Motion Sickness

Instrumental Intro

Verse 1

Backseat of a borrowed car

The road bends and my stomach turns

Every mile I try to put behind

Comes crawling up my throat again

You said the highway heals the hurt

You said the daylight dries it out

But the windshield tilts and so do I

And I am smaller than I was

Pre-Chorus

Hold the handle hold my breath

Count to ten and fail the test

Something in me won't sit still

Something in me never will

Chorus

I keep falling when I try to stand

Falling with my feet on solid ground

I keep falling and I don't know how

To move on without the ground caving in

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Falling falling

Oh-oh oh-oh

Falling falling

Verse 2

Morning light is cruel and clean

Shows me everything I haven't fixed

I rehearse a version of myself

Who walks a straight and steady line

But my body keeps the score

Every corner every door

Spins me like a child's toy

Till I forget which way is up

Pre-Chorus

Grip the seat and grip my pride

Swallow down the rising tide

Something in me won't be still

Something in me never will

Chorus

I keep falling when I try to stand

Falling with my feet on solid ground

I keep falling and I don't know how

To move on without the ground caving in

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Falling falling

Oh-oh oh-oh

Falling falling

Bridge

Maybe healing isn't straight

Maybe it's a winding thing

Maybe I should let the sway

Carry me instead of fight

Chorus

I keep falling when I try to stand

Falling with my feet on solid ground

I keep falling but I'm still here now

Learning how to fall and not give in

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh oh-oh

Falling falling

Oh-oh oh-oh

Still here falling
