Lyrics
I don't tell anyone about the way you hold my hand
I don't tell anyone about the things that we have planned
I won't tell anybody
Won't tell anybody
They want to push me down
They want to see you fall down

Won't tell anybody that you turn the world around
I won't tell anyone that your voice is my favorite sound
Won't tell anybody
Won't tell anybody
They want to see us fall
They want to see us fall down

I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down

Don't believe the things you tell yourself so late at night and
You are your own worst enemy
You'll never win the fight
Just hold on to me
I'll hold on to you
It's you and me up against the world
It's you and me

I don't believe anything, don't trust anyone but me no
But I believe you when you say we're never gonna fall
Hand behind my neck
Arm around my waist
Never let me hit the ground
You'll never let me crash

I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down

I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of
I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of
I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of
I won't fall out of love
I'll fall into you

I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down

I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down

AAAAH THIS IS SO GREAT! You did such a good job of showcasing their relationship and GINNY and just, the song was so great!

[thingswithwings]

THIS VID IS SO GOOD. I have watched it a bunch of times now and I love it more each time. Lillian's faaaaaace, especially at the end. Augh my feelings

[were_duck]

AHHH This is so great, I love how the subject of the song evolves through each verse, you do just a great job of showcasing the complex relationships in the show! Especially Ginny being Lillian's parachute at the end, oh wow OUCH.

[gorgeousnerd]

Gosh, what a great vid. I loved the whole thing, but Ginny and Lillian at the end...my heart.

[cupidsbow]

Lovely.

[violace]

So good!

<3 This vid is made of love <3
What I admire most about it, aside from the truly excellent editing, is the way it mirrors Virginia's relationships with Bill and with Lillian to show how the latter is based in respect, rather than idolization/objectification, and how it's so much healthier (which is really kind of tragic, considering, well . . .).

[felis]

I don't know the show, but I really like this vid and the poignant difference between the relationships here. The editing is good throughout the whole thing, but I especially love the rhythm of your cuts at the beginning.

[franzeska]

I love the progression from one to the other.
