LYRICS - ENGLISH TRANSLATION (translations by @translatingTXT)
I turned my back on heaven
Fall from the sky
Maybe I'll miss it for good
That sweet mirage
Pain on my skin
I prepared to die
Increasing my speed
Down to earth like a meteorite
My fate, come and kiss me
I just keep on chasing that feeling
Even if I'm broken, leave me
I just keep on chasing
Chasing that feeling
Chasing that feeling
Chasing that feeling
It's all I know, it's all I know
The time when I lost my way
I was lost like a child
Finally I saw the truth, yeah
And I feel so alive
Growing pains all over my body
Reference to the opening track of the album 'Growing Pain' which uses the metaphor of freefalling to represent the uncertainties and loss of control that come with maturing (i.e. leaving Neverland).
Feels like I'm on fire
Even if it hurts a little
Burn and fall like a shooting star
My fate, come and kiss me
I just keep on chasing that feeling
Even if I'm broken, leave me
I just keep on chasing
Chasing that feeling
Chasing that feeling
Chasing that feeling
It's all I know, it's all I know
I'm chasing
Chasing
I'm chasing
I turn my back on heaven
Fall from the sky
And everything's gonna bе alright
My fate, come and kiss me
I just keep on chasing that feeling
Even if I'm broken, leave me
I just keep on chasing
Chasing that feeling
Chasing that feeling
Chasing that feeling
It's all I know, it's all I know
I keep chasing, chasing
I'm chasing
Chasing
Chasing that feeling
