lyrics

Here I am, find myself back at this familiar place
However far I run, however fast I fly, no matter what I do
I'll never, ever win
Standing on the sandy beach, looking out over the ocean
Well, I'd take a step, but it's a trap, it's a trap
I just know it

And so, I fall
I fall
'Cause this gravity's far too strong

It's so familiar
Being stuck at the bottom of this goddamned hole
I always end up here
It's starting to feel like a second home
I've gotta run away
I need to fly away
But there's so much gravity
This planet is too big for me
Gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity

This planet is too big for me

I try to break 'em
But all of these habits, they end up breaking me
So I try to fake it, laughing all the time like life's some perpetual party
Standing on the edge of nothing
Wishing I was something
Wishing I could find my way
No, I don't wanna give up, No I can't give up
But lord, I think about it every single day

No I don't
Don't wanna fall
I don't wanna fall
But this gravity's far too strong

It's so familiar
Being stuck at the bottom of this goddamned hole
I always end up here
It's starting to feel like a second home
I've gotta fly away
I need to run away
But there's so much gravity
This planet is too big for me

It's too familiar
Looking up from the bottom of this goddamned hole
I always end up here
It's starting to feel like a second home
I've gotta run away
I need to fly away
But there's too much gravity
This planet's too big for me
Gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity gravity

This planet is too big for me
