stairs to the attic - the antlers lyrics

i decided on that evening that i was through with sitting still
i stood up and started moving with a childlike fascination
for those doors that don’t have locks
and the stairways that were blocked
so i dug through the obstruction
put my fist around the railing
and each step was far apart
and far away from steps before it
and the air was getting thinner
’til i couldn’t breathe at all
and if i happened to look behind me
there were miles and miles of stairs
enough so i couldn’t see the doorway
but i knew that it was there
and on the last step i was dizzy
’cause there were stairs in all directions
but i found another door
and through the door there was the attic
without old clothes
without a ceiling
everything had opened wide
into the jaws of something bigger
and suddenly i saw that i was
upstairs and outside and freezing on the roof
finally it had found me
the answer, the feeling, and the truth:

that i’m small
i’m smaller than the smallest fireball.
