Songtexte: Julia Nunes. Stairwell.

I'm lying here on the floor
just like the man on the yellow cone
I guess the floor was wet
so I'm cold and I'm all alone
'cuz I was running down the stairs
I didn't think that I could fall
But gravity took over me
and I crumpled like a ball

Chorus:
But if you would pick me up
I'd be obliged
Dust me off and push
my hair aside

Well it's later than I thought
and I thought it was pretty late
I guess everyone's asleep
wonder why I'm still awake
I could fall asleep right here
with my hands under my head
there's a body in the stairwell
call the cops I think she's dead

Chorus

Well I can't lie
perhaps I didn't trip
I've been having troubles lately
and I got something to admit
see I was standing at the top
a' thinkin' bout the earth
it's been so hard to just keep living
so I thought it might be worth it if...

You would pick me up
I'd be obliged
Dust me off and push
my hair aside
And kiss me goodbye
