Calling Me From Above

0:08 -- With the sky shining so high and so blue, Why'd I ever choose to run with you? The earth looked appealing for a moment, Yeah, thanks to you. Yeah. Thanks to you. 0:26 -- I doubted myself in ways so unfair With the blue sky calling me from above. Oh, that blue sky. Oh, the call. Why'd I ignore the calling blue sky? 0:44 -- Safety was in the sky. Oh, and yet I ignored it. 0:57 -- I doubted myself in ways so unfair With the blue sky calling me from above. Oh, that blue sky. Oh, the call. Why'd I ignore the calling blue sky? 1:13 -- I fell hard, so hard. It was a fury, a dying star. And tho I knew that the sky was calling: I chose to become your earth, And leave the sky behind. And the fall and all that pain was just for you. Yeah, just for you. And oh, I broke. I shattered. Unable to break away from the earth to heed the call of the clear, blue sky. I don't know why I tried. *Lyrical Pause* 2:42 -- I doubted myself in ways so unfair With the blue sky calling me from above. I doubted myself in ways so unfair With the blue sky calling me from above. 2:58 -- Pushing away from the earth, I leaped to return to the sky. To the sky. And the sky was not the same, As it once had been. As it once'd been! 03:14 -- Oh, that blue sky. Oh, the call. I don't know why I ignored the call. 03:22 SONG INSPIRATION CITATION: Instrumental By: War of Ages
