Gravity

Is that a bruise on your shoulder
Or the name of a friend
Did you cry when you told her
Or did you pretend
Nobody's hero
Ever gets thrown by the wind
Nobody's hero
Ever kicked them in the shins
You should know by now
Gravity loves to win

I spent some time with her sister
The one with the cane
She said it was an accident
With no one to blame
I tried to warn her
Don't turn you back again
I tried hard to show her
She should recognize the grin
You should know by now
Gravity killed her twin

I wrote a line about beauty
She wrapped it in tin
She took my picture of Eden
And soaked it with gin
It's as easy as falling forever down
It's so easy everything grows when you drown
You should know by now
Gravity stole her crown
