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 'Cause 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 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 But if you would pick me up I'd be obliged Dust me off and push my hair aside 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 thinking about 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 Kiss me goodbye.
