Falling (feat. Alan Watts) Video (MV)

Well now really when we go back into falling in love
And say, it's crazy
Falling
You see?
We don't say "rising into love"
There is in it the idea of the fall
And it goes back, as a matter of fact, to extremely fundamental things

That there is always a curious tie at some point between the fall and the creation
Taking this ghastly risk is the condition of there being life
You see, for all life is an act of faith an act of gamble
The moment you take a step, you do so on an act of faith
Because you don't really know that the floor's not going to give under your feet
The moment you take a journey, what an act of faith
The moment that you enter into any kind of human undertaking in relationship, what an act of faith
See, you've given yourself up

But this is the most powerful thing that can be done
Surrender. See? And love is an act of surrender to another person
Total abandonment. I give myself to you
Take me. Do anything you like with me
See. So, that's quite mad because you see, it's letting things get out of control
All sensible people keep things in control
Watch it, watch it, watch it
Security? Vigilance? Watch it. Police? Watch it. Guards/Gods? Watch it
Who's going to watch the guards?
So, actually, therefore, the course of wisdom, what is really sensible
Is to let go, is to commit oneself, to give oneself up and that's quite mad
So we come to the strange conclusion that in madness lies sanity
