Air Catcher Lyrics

I don't fall slow like I used to
I fall straight down
You've stolen my air catcher
That kept me safe and sound

My parachutes will guide me
Safely to ground
But now the cord's not working
And I see you staring me down

I won't fall in
Love with falling
I will try to avoid
Those eyes

Oh
I think you would beat
The moon in a pretty contest
And the moon just happened to be
The very first thing that I missed

I was doing fine on my own
And there wasn't much I lacked
But you've stolen my air catcher
And I don't know if I want it back

I won't fall in
Love with falling
I will try to avoid
Those eyes

'Cause I'm not sure
I want to give you
Tools that can destroy
My heart

And I just don't say
What you want to hear
So I'll write my fears
And I don't believe
In talking just to breathe
And falling selfishly

I won't fall in
Love with falling
I will try to avoid
Those eyes

But now I'm here
To give you words
As tools that can destroy
My heart

What is the Meaning of Air Catcher?

This song is a beautiful metaphor for the fear and vulnerability that comes with falling in love. The singer compares his heart to an "air catcher," a safety device that has been stolen, leaving him exposed and at risk of falling too fast. He's conflicted, unsure if he wants to recover his protection or surrender to the fall. The lyrics hint at past heartbreaks, making him wary of opening up again. But there's also an undeniable attraction - he can't help but acknowledge the beauty of the person he's falling for. It's a delicate dance between self-preservation and desire, something many can relate to when navigating relationships. 💔 #LoveIsComplicated #HeartbreakAndHealing
