Lyrics Naji – Fallen

If you were me
Why would I reply?

There’s a wall that I cannot tear down
And I can’t touch the ground

And you

Tell me that you need me to
Need me to love you, hold you
Feel you, be you

So I say

Why are you in front of me?
Can’t I just move around?
Why are your hands so cold and lonely?
Why do I need help from you?

I never asked for this
Can’t I just keep my bliss
And go my own way

So don’t forget to drop off all your baggage
You don’t need it, don’t need it
You’re a town away from damage now (just move on)

Let me show you
I’m supposed to let you fall

And now I’m scared to grow
You say «I told you so»
Is there more to know?

Now I can’t trust the darkness of my own skin
Don’t make me trust the unknown that I’ve fallen in

Said I’m fallin’
I said I’m fallin’

It’s all okay, it’s all okay x16

Man:
Okay. Alright. What do you see in your future? Where do you see yourself 5 years from now?

Woman:
Five years from now? Well, I hope to be in England with Oli. Um, I would like to be married, own a home, have my own bakery, be producing wedding and event cakes, and be comfortable, but happy. You know what I mean? Like, not working comfortable, but with a job you hate. Like, I don’t wanna be rolling in the dough, I just wanna have a job that I like, and then come home to the man I love, probably a dog… That’s where I wanna be. Kids eventually

Man:
And, like, does any of that, does anything about your future scare you?

Woman:
Of course it does. Everything does. The whole universe scares me, but, you know… Um, It’s like in «Winnie the Pooh», you know? Piglet was really afraid of something, and he goes «suppose lightning hits this tree, ya know, and it catches on fire!» And Pooh just goes, «suppose it doesn’t.»

Man
Hmm

Woman:
So, you know, things could go wrong, it could be difficult, there could be hardships, but… maybe not. The only way you’re gonna know is if you go for it
