falling face first

justin nozuka

young boy grows up in south carolina

raised on ain't no point

this worlds got nothing for ya

he goes missing every blue moon for about an hour

comes back home to an empty house full of silence that grows louder and louder and louder

deep at night depression creeps through his window

and he re-reads and re writes the letter that he wrote

back and forth voices tell him secrets

do not

do not

do not

yes do

please don't tell momma death is coming for you

mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air

mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air

mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air

mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air

young boy goes to sleep and wakes up a man

blue moon comes back around

but he don't turn back to take his mother's hand

momma's crying

she's crying out blood

slowly dying

she's calling out

she's calling out

momma's crying

she's crying out blood

slowly dying

she's calling out

she keeps calling out

i'm singing

mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air

mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air

mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air

mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air

the sun is setting

blue moon is rising

the stars are lightened

his heart is pounding

he can feel it in his feet

and he can feel it in his throat

he can feel it in his hands

as he walks up to the edge

he doesn't fear death anymore

the sea upon the shore

one hundred feet above the shore

he drops the letter that he wrote

mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air

mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air

mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air

mister why you look so sad while you're falling face first through the air
