ALEJANDRO ESCOVEDO
"Gravity / Falling Down Again"

Pay your money, take your chances
The wheel spinning going 'round and 'round
No angels hangin' from the ceiling can save
You
No no St. Jude can't pull you out

No use in running from the shadows to
Strangers
The odds are hard, they let you down
No words written in the songs can save you
The silence drowns you, there's no way out

Falling down again.Pale little girl, Falling
Down again
Don't ask me if it hurts

She walks down the street, leaves fall at
Her feet
She loves to hear them crush
You call out her name
But she just looks the other way
She ain't got the time

La la la la la, Na na na na na, ha ha
Ha ha ha
You knock on the door, but she ain't ever at
Home
So you try the phone
It rings and it rings
Till you're so sick of that thing
But you can't wish her home
La la la la la, Na na na na na, ha
Ha ha ha ha

So you write her a letter
'Cause you can't think anything better
You're so proud of yourself
She tears it in two and throws it over her
Shoulder
'Cause she don't want bad luck

La la la la la, Na na na na na, ha ha ha ha
Ha
