Verse 1
Twenty-one thousand feet above
I never set out chasing fortune,
Never planned some grand design.

(Verse 1)
Hey there, girl on the train,
What’s your trouble, what’s your pain?
You sit there glum, that’s no fun,
This song was created after watching a modern day cowboy film – an Indians arrow went into a young woman – the arrow had a poisoned tip – a slow death came – she explained…
I walk… but it feels like the floor forgets me.
Like every step I take disappears before it lands.
I'm here—but not really here.
A shadow wearing skin,
Growing line on wall – measuring as we grow – funny idea really
Verse 1
Just a boy, only nine years old
Four foot tall, reaching, bold
