If I should fall
Barenaked Ladies

Look straight in the window
Try not to look below
Pretend I’m not up here
I try counting sheep
The sheep seem to shower
Off this office tower
It’s not pointing straight down
Can’t stop my knees

I wish I could fly
From this building
From this wall
And if I should try
Would you catch me
If I fall

My hands clench the squeegie
The seculars ring
Hang on to your wallet
Hang on to your rings
I cant look below me
Something will throw me

I curse at the wind storms
That October brings
I look straight in to the boardroom
A modern pharoh’s tomb
I’d gladly swap places
If they care to die
They line up at the window
Stare down into limbo
Frightened of jumping
In case they survive

I wish I could step
From this scaffold
Onto soft green pastures
Shopping malls
Then with my family
With my pastor
And my grandfather whose dead

I look straight in the mirror
Watch it become clearer
Look like a painter
Behind all the grease
But the paintings creating
And I’m just erasing
Crystal clear canvas
Is my masterpeice

I wish I could fly
From this building
From this wall
And if I should try
Would you catch me
If I fall

I wish I could fly
from this building
From this wall
and if I should try
Would you catch me
If I fall

When I fall
When I fall
When I fall
When I fall
When I…..hmmm..mmmm.
