Heaven On Stilts
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 believed you
I had no reason not to
When you told me I
Could trust you with my life
But, I've been learning
That you're a different person
Than you advertise
And I just buy and buy and buy and buy
You're nothing but trouble
You burst my bubble
'Cause you were just heaven on stilts
You're wobbling
You're wobbling
Now look at my heaven on stilts
It's stumbling
It's tumbling down
I heard a crash
Oh well, well welcome back
The ground will suit you fine
It's far more open to your kind
And my heart's been yearning
But, at least my neck's no longer hurting
From looking up at the sky
Oh so high, so high, so high, so high
I'll never recover
Goodbye, seesaw lover
You were just heaven on stilts
You're wobbling
You're wobbling
Now look at my heaven on stilts
It's stumbling
It's tumbling down
I thought that you were stable
Why couldn't you be stable?
How the hell are we going to make it to heaven?
