Lyrics
THE FALL
We saw you
We saw your fall
We saw you fallng down
We saw it all
You seemed so serene
the faintest scream
And I thought if I could fly
I would not fly like that
I would fly the way a leaf flies
sashaying the breeze
or soar like a kite
tethered by a line
still anchored
and you are anchored
unable to ignore
the uprush of concrete
its' appalling appeal
answering earth's
umbilical call.
