It's Small Up Here

Don't make me say the words
Drag them out of that place
We've not enough time to dust them off
And set them straight
Let me instead breathe a bit
Take it all in
The where you've placed your pen
The measured spaces between the between

It's small up here
This place full of big ideas
Eternity carved into memories
Of earthly dust glorified

I wanted to find a place
Where it was okay
I wanted to drop my bag
Not have to explain
To watch you in your watching
There in your place
To wait for you to square up
The mess I'd just made

It's small up here
This place full of big ideas
Eternity carved into memories
Of earthly dust glorified

I had hoped to squeeze into that corner
Beneath the sign
I had hoped to say the unsaid
Without saying
Fragmented thoughts, oh clumsy me
There was no need to make no apology
'Cause I know you know
Maybe I should go
