Falling Through the Shadows
Tyler, The Creator

Verse 1:
Yo, in this cipher like a specter on the scene,
Heart masked up, but the feelings run clean,
Got this girl in my arms, but her eyes in the past,
Thought I’d be the future, but she’s movin’ too fast.

Chillin' in the moonlight, we vibin’ so strong,
“Who’s this on your phone?” Got me feelin’ so wrong,
Scrollin’ through memories of another man’s game,
Feelin’ like a pawn, just a piece in her frame.

Chorus:
Falling through the shadows, can’t escape the glow,
She’s lookin’ at old flames while I’m watchin’ love grow,
Spinnin' through the echoes, she’s lost in her mind,
But I’m here on the sidelines, just tryna rewind.

Verse 2:
Half-cocked, I’m droppin’ rhymes like I’m DOOM,
Craftin’ every word while I’m stuck in this gloom,
Every beat a confession, my heart’s on display,
But she’s caught in a loop, like a song that won’t play.

Whispers of the past, got her feeling the burn,
Tryna hold on tight, but she’s making me yearn,
For a love that’s unwavering, but her heart’s on repeat,
Like a vinyl that’s scratched, feelin’ lost in defeat.

Chorus:
Falling through the shadows, can’t escape the glow,
She’s lookin’ at old flames while I’m watchin’ love grow,
Spinnin' through the echoes, she’s lost in her mind,
But I’m here on the sidelines, just tryna rewind.

Verse 3:
Got me building these walls, but they’re made out of sand,
Every gesture of love met with a shake of her hand,
She’s lost in the maze, just a flicker of hope,
As I’m unravelin’ threads, tryin’ hard not to choke.

In this labyrinth of love, I’m the Minotaur’s sound,
Just a ghost in her heart while her ex sticks around,
Artistry in agony, I’m paintin’ it raw,
Hoping she’ll remember what it’s like to adore.

Outro:
So here’s to the battles, the struggle we face,
Falling through the shadows, in love’s twisted chase.
I’ll keep spittin’ truth, till the light finds a way,
In this DOOM-ed romance, I’m just tryna stay.
