lyrics

TRANSCRIPT:

The higher up I get, the farther back the winds push me.

(I'm always the shortest one in my dreams.)

Once, I almost made it to the top. That's when the avalanche came.

(I often think about life in terms of intangibles. | How do you mean? | Well, for instance, my favorite song is out there somewhere, and I still haven't heard it. What If I never do? *laugh* That's healthy, right?)

I should have been brought down with it. Instead, I'm the sole survivor. The inheritant of a dirty-white wasteland.

(But are creature comforts enough if I don't have another creature to comfort?)

So do I keep climbing? Or do I turn back and embrace the familiar? Lather, rinse, repeat...

(Oh, yeah. Give the word, and I'll cry on command. A real-life tragedy, and my eyes are as dry as the sand.)

My ribs are flecked with bruises. I'm tired.

(I've been loved and I've been loathed. I think I prefer just being tolerated.)

If this is all that awaits me at the top, I think I'll stay right here. And sleep.

("Tonight". It means millions of things to millions of people; paints millions of pictures. It's a word of infinite possibility. Just not for me. Not tonight. | And why do you say that? | *laugh* I don't know.)

I was always ill-prepared.

This is all going to end badly.
