[Verse 1]
Is this real life? I'm uncertain
All my life I've run from hurtin'
All my friends and myself once again
But this ain't life, this is survival
Half my thoughts are suicidal
Better now, I'm in denial again
[Pre-Chorus]
So we went lookin' for a quiet life, trophy wives
All strung out from cocaine nights and we're still fallin'
Still fallin' through a quiet life, family ties
All undone with alibis and we're still fallin'
[Chorus]
Still fallin' through a quiet life
Yeah, we're still fallin' through a quiet life
Yeah, we're still fallin' through a quiet life
Yeah, we're still fallin' through a quiеt life
Yeah we'rе still fallin'
[Verse 2]
In the compound, hearin' static
All my vices turn to habits
Breakdown round the corner, clear as day

So we went lookin' for a quiet life, trophy wives
All strung out from cocaine nights and we're still fallin'
Still fallin' through a quiet life, family ties
All undone with alibis and we're still fallin'
[Chorus]
Still fallin' through a quiet life
Yeah, we're still fallin' through a quiet life
Yeah, we're still fallin' through a quiet life
Yeah, we're still fallin' through a quiet life
[Pre-Chorus]
So we went lookin' for a quiet life, trophy wives
All strung out from cocaine nights and we're still fallin'
Still fallin' through a quiet life, family ties
All undone with alibis and we're still fallin'
[Chorus]
Still fallin' through a quiet life
Yeah, we're still fallin' through a quiet life
Yeah, we're still fallin' through a quiet life
Yeah, we're still fallin' through a quiet life
Yeah, we're still fallin'
