The Wilhelm Scream Lyrics

I don't know about my dreams
I don't know about my dreamin' anymore.
All that I know is
I'm falling, falling, falling, falling.
Might as well fall in.

I don't know about my love.
I don't know about my loving anymore.
All that I know...

    I remember James Blake saying at a Bristol show at the o2 that the song was an adaptation of a song his father sung/wrote. I have a recording of him saying this I believe.

    It's vunerability.

    James Blake is trying to express that he is unsure of his dreams, his love or his future in that case. He wants to just fall in, fall in, fall in, and give up. As the song progresses and the synthesizers start to run together, it's as if you are falling in as well into this haze of sound. It ends really strong to... Great song, and there are a lot of interpretations.
