lyrics

MID AIR
(doubt in the time of the pandemic)

up
in
mid-air

i feel
weightless
suspended
& unsure

can’t find solid ground
r where the horizon
ends
will i find a job?
have i lost
have i lost a friend?

i look up
the clouds are
bearing down
i look down
n i am lost
n found

is limbo
a safe way
ok
uncharted
n afraid of everything

i
try to control
the smallest
of fears

i want to let go
n not push
the river
too many tears
n years, my friend
take, take me home

curl up on my
bed
cats
on my arms
rice on the stove
art for the day
a book unread
Christmas lights
sparkle
in the window
like they always do
like a hippie, ill
ill never change
i repeat myself
over n over

up
in
mid-air

i feel weightless
suspended & unsure
i can’t find solid ground
r where
the horizon ends
will i find a job
have i lost
have i lost a friend

i look up
n the clouds are
bearing down
i look down
am i lost
and found

is limbo
a safe way
ok
uncharted
n afraid of everything

(get over yourself, rick)

up
in
mid-air
