... He came out of nowhere
He took the world by storm
You crowned him 'King' & worshiped him
Like you've never done before
He started out a hero
Soon became a god
But even those who worshiped him
They never heard
They never heard him shout

... Falling down, I'm falling down!
The world has turned its back on me?
... & I'm falling, I'm falling down!

... They said that he had everything
They said he had it all
Nothing would ever hold him back
And he would never take a fall
Soon the rumours started
The cracks began to show
He'd hit his peak & left himself
With nowhere else
Nowhere else to go

... Falling down, I'm falling down!
The world has turned its back on me?
... & I'm falling, I'm falling down!

... And as his empire fell apart
He quickly lost control
He lost his grip on everything
His lifestyle took its toll
Friends became his enemies, he shut everybody out
His fall from grace was killing him
All he could do, all he could do was shout!

... Falling down, I'm falling down!
The world has turned its back on me?
... & I'm falling, I'm falling...
... Falling down, I'm falling down!
The world has turned its back on me?
... & I'm falling, I'm falling down!
