Falling Face First Lyrics - Justin Nozuka

Young boy grows up in South Carolina 

Raised on "aint no point. This world's got nothin' for ya'" 

He goes missing like a 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 heard a breeze through the 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 

But please don't tell momma that it's coming for you 

I miss the way you look so sad when you're falling face first through the air [4x] 

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, when she's calling out, Momma's crying 

She's crying out blood 

Slowly dying 

She's calling out, when she's calling out 

I'm singin' 

I miss the way you look so sad when you're falling face first through the air [4x] 

The sun is setting while the moon is rising 

The stars are lightin' 

His heart is pounding 

He can feel it in his feet 

He can feel it in his throat 

He can feel it in his hands 

As he walks up to the edge 

He doesn't feel life anymore 

The sea upon the shore 

100 feet above the shore 

He drops the letter that he wrote 

I miss the way you look so sad when you're falling face first through the air [4x]
