Текст песни Vertical - Speedy Justice

He always saw things like they were vertical obstacles
Impeding his vision
He felt like he could see past time, since he was a kid, mind you
If he could only see past the vertical things blocking his vision

People stood there, making him shower and do chores
Clean his room go to school, there were always walls
Four walls in every room, 40 rooms in the school, 160 vertical

Walls in the school stopping him
The windows of the car filtered out possibilities,
Those nearly vertical windows
The stupid cars the stupid trees the bricks, rocks, water

The parents worried about him, the more they worried
The more they forced obstacles into his sight, therapy
They knew nothing about him, didn't think in the same box
Everyone was outside of the box, standing tall outside
Blocking his vision

The parents made him go to the fair made him shoot the water
Into the hole, water level rising, crazy music he wins a stuffed
Elephant to stand before him, opaque

And then she is there, the first thing she did was flash him
tshirt up and down in vertical speed friends guffawing
Sound like laughing wall impossible to block

She came to him on the bb game, came up behind him and
Gently on his shoulder, those arms horizontally and the look
On that face, sadly passionate, I'm sorry for that, they
Bring out the bad in me, I'm not a bad girl really

Then she shot perfect holes around the star and won him
Another huge elephant and kissed him quickly on the lips
So quick, so light as to not even feel so much as see the
Vertical face right up to him, blocking his vision

Then a wall grew within him, lifting him up and over
To a new height a clearing of the clouds rushing skyward
And he saw for the first time above the world of impossibility
