Fall

What if the highest destination
Of any given human life
Wasn't a place you could reach if
You had to climb

Wasn't up above like heaven
So no need to climb at all
What if to reach the highest place
You had to fall

What if all the sages
Thinking about realms out of reach
Would memorize the pages
Of gravity

What if getting to the highest place
Is like learning what you know
Or like getting to where you are now
Like coming home

Partial lyrics to "Fall" by UU musician and songwriter Peter Mayer
