Falling Lyrics by Delia Derbyshire, Barry Bermange

The Dreams

0

[Delia Derbyshire (Barry Bermange and others)]
Suddenly I'm falling
I'm falling upright
I was falling and twisting
I'm falling upright

Slow, twist, head over, seat, stretching up, increasing in speed
Mouth open wide but no sound
Its in space

The complete feeling of space and nothingness
Nothingness
Started off by floating
Held up by my garnets which had alright held me back
Somehow I started to accelerate, gather speed and I accelerated more and more and more my head was down I was speeding downwards into some great, hit, accelerating all the time and increasing in speed, tumbling and falling no more floating at all just tumbling and falling and, accelerating all the time faster and faster
I fell as If I was falling forever
Not quickly, but I am definitely going down down down and I know that nothing, nothing can stop me
But I try sometimes to, think in myself "Well this is lovely you should be enjoying this" but I'm so panic stricken
I know this is the end and I've finished and I'm just sinking, sinking into this great big black void
I see no clouds at all

I was falling though this water, it was all around me this water and I didn't like it
And I was falling I got my legs in there and my hands out
It was all around me this water and I didn't like it
I got my legs in there and my hands out and my arms outstretched and suddenly all this water, became full of other people and other things all falling full of other people and other things all falling and chairs and tables and things like this and all these people are all floating downwards though this water all going downwards the same as I was people like me with their arms outstretched and their legs all going downwards the same as I was and chairs and tables and things like this and all these people are all floating downwards though this water people like me with their arms outstretched and their legs and I put my arms out and I tried to catch hold of them
And I tried to catch hold of them

All I can remember is falling into water which was very dark and very deep
All floating downwards though this water all going downwards the same as I was
Accelerating all the time faster and faster, accelerating all the time and increasing in speed, I was speeding downwards
Sinking, sinking into this great big black void
Reeling down into, the, [?], reeling down into into a sort of great big hole
Its was a long way down
Its was a long way down
And I felt my self falling
Its was a long way down, but I can't do anything about it
Fell off the edge of the mountain, which was very dark
It seemed to go down and down and down
It seemed to go down and down and down

Its was a long way down, but I can't do anything about it, which was very dark and very deep, It was very dark and very deep
It seemed to go down and down and down
It seemed to go down and down and down
I'm falling upright
And I've finished and I'm just sinking, sinking into this great big black void
I see no clouds at all
Its in space
The complete feeling of space and nothingness
Everything is black and I've fallen fallen fallen and I know that If I don't pull myself up, If I don't forcefully stop myself up, I'll die If I reach the bottom
So I, make a tremendous effort to stop myself I must stop myself doing this I, jump in the air and met the great big jump
I then I stop dying
The complete feeling of space and nothingness
I see no clouds at all
