the reasons why

i won't try to bring you down about my suicide

got no need to understand about my big surprise



oh i am falling through the sky

you remember this?

i am falling in their eyes

you remember the kiss?



i won't try to bring you down about my suicide

got no need to understand about my big surprise

i won't beg to hang you up about my love of life

if you promise not to sing about the reasons why



i am writing you a letter

getting better

can i see you?

when...

all the lights go out together

blame the weather

yeah the cold again

in the darkness for a second

i am sure i see them smiling then

i feel them calling me

yeah they are calling me...



and i am falling through the stars

you remember now?

yeah i am falling in their arms

you remember how?

oh i am falling through the sky

you remember this ?

i am falling in their eyes

you remember the kiss?



i won't try to pull you in about my sacrifice

makes no sense to get upset about the other side

i won't beg to put you out about my right to die

if you promise not to sing about the reasons why



i am calling you at midnight

feeling alright...can i tell you?

when?

on the line no sound but my words

must be night birds on the wire again

in the silence for a second

i am sure i hear them laughing then

i feel them calling me

yeah they are calling me...



i am falling through the stars

you remember now

yeah, i am falling in their arms

you remember how

i am falling through the sky

you remember this

i am falling in their eyes

you remember the kiss



"we know"

they said

"you're holding on

to nothing left of something gone"



"we know"

they said

"in letting go

of fear and dread

and all you know

you'll lose the need of certainty

and make-believe eternity

to find the true reality

in beautiful infinity...."



but i won't try to bring you down about my suicide

if you promise not to sing about the reasons why
