Crumbling down Seek safety in a doorway I feel the walls shake Falling falling under your gaze Warmth in your smile Left my world trembling Splintering and breaking apart reasoning Wave after wave, nerves carrying this seismic activity And I am quaking for your touch Unable to speak Unable to hold my balance Gripping onto the doorway, knuckles white Gaze to the floor, focusing Quivering lips, wavering breath I am in the doorway you have just crossed Clutching your arm you stop Looking at each other You know what I can’t say Pulling me close Tumbling, crumbling are these walls Heart tremors Love has come and shook my world upside down

Earthquake
Crumbling down Seek safety in a doorway I feel the walls shake Falling falling under your gaze Warmth in your smile Left my world trembling Splintering and breaking apart reasoning Wave after wave, nerves carrying this seismic activity And I am quaking for your touch Unable to speak Unable to hold my balance Gripping onto the doorway, knuckles white Gaze to the floor, focusing Quivering lips, wavering breath I am in the doorway you have just crossed Clutching your arm you stop Looking at each other You know what I can’t say Pulling me close Tumbling, crumbling are these walls Heart tremors Love has come and shook my world upside down
