disappear, finding the strength to begin again, and then facing the possibility of having to do it all over once more. It's about waking up in an empty house. Waiting for the phone that never rings. Talking to the silence because there's no one else there. It's about carrying memories of the people you love while wondering how many more times your heart can survive being broken. I've rebuilt my life more times than I ever imagined possible. I've experienced homelessness, loss, heartbreak, illness, and watching entire chapters of my life disappear. Every time, music became the one thing no one could take away. "Falling" isn't about surrender. It's about telling the truth about what it feels like when you're exhausted from surviving. And even in that exhaustion, there is still a small part of you searching for one more reason to stand back up. For me, that reason has always been my children: My daughter Amity, and my sons Thomas and Memphis. Every song I write carries them with me. Always. Dedicated to my daughter Amity, and my sons Thomas and Memphis. Love, Dad LYRICS Verse 1 I wake up to an empty house, another sunrise, another day I'm facing what's happening, I'm talking to the shadows on my walls The phone doesn't ring, no one's knocking at my door My life lately just feels like it's falling apart It's happening again, like so many times before I've had some hard times in my life I've lost it all a few times and it just keeps happening No matter what I do, I can't stop it Chorus Falling, I'm falling It's happening again Falling, I'm falling Don't think I can do it again Falling, I'm falling Again, again Falling Verse 2 Had to rebuild my life so many times One, two, three now Each time losing everything I've had Everyone I've loved Having to restart again from scratch with nothing I've ended up homeless so many times Walking the streets and sleeping in tents And as soon as I get back and get it all again in my life It happens again I'm falling Falling apart again Losing it all I don't know if this time I'll make it through Chorus Falling, I'm falling It's happening again Falling, I'm falling Don't think I can do it again Falling, I'm falling Again, again Falling Instrumental Solo Two acoustic guitars improvisation Verse 3 I'm getting tired and I'm old Too many scars from the past It keeps on happening so many times I don't know if I want to try again Have it all taken away again But the photographs on my wall Memories of people that I've lost Memories of my kids My daughter, my son and my little buddy They're all gone I miss them every day Every sunrise and every night Now again It's all happening again I don't know if I can keep on getting back up Each time it damages my head some more And I'm falling Falling harder than I ever have And I'm done doing it alone Final Chorus Falling, I'm falling It's happening again Falling, I'm falling Don't think I can do it again Falling, I'm falling Again, again Falling Every day feels like it's getting worse A relentless curse keeps pushing Watching through the window At everyone else outside living their lives Why can't I? Living their lives Why can't I? If this song resonates with you because you've had to rebuild your life after loss, hardship, or circumstances beyond your control, I hope it reminds you that you're not the only one carrying that weight.
