lyrics

to the sky
i know (please don’t say) repetition won’t help
i’ll show (can you stay) it’s not superstition i’ve felt
you’ll see (i swear i know) how it feels on that shelf
i can’t be (please don’t go) someone other than myself
i’ve heard (we’ll increase) of your promised paradise
you’ve observed (wait at least)our weight upon the ice
you’re not (you’re deluded)orpheus with his lyre
i’m not (don’t refute it) eurydice in the fire
(let me in where have you been)
let me go you’ll never know
(the music ceased an empty feast one note at least fore you’re increased)
you dream (dreams are hollow) that i fall into the sky
you see (what will follow) an end within my eyes
i long (please don’t) to take wing and fly
keep strong (please don’t) you’re a better friend than i
(let me in where have you been)
let me go you’ll never know
