[my-chaos-radio]

Release: December 1, 1983

Lyrics:

Wake up

Don't sleep

(Dreams become so real to me)

Wake up

Don't sleep

(While the night is young)

I lay down to rest my head

My soul to keep the night I dread

It's no dream

Slumber comes as darkness falls

And shadows dance across my walls

It's no dream

While the night is young

But I never say

(Don't sleep!)

My dreams become so real to me

Catch me I'm (falling)

Down again

I know it's a dream but just the same

There's a face before my eyes are closed but I can recognize the danger

Slumber comes as darkness falls

And shadows dance across my walls

It's no dream

While the night is young

But I never say

(Don't sleep!)

My dreams become so real to me I

Catch me I'm (falling)

Down again

I know it's a dream but just the same

Catch me I'm falling, falling

Aah...

Aah...

Catch me I'm falling

Down again

I know it's a dream but just the same

Catch me I'm falling

Down again

I know it's a dream but just the same

Catch me I'm falling

Catch me I'm falling

Catch me I'm f-f-f-f-f-f-falling

I'm falling

Catch me I'm falling

I'm falling

Songwriter:

Catch me I'm falling

I'm falling

Catch me I'm falling

I'm falling

Catch me I'm falling

I'm falling

Catch me I'm falling

I'm falling

Catch me I'm falling...

i ran out of tags on my last post and it deleted a few of them and i knew it was going to do that but hoped that it wouldn't and i lost them so let me try to sum up because like i'm aware i'm making a mess of it.

but it's mostly - your mental illness may be scary, but you can't let fear of your mental illness - or how you might be with it at your (its) worse - trap you. you should understand it! you should get help! but you can't let your fear of it control your life.

because the original - catch me i'm falling / please hear me calling / catch me before it's too late - is kind of about that sensation of learning about your illness and where it's coming from and your trauma and how sometimes you feel worse before you get better.

but sometimes you have to fall. sometimes you have to accept the fall. or even the possibility of falling. and sometimes accepting the fall is part of the process to flying and surviving.

because sometimes you can spend so much time and effort just trying to keep the plates all spinning that you don't - you can't - get better.

actually we're going to talk about Folie more because it makes me frickin insane that the two songs that took lyrics from to you unfinished are Coffee's For Closers and w.a.m.s. and in both cases the words are twisted to make them so incredibly painful. because to you is basically to my reading a huge love letter to the band's through all their ups and downs, "all us believers still believe every time we sing "two more weeks'," "you put my head in such a flurry," "send my love, to everyone above" etc etc etc and then not only does CFC take "preaching electric to a microphone stand" and pair it with the words I will never believe in anything again, but w.a.m.s. pulls "worry worry you put my head in such a flurry/ freckle freckle what makes you so special" from the heart of a poem about a band that is also a family and then IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARD says I'm gonna leave you, I'm gonna teach you how we're all alone. everything about the spirit of to you unfinished is flipped on its head, recontextualized and handed back poisoned. Folie is almost a breakup album and What A Catch, Donnie sounds like a farewell going into a hiatus that no one knew if they'd come off of. the way to you unfinished fits in feels almost like the same sentiment behind I Don't Care, lyrics taken and twisted around and pointed back, extra sharp, extra venomous, without concern for the harm caused. Pete going down with the ship, maybe. my love and hate for you are infinite, etc etc etc. do you get what I'm saying here?? *shaking you* do you get it?!
