Well, I know it isn't easy but every move I make
It throws me down upon the ground
And I knew it would be hard but with every step I take
It spins me round and round and round
    
No, they didn't tell me
There might have been an easy way
They did not let me know
They did not have the decency to say
    
Now it's almost always falling
Yes, it's almost always falling
Down on me
    
And I must be so naïve 'cause every smiling face
Is just a smiling face to me
And I can't see through the lies that carefully disguise
What it is I am supposed to see
    
When the devil rolls the dice well
He always has that extra throw
And I've been lighting up my fuses
But I have no idea when they're going to blow
    
Now it's almost always falling
Yes, it's almost always falling
Down on me
    
Now the devil always wins and you're left standing
Wondering where the hell it is you are
And you made your own mistakes but sometimes the game
Is taken just that little bit too far
    
And you've rolled up both your sleeves
But the ace is nowhere to be found
And as you get up to walk away
You see it lying there face up on the ground
    
Now it's almost always falling
Yes, it's almost always falling
Down on me
