From up high like a satellite 
 Are you lost among the stars? 
 Does it hurt? 
    Don't deny that I could be right 
 This was hopeless from the start 
 Have you learned?   
 Oh 
 You lose yourself 
 When you gain the whole world, now you know   
 Oh 
 It can hurt like hell 
 'Cause gravity can be so cruel   
 When you fall back to Earth 
 When you fall back to Earth 
 It's over, don't pretend 
 But I'll catch you in the end 
 As you fall back to Earth   
 Remember when you were innocent 
 You were wide-eyed as a child from the start 
 But your ascent somehow pulled you in 
 To the same old clichés that broke my heart   
 No 
 We lose ourselves 
 As we gain the whole world, we come to know   
 Oh 
 It hurts like hell 
 'Cause gravity can be so cruel   
 When you fall back to Earth 
 When you fall back to Earth 
 It's over, don't pretend 
 But I'll catch you in the end 
 As you fall back to Earth   
 This wicked world can change us 
 These lessons learned might save us 
 For those who bend to kiss the ground   
 When you fall back to Earth 
 When you fall back to Earth 
 It's over, don't pretend 
 But I'll catch you in the end 
 As you fall back to Earth   
 Do not be afraid 
 For I know your pain 
 I was there so long ago 
 But my dearest friend 
 I can lift you up again 
 Once you fall back to Earth 
 Once you fall back to Earth
