If fear's what makes us decide
Our future journey
Well I'm not along for the ride
'Cause I'm still yearning

To try and touch the sky
My fingers burning
Before you are old you're young
Yeah I'm stilling learning

I am falling down
Try and stop me
Feels so good to hit the ground
You can watch me

Fall right on my face
It's an uphill human race
And I, I am falling down

I'm standing out in the street
The earth is moving
I feel it under my feet
And I'm still proving

That I can stand my ground
And my feet are there
Having washed my hair
To be lost before you are found
Don't mean you're losing

I am falling down
Try and stop me
Feels so good to hit the ground
You can watch me
Fall right on my face
It's an uphill human race
And I, I am falling down

Someday I'll live in a house
Etc, etc, etc
But you know that's not for now
For now I'm falling down, down, down
Down, down, down
Down, down, down
Yea, yeah, yeah

I am falling down
Try and stop me
Feels so good to hit the ground
You can watch me
Falling right on my face
It's an uphill human race
And I, I am falling down
I am falling down (falling, falling, falling)
Feels so good to hit the ground
(oh you're falling)

    General Comment:I think it means that shes going to do whatever she wants. It's a race to get to the top and be the best, and shes just going to go with the flow.

    General Comment:i like this song, it's cute. the opening lyrics are good, she's like, if fear and pressure are what make us become who we are in life and get stuck in a shitty dead end jobs and unhappy relationships, then she's not up for it cos she wants more from life.

    General Comment:This song about life of modern youth, about their mistakes, about a way of life. I love this song, but sometimes it seems to me that some of Avril`s songs written by the ten years' girl tired from a life
