about
This track is a plea to myself. I was judging someone close to me on something I had no right to, thinking I was somehow better, or not susceptible to the same weaknesses. Of course, I was very wrong. We spend a lot of time judging others more harshly than we do ourselves, and if we could all be a little more honest about our weaknesses, we would be much closer, and much happier.
lyrics
Keep watching you come around
You got something lovely in your soul
in your soul
But you stay so far away, how would any of us ever know
ever know
Perfect circled arciform nothing ever sticks to you for long
Not for ling
My celestial bodied baby
Not one single piece of you human
Not one
Down here in the dirt, we're all broken up
We're all crawling our way home
But broken edges mean more surfaces
to fit together and to hold
So come down from that high horse baby
How can you see anything from up there
From up there
Oh you got the high score now but you been losing out
In another way, another way
Come down from that high horse
Peeking through your looking glass
All you see is sinners in their throes
In their throes
Won't you come down to my level
There is so much beauty left to know
Left to know
Yeardown here in the firt
We're all broken up
We're all crawling our way home
But broken edges
Mean more surfaces
To love each other and to hold
CHORUS
You can stay up there
You can stay up there you can stay up there
Far away from here far away from here
Or you can come back home
Find the love you know that you want to know
It's ok my dear, it's ok my dear
It's ok my dear
You got something lovely in your soul
in your soul
But you stay so far away, how would any of us ever know
ever know
Perfect circled arciform nothing ever sticks to you for long
Not for ling
My celestial bodied baby
Not one single piece of you human
Not one
Down here in the dirt, we're all broken up
We're all crawling our way home
But broken edges mean more surfaces
to fit together and to hold
So come down from that high horse baby
How can you see anything from up there
From up there
Oh you got the high score now but you been losing out
In another way, another way
Come down from that high horse
Peeking through your looking glass
All you see is sinners in their throes
In their throes
Won't you come down to my level
There is so much beauty left to know
Left to know
Yeardown here in the firt
We're all broken up
We're all crawling our way home
But broken edges
Mean more surfaces
To love each other and to hold
CHORUS
You can stay up there
You can stay up there you can stay up there
Far away from here far away from here
Or you can come back home
Find the love you know that you want to know
It's ok my dear, it's ok my dear
It's ok my dear
