lyrics

Walking backwards down the stairs
Trying to get higher
How can I get anywhere
Walking backwards down the stairs

People stop to watch me
Wonder what I'm doing
What direction I'm pursuing
I pretend I'm free but actually I'm

Walking backwards down the stairs
Trying to get higher
How can I get anywhere
Walking backwards down the stairs

Watching life elude me
Slipping through my grasp
Oh I know the truth at last
But to reach the top I got to stop from

Walking backwards down the stairs
Trying to get higher, higher
How can I get anywhere
Walking backwards down the stairs

​Thank you, thank you. 'Kay [Spoken]
