i remember one columbus day when i was young and learned the world was round there didn t seem to be a lot to say but i had trouble keepin both feet on the ground but now i stick to you i know just what to do i hold on i remember looking at the sky so thick and blue that i went tumblin in out the window knowin i could fly i flew as far as where the ground begins for you i ll use the door i don t do that anymore i hold on all the black and blue that i stumble through for you will never show i have a simulated grace to help me keep my place and never let you go i ll never let you go if you could see the world the way i do with nothing keepin up or keepin time your sense of self would tear your heart in two while you try to tell the world you re feelin fine inside that s how i feel so i reach for something real and hold on i might make these revelations with the ghostly imitation of a smile it s the best that i can do and i ll do my best for you and hope it lasts for a while
