| You’re so scared, with your feet in the air
|
| We’ve got passes to climb till we’re there
|
| Was the view much more, more sublime than you bargained for?
|
| It’s a terror to stomach, but babe, it’s your war
|
| You see those pilgrims crawling, inching ‘round
|
| Those ragged little—
|
| Turn your head around
|
| Don’t try to read those warnings written out
|
| On all those tiny crosses; |
| they all try to measure
|
| Threads by those who went before them
|
| Did you find you can dilate your time?
|
| You’re a prodigal, babe, but you’re mine
|
| Won’t you try? |
| Won’t you kiss the divide?
|
| Oh I know you’re contending with these bigger skies
|
| You see those pilgrims crawling, inching round
|
| Those ragged little curves, they’re leaning out
|
| They’re begging for it…
|
| Turn your head around
|
| Don’t try to read those warnings written out
|
| On all those tiny crosses; |
| they all try to measure
|
| Threads by those who went before them |
