Off the Ledge

G E F
Fell out of a window
G E F
Fell way out into the sea
Where waves of isolation
Drag everything away from me
Thought I heard a bird sing
But it was your alarm ring
Just ready to forgive me
Still swallowed by the tide so deep, yeah

Fell out of a window
Fell, float away from company
well, shores of seperation
Still waters in my memory
Sure I hear a gunshot
Not another big wind blowin’
Got a little way to go now
A little way left to creep

Met a real woman with her arms uncurled
When I woke I saw her sober, from another world
Met a real woman, with her love intact,
When I woke I saw her shimmer, more imagined than a fact

Feel like falling ice
Hear that funny voice
Feel like feeling nice
Gonna make a big new total choice

Travel up the coastline
With a full Sail set
Went sinking to the bottom like a lump of lead
Leave a life beind you
Did I fall, was I pushed?
Did I leave a life behind me
Was it living all that much?

Fell out of a window
Fell, looking for a place to be
Till times’s articulation
Tells how it is to be so free
Must have been the moonlight
That led me to this blue night
What did I do to get here
Why did I have to slip so deep, yeah

Woah, yeah!

SO deep, where the mind is loose and mean ideas creep

Woah, oh yeah…

Met a real woman with her arms uncurled
When I woke I saw her sober, someone from another world
Yes I found a real woman with her love intact
But when I woke I seen her fading, more a dream than a fact.

Travel up the coast with a full sail set
Now sinking to the bottom like a lump of lead.
