The Antlers - Stairs to the attic

^GI decided on that evening that I was ^Cthrough with sitting still I stood ^Gup and started moving with a ^Cchildlike fascination For those ^Gdoors that don't have locks And the s^Ctairways that were blocked So I dug ^Gthrough the obstruction Put my f^Cist around the railing And each ^Gstep was far apart And far ^Caway from steps before it And the ^Gair was getting thinner Til I co^Culdn't breathe at all And if I ^Ghappened to look behind me There were ^Cmiles and miles of stairs Enough so I ^Gcouldn't see the doorway But I ^Cknew that it was there And on the l^Gast step I was dizzy 'Cause there were ^Cstairs in all directions But I ^Gfound another door And through the ^Cdoor there was the attic Without old ^Gclothes

Every^Cthing had opened wide Into the ^Gjaws of something bigger And s^Cuddenly I saw that I was ^GUpstairs and ^Coutside and^G freezing on the ^Croof ^GFinally it had ^Cfound me The ^Ganswer, the ^Cfeeling, and the ^Gtruth: ^GThat I'm small That I'm small That I'm small I'm smaller than the smallest fireball.
