Ani Difranco - Falling Is Like This lyrics

You give me that look that's like laughing with liquid in your mouth like you're choosing between choking and spitting it all out like you're trying to fight gravity on a planet that insists that love is like falling and falling is like this Feels like reckless driving when we're talking It's fun while it lasts, and it's faster than walking But no one's going to sympathize when we crash They'll say "you hit what you head for, you get what you ask" and we'll say we didn't know, we didn't even try one minute there was road beneath us, the next just sky I'm sorry I can't help you, I cannot keep you safe I'm sorry I can't help myself, so don't look at me that way we can't fight gravity on a planet that insists that love is like falling and falling is like this.
