Peter Gabriel Lyrics

Downside-Up Lyrics

I looked up at the tallest building

Felt it falling down

I could feel my balance shifting

Everything was moving around

These streets so fixed and solid

A shimmering haze

And everything that I relied on disappeared

Downside up, upside down

Take my weight from the ground

Falling deep in the sky

Slipping in the unknown

All the strangers look like family

All the family looks so strange

The only constant I am sure of

Is this accelerating rate of change

Downside up, upside down

Take my weight off the ground

Falling deep in the sky

Slipping in the unknown

I stand here

Watch you spinning

Until I am drawn in

A centripetal force

You pull me in

Pull me in

Pull me in

Pull me in

Pull me in

Pull me in

Downside up

Upside down

Take my weight off the ground

Falling deep in the sky

Slipping into the unknown
