Jules, Gary - Falling Awake Lyrics
Eagle in the dark
Feathers in the pages.
Monkeys in my heart
Are rattling their cages.
And another ghost to follow
Said "it's only up to you"
And that's the hardest pill to swallow.
You never get to choose
You live on what they sent you
And you know they're gonna use
The things you love against you
One foot in the grave
There's never time to save
You're paying by the hour
And that's just the way it goes
Falling awake
And that's just the way it goes
Slipping through the bars
Aware of the danger
Of riding in the cars
Taking candy from strangers
And it's never out of hand
Never out of pocket
I'm supersonic man
Do you wanna buy a rocket?
And that's just the way it goes
Falling awake, falling awake
Oh that's just the way it goes
Falling awake, falling awake
Eagle in the dark
Feathers in the pages
Monkeys in my heart
Are rattling their cages
I could learn to play the game
I could learn to run the hustle
If I only had the brains
The money or the muscle

Damn. This is a masterpiece people should listen to this.
Sitting on stony shore, looking at the Sea and dazing away against the Sunset waves.
This song is of Gary's absolute marvels
Death of George O'Malley's father of Gray's Anatomy💔
This song really makes me miss the classic Greys Anatomy; Meredith, Izzy, George, Alex, Derek, Richard, Bailey, Cristina, Preston, and Callie
Death is inevitable
We all die
Maybe I'm next in line
Your mothers Vagina just bit the dust. Someone blew that ol thing out.
Sinto muito a falta do meu pai...
Grey's anatomy😍😍🇧🇷
Jap ich wache auch jeden Tag ein.
I found this song through grays anatomy 😔
R.I.P. Bob Verne, Krista Vernoff's father.
You don't need money or muscle. Just believe in yourself.
why is this so underrated ?? this is really a mad world
Rest in paradise, Bob Verne
I used to listen to this when I was 17 and depression crippled my life. now I'm 23 and doing much better.
Going back and forth between Death Cab for Cutie and Gary Jules. 😂
You're sad and you're in pain and you feel so tired you want it all to end but there is a little bit of hope at the end of the tunnel.
This this the pussy national anthem
Greys anatomy 😍
his voice is so nice that I nearly cried.
Beautiful! Just bought it...Thank you! <3
Great song!
Gary Jewells brought me here
imma cry this reminds me of o'malley
i wish people knew that gary jules is more than just mad world. this in particular is such an amazing song.
Does anyone else get the impression that the lyricist may have been influences by "A Handmaids Tale".
Nancy Bryant
mad world
My good taste in music brought me here, not fucking Grey's Anatomy or wathever.
popular media can be a great way to discover new songs and bands.
hell i discovered him through the mad world meme a while back, now i'm a huge fan of his beautiful work.
don't demonize people for discovering music in unconventional ways, it makes you look like a massive douchebag.
What a beautiful song. Thanks.
beautiful song
Cada vez que escucho esta canción, un día helado y lluvioso me ronda el cuerpo...y todo se siente tan triste.
Life Unexpected
Feeling makes us human; being human doesn't mean we feel.
His voice is straight from his soul, hence why it reaches so deep 😿
remember grey's anatomy 😢
R.I.P. O'Malley
Grey's anatomy keeps bringing me back here.I swear I'm not crying:(
Does anyone else thinks this is a critique to the society? BEAUTIFUL SONG btw :)
GARY IS BEST FUCKING EVER
You know the other day while I was driving somewhere I realized what that statement meant..."I don't know how to exist in a world with out him" You see my mom passed away Jan. of this year and afew months later my dad just gave up and I lost him too. I've always had my parents to talk to and now I feel very lost.
Im sorry for you hope You can feel better :(
Take care of yourself, if you can, Ome.
Try not to take it personally, stay with friends, make beautiful things, and listen to your music.
Ome McGuire STAY STRONG FRIEND , I know how it feels to lose a mother .
супер, сори что по русски
This is art
His voice is so calming.
verdade
the way he sings sounds like a bedtime song.
Role reversal, a father's lullaby and consolation.
que lindo tema <3
Repeat, Repeat, Repeat, Repeat, Repeat.....
bravo pour mad world cette chanson me donne des frisson la musique est trop belle et les paroles sont aussi très fortes
really i like the music!
this guy is amazing
This song made me cry when George O'malley's father died and when Lux found her luggage and teddy bear and started crying. :'( <3 u Lux and George!
Eagle in the dark
Feathers in the pages.
Monkeys in my heart
Are rattling their cages.
Found a way to blue
And another ghost to follow
Said its only up to you
And thats the hardest pill to swallow.
You never get to choose
You live on what they sent you
And you know they're gonna use
The things you love against you
One foot in the grave
One foot in the shower
Theres never time to save
Youre paying by the hour
And thats just the way it goes
Falling awake
And thats just the way it goes
Slipping through the bars
Aware of the danger
Of riding in the cars
Taking candy from strangers
And its never out of hand
Never out of pocket
Im supersonic man
Do you wanna buy a rocket?
And thats just the way it goes
Falling awake, falling awake
Oh thats just the way it goes
Falling awake, falling awake
Eagle in the dark
Feathers in the pages
Monkeys in my heart
Are rattling their cages
I could learn to play the game
I could learn to run the hustle
If I only had the brains
The money or the muscle
🏛😘 Thanks
Thank You!!
