Song by The Badlees<br /><br>

the big man ain't so big no more<br>

he's curled up on the basement floor<br>

his worldly goods around his feet<br>

he's lost his mind trying to keep<br>

the more you gain, the more you pray<br>

nobody comes to take it all away<br>

<br>

but you're up there and I'm down here<br>

with just the stairs between our fears<br>

and walls made of foolish pride<br>

don't let me hide<br>

<br>

once I walked a troubled road<br>

crusading for a ransom owed<br>

but any source of real joy contains <br>

an initiation of pain<br>

the more you build, the more you stay<br>

behind to tend what you have made<br>

<br>

but you're up there and I'm down here<br>

with just the stairs between our tears<br>

and walls we can't see behind<br>

don't let me hide <br>

<br>

the more you live, the more you're sure<br>

some things are worth losing for<br>

<br>

but you're up there and I'm down here<br>

with just the stairs between our fears<br>

and walls we can live inside<br>

don't let me hide<br>

<br>
