Near and Far
STAIRCASE All I ever wanted was to keep you from tripping / And all I ever wanted was to let us be living / Living in the air, never coming near to landing / Staying
with a friend, feelings of the end notwithstanding / Falling down, I’m falling / Mentally I stumble to the top of the staircase / Physically I crumble; suddenly, the world’s
gone M.I.A. / Spirit isn’t there; left a marker where I’ll find it / Following in time, when the stars align I can shine it / and I’m falling down the staircase
