Lyrics for Song: As The World Falls Down
Lyrics for Album: Labyrinth [1989]
There's such a sad love
Deep in your eyes.
A kind of pale jewel
Open and closed
Within your eyes.
I'll place the sky
Within your eyes.
There's such a fooled heart
Beatin' so fast
In search of new dreams.
A love that will last
Within your heart.
I'll place the moon
Within your heart.
As the pain sweeps through,
Makes no sense for you.
Every thrill is gone.
Wasn't too much fun at all,
But I'll be there for you-ou-ou
As the world falls down.
Falling.
Falling down.
Falling in love.
I'll paint you mornings of gold.
I'll spin you Valentine evenings.
Though we're strangers 'til now,
We're choosing the path
Between the stars.
I'll lay my love
Between the stars.
As the pain sweeps through,
Makes no sense for you.
Every thrill is gone.
Wasn't too much fun at all,
But I'll be there for you-ou-ou
As the world falls down.
Falling
As the world falls down.
Falling
As the world falls down.
Falling.
Falling.
Falling.
Falling in love
As the world falls down.
Falling.
Falling.
Falling.
Falling.
Falling in love
As the world falls down.
Makes no sense at all.
Makes no sense to fall.
Falling
As the world falls down.
Falling.
Falling in love
As the world falls down.
Falling.
Falling
Falling in love
As the world falls down.

As The World Falls Down
David Bowie's "As The World Falls Down" serves as a haunting centerpiece on the 1986 album *Labyrinth*, marking a significant shift in his musical direction toward a darker, more theatrical rock sound. Recorded during the height of his Ziggy Stardust persona's legacy, the track blends gothic rock elements with dramatic vocals to explore themes of existential dread and societal collapse. The song stands as a testament to Bowie's ability to craft immersive sonic landscapes, utilizing layered instrumentation and intense vocal delivery to evoke a sense of impending doom. It remains a defining piece of his late-period discography, reflecting the artist's continued evolution beyond glam rock into a more mature and psychologically complex style that influenced countless subsequent acts in alternative and gothic rock genres. |
