I look straight in the window try not to look below[00:00:15]
Pretend I'm not up here try counting sheep[00:00:23]
But the sheep seem to shower off this office tower[00:00:30]
Nine-point-eight straight down I can't stop my knees[00:00:37]
I wish I could fly[00:00:45]
From this building[00:00:47]
From this wall[00:00:49]
And if I should try[00:00:52]
Would you catch me if I fall [00:00:54]
My hands clench the squeegee my secular rosary[00:01:07]
Hang on to your wallet hang on to your rings[00:01:14]
Can't look below me or something might throw me[00:01:22]
Curse at the windstorms that October brings[00:01:29]
I look in the boardroom; a modern pharaoh's tomb[00:01:36]
I'd gladly swap places if they care to dive[00:01:44]
They're lined up at the window peer down into limbo[00:01:51]
They're frightened of jumping in case they survive[00:01:59]
I wish I could step from this scaffold[00:02:06]
Onto soft green pastures shopping malls or bed[00:02:10]
With my family and my pastor and my grandfather who's Dead[00:02:15]
Look straight in the mirror watch it come clearer[00:02:25]
I look like a painter behind all the grease[00:02:32]
But paintings creating and I'm just erasing[00:02:40]
A crystal-clear canvas is my masterpiece[00:02:47]
I wish I could fly[00:02:54]
From this building[00:02:56]
From this wall[00:02:58]
And if I should try[00:03:02]
Would you catch me if I fall [00:03:04]
I wish I could fly[00:03:09]
From this building[00:03:11]
From this wall[00:03:13]
And if I should try[00:03:17]
Would you catch me if I fall[00:03:18]
