Lyrics

Sometimes I wish 
That I was as blind as you
To not see for real
Core dented, lapsing into favourable views
It’s too true

Instead I choose to see
Turn these spirits upon me, run
I try to be brave, I try to be strong
But I just can’t seem to stop myself from falling

Feet first (x7 )
Yeah I’m falling 
Feet first (x7)
I’m falling

Force-fed redundant ideals
And you’d expect that we’d ever fear
There’s a stranglehold on our thinking
Who defines the truth?

Well if there is a god
Well I won’t be crushed
‘Cause I don’t stand behind a mask
And on judgement day 
You will be the one who’s falling

Feet first (x7 )
Yeah I’m falling 
Feet first (x7)
I’m falling

I watch it’s not my fault
It bites itself into submission
A gift turned sour by the worst(?) conditioning 
There’s a stranglehold on your thinking (x3)
Who defines the truth?
I’m listening

There’s a stranglehold on your thinking (x6)