Nice lyrics
i love his music but so hard to find cds. and random question and hope some can answer. what his music consider
+Kristopher Remingtom Go to google and search Gary Jules CD's and go on amazon <3
So Simple I love To listen in this song when its raining and when im alone
I know exactly what you mean
Dwarfboner 5001 You win the most creative and sexual youtube name of 2016. Well done.
Brings so many memories.
I've been listening to this song for about 5 years now ☺️ it's funny how long it's been, the stuff I've been through and how much I've grown I guess you could say this song paved my life. And I'm still not even done with my teen years.
Glad to see you have the foresight to know there's still a lot of changes to come. I don't think I had that back then.
NiNjA32kIlLs are you still listening to this?
NiNjA32kIlLs I can relate
I don't know how to exist in a world where my dad doesn't
Man up we all gota go threw make him PROUD
Bro I feel the same about my mom she died when I was 14 I am 27 now
@Mr Reaper don't underestimate what a mother gives you... I am a male (this is my wife's account) I lost her at 14 and she was my best friend and the person I loved the most... I can't stand not being able to hug her and tell her I love her she was the most important person in my life.
@Катя Ятак no people help you grow and develope
@Rotorage All kids want from their parents is acceptance and love
I could sleep to this...his voice is just amazing and I dunno how to explain it its just smooth/soothing
Did Grey's Anatomy bring anyone else here
got to be kidding me
Giada G. Yes😂
Grey's anatomy has brought a lot of music to me that I probably wouldn't have heard. Love this song
謝謝這首歌
Remembering Life Unexpected :(
My cat loves this song. <3
So do I, of course.
+CandyCake awe
If only...i had the brain or the money...yeah...i dont know anymore
RIP Harold O'Malley
Lol, good message !!!
Dude your voice is my yoga
I absolutely love this song !! And Gary's voice... wow.. wish i could see him again in concert ;)
this is the most beautiful song i ever heard <3
Gary jules is more than Mad world, people
@Juan Carlos oO There was no joke..
If what I said was too hard to understand for you, pls just forget I replied to you. I didn't expect to be talking to an empty shell.
exactly!! but as much as I honestly hate to admit it, I hadn't heard a lick about gary jules until mad world either. :-\
i found him through the meme but ended up finding another fav artist!
Gary Jules has never been Mad World to me. Mad World is Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith.
I think that almost all the songs of him are grate
After listening to his depressing mad world this made my fucking day happy
❤😍❤😍❤😍❤😍
Grey's Anatomy brought me here
Music like this.. deserves more than 500,000 views, but 5 million.
love this song
His best work.
Better that Mad World. Listen it at least 5 times per day for 2 years.
Found this song when I needed it the most
mad world got me here.... i regret it now cos this is absolute shit
Billions of Years of Evolution and the result is THAT? :D
@THEJAYMAN212 nah, I said that to Bob Farley
Dude not cool
hope your mind changed since three years ago, this is a beautiful song.
I'm going threw the hardest time in my life. Everything I do is wrong everything I don't do is right. All I've ever wanted was to have a true friend. This is the song that gets me threw my entire day. Anyone who thinks this song is stupid don't comment because I see the nasty comments every day and there not helping. This song though...
dreck hey he was just correcting grammar.
hope you're ok, mate
I hope after five years your life got better
Fuck you talking about? Nasty comments? By now you've got a grip on yourself or you're still wallowing in self pity, like the majority of us...
The beauty in life is learning some are above their time like this Guy here and may I say life is 90% how you react is 10% we are all beautiful in a way but as life goes on it takes its toll people react differently dont stop being beautiful
Gary, your tunes.. its exactly how i feel. Thank you.
THIS has to be on the walking dead!!!!!!
I feel for you bro :(
losing people hurts alot but you can think about the good things with her to! think about the happy days you used to sing this song with her, take care
I know the feeling you had we people can all be so strong and big on the outside but on the inside we can be hurt by just a little thing, i hope you allready find a new girl to spend your life with?
i bet you're already over her now :)
This song can calm me down in no time.
Gary actually intended for this to be an optimistic song. I guess everyone interprets music differently.
No I'm not ok, you have no clue what we have been through, she was my life there's not a day that past when I don't think about her, when she past away, for 4 months I would cry myself to sleep and wake up with no meaning to live life. Now its ever so often I wake up with a tear down my cheek
ohh :'((( sad story....
Beautiful
Sometimes we - at least I - know that it does not really help... but it gives you a feeling that it might get better.. and every minute that's less worse is good.. it's not about to be happy, just about to be less sad for a moment, even if it may be worse after..
whiskey aids nothing but more sadness. Just face it one night and be done with it! I wish you much luck. :)
If this makes no sense it's because i'm drinking whiskey lol :D
All injuries, the emotional injuries included, heal over time. Every day I try to see new possibilities, instead of focusing on the downsides. You always have to work for happiness, during some periods you just have work a little harder. Thank you very much for your concern- you're a good person.
Thanks for the support youTube! I feel much better now... :)
This was my best friends favorite song,every time it would come on it makes me think of her, we would sing it together on a happy,sad or mad day and it would get us through but now I can't hear this song without crying, she died a couple years back, I'll never forget her...I miss u :'(
matthew lots of wonderful memories with your best friend intertwined with rhis lovely song .... hope that you are able to recall that whenever you hear this
did she say why?
