Fighting On The Stairs
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'm living out in the old house
And fighting on the stairs
And staring at the windows
Breeze blowing through the years
But if I don't get out of this town
Then something is gonna break
'Cause I gotta find my own way now
Through this thick malaise
Well I don't know where else I can turn now
Makes me often wonder when are we gonna learn
You're wearing too much make-up
Going to the dance
And you're looking over my way now
But some people out there take a chance
But your glow in this light is so becoming now
If I don't get out of this town
Something's gonna break
I'm waiting to find my high/house soon
And rummage through the age
Sometimes it feels like we don't stand a chance
And we go, we go with something pure in our hearts
