A Little Room | The Center Will Not Hold (dance, 2023)

There was something up ahead
I could feel it coming
I thought I could skate right through
but time didn’t agree
Things get bigger when you anticipate them
What you pay attention to grows
  
Let it drop
You never wanted to pick it up
and I scraped my knees
Horses know when to move all four legs
but I only knew the shape of you
 
I didn’t see the cliff ‘til I was halfway down
It didn’t feel like falling: invisible ground
You always look ten times before you leap
But I’m already in mid air
I just wanted to meet you there

Everywhere I want to go
Every fool I can become
Every mistake I will make
I want to do it with you
Keep an ear to the sky, there’s always more room
Anywhere is here with you
 
I didn’t see the cliff ‘til I was halfway down
It didn’t feel like falling: invisible ground
You always look ten times before you leap
And I’m in mid air
I want to meet you there
 
I’m right next to myself
I’m under this same cloud
I’m holding myself
I’m holding the door open
For me
For you and me
For you
If you are holding yourself
If you are next to yourself
If you can hold me
If you can hold more than me
 
I didn’t see the cliff ‘til I was halfway down
It didn’t feel like falling: invisible ground
You always look ten times before you leap
And I’m in mid air
Won’t you meet me there?
