Conversation with the Clouds

2008

      "I hope it quenches your thirst for attention
      That everywhere I go, people question
      Your decison, and I am left only with the explanation
      That, though hoping to set himself free,
      My friend will now spend forever in the skies..
      And there he lies where he longed to be."

"But, friend, the atmosphere's thinning out
I'm falling from the sky
You're screaming my name, louder, still
Please fear me not; or, at least, try.
You know I've hoped for all these years
To never let you down
I've been watching over you,
And this void, abandoned town.
I swear, you haven't lost so much
The music's reached me, after all
Keep your feet on solid ground, kid
Heaven was never worth the fall."

      "If you've been watching over me,
      Then surely you have seen
      The plague that's taken over
      This world you forced yourself to leave."

"I am a coward at best, dear child
But please, forgive me all the same
Tell my Momma and my Daddy that
I'll spend eternal life in vain"
