The Nearly Man
Down here at the bottom,
When you’re staring at the top
With a head full of ideals
I’m only flesh and blood
On an eiderdown of glory;
And a pillow of desire,
Drifting on an ocean
And the waves wash through
Something haunts us
Kicks the stars from our skies.
Blows the lights out
With a whisper and sighs.
If you’re down, down
I’m down, down
And when you’re down, down
I’m down, down
Well, I was nearly me
And you were nearly you.
The nearly man was nothing
He was never any use
Beaten down by generations
Of generations beaten down.
There’s nothing I could promise
That my conscience will allow.
Something haunts us
Kicks the stars from our skies.
Blows the lights out
With a whisper and sighs.
If you’re down, down
I’m down, down
And when you’re down, down
I’m down, down
If you’re down, down
I’m down, down
And when you’re down, down
I’m down, down
If you’re down, down
I’m down, down
And when you’re down, down
I’m down, down
