Altitude

Chris Whitley


Tearing down the wall that we come upon 
Would it live if I debunk the condition 

Who talked you down to the reasonable illness 
By and by we won't need no forgiveness 
Sister got to tell me you like it 
Now that gravity seems so cruel 
At a different altitude 

Tearing down the wall of institution 
Give me love or electrocution 
Sister we could die tomorrow 
Now that everything looks so small 
It's hard to care at all 
Now that gravity seems so cruel 
At a different altitude
