Gravity Lyrics by Lou Reed

Inspired by the film Nanking

0

[Verse 1]
Gravity is always pulling us down
Gravity is always pullin' us down
Gravity is always pullin' us down
Pullin' us down, pullin' us down

[Verse 2]
Gravity makes you lower than this
What could make you lower than this?
Gravity pulls you lower than this
Lower than this, lower than this
What could you do, and what could you say?
What could you do, and what could you say?
What could you do, and what could you say?
It's gravity, gravity

[Verse 3]
Eden in the garden behind the wall
There's no protection, at all
Listen to the screaming and listen to them holler
Gravity, gravity
See the love... or squalor

[Verse 4]
Gravity, gravity
A law of nature, gravity
Gravity, oh gravity
There's nothing lower than gravity
Pull to the left. Pull to the right
Gravity, all day, all night
Some kill this, and some rape that
And some are... somehow worse than that

[Verse 5]
Gravity, zoom zoom zoom
Gravity keeps us from the moon
From the stars, down to the earth
Gravity is what it's worth
War, war
You can't get enough of war
War, war
You can't get enough of war
War, war, war, war
All our lives, that's all we saw

[Verse 6]
Gravity
War, war, war, war
Our true God's the god of war
Gravity just pullin' us down
Gravity just pullin' us down
Gravity just pullin' us down
Gravity, gravity
You can't get away from gravity
Gravity, gravity
You can't get away from gravity
