A Graceful Fall - John Mellencamp

It’s not a graceful fall from dreams to the truth

There’s not a lot of hope here if you got nothing to lose

When it feels no good, when you’re flat on the ground

Yeah, the future’s not bright when you’re falling down

'Cause I’m sick of life, yeah, it’s easy to do

When everything is so hard has been handed to you

Yeah, I’m sick of life 'cause it’s lost, it’s found

I will see you in the next world if there is really one

Well, I’m not falling off the ladder, I’m just putting in my days

My pack is all empty and my aces won’t play

Yeah, I’m moving down the street and I’m going nowhere

It’s not a graceful fall when you don’t care

'Cause I’m sick of life and it’s easy to do

When everything is so hard has been handed to you

Yeah, I’m sick of life and it’s lost, it’s found

I’ll see you in the next world if there is really one

Yeah, I’m sick of life 'cause I’m falling down

I’ll see you in the next world if you’re still around
