The Sky Above

Act 1 I fly across a not so blue sky To go and seek the truth To go and clear these lies To search for peace of mind Memories of a distant past And burdens of the distant future Wondering how long they last Guessing this is the fate of my nature Act 2 I just know that Somewhere I’m needed Just can’t help it My wings are bleeding Time is late Night and day I guess all I can do Is simply wait Learning that as long as there’s life there’s hope Knowing that somehow I will learn to cope All we see is perspective not true That’s why it’s hard to sing the blues However I still fly At long last I will be part of the sky Act 3 I can no longer fly I walk starring at the sky Still rosebuds fly intoxicating the air Letting me know hope is still there To go seek the gift of God To go seek the endless rod
