Marianne, I'm Falling Songtext
She wakes up in the morning light
Her eyes are dark, her skin is white
She's not the girl she used to be

I wonder what's inside her head
To make her say those things she said
Well you know how it can be

Marianne
Take my hand
I'm slipping backwards, Marianne
Marianne, oh Marianne
Take my hand and lead me home, Marianne

Her friends all say it's just a laugh
They take another photograph
She sends it home across the sea
She messed up all her mother's plans
They sent her off to Switzerland
Where she's got everything she needs

Marianne
Take my hand
I'm slipping backwards, Marianne
Marianne, Marianne
Take my hand and lead me home, Marianne

Marianne, I'm falling
Marianne, I'm falling
In the darkness of her room
She reaches for a spoon
Feeds her body dreams enough to spare
Her eyes reflect the morning light
Death was an oversight
Life was a cross she had to bear

Marianne
Take my hand
I'll lead you home, Marianne
Marianne, oh Marianne
Take my hand
I'm slipping backwards, Marianne
Marianne, I'm falling
Oh Marianne, I'm falling
