Lost the Sky Again

Like a criminal guilty on all counts

Rattling his cage with every ounce

Of resolve he never had

I was convicted

Then I took the pardon and the walls came down

But I must like it here 'cause I keep hanging around

For a better suit and an escort and a winning lottery ticket

First we waited for miracles

Then we needed a sign

Now we're here to confess

We've wasted the time

But I know, I know

I know, I know this

Every blade will wither and fade

As the old man dies again

Season pass, we're clinging to grass

'Cause we've lost the sky again

Like a woman trying to give birth

She strains, she labors

She's not sure if it's worth the suffering

And she wonders, how long?

When I first heard the rumor you were coming back

I confess my impatience, I guess I lost track of what

I'm to persevere for of the reason you put me here for

Back then it was any day now

Never dreamed we were wrong

Now we're shaking our heads

Wondering, how long?

But I know, I know

I know, I know that

Every blade will wither and fade

As the old man dies again

Season pass, we're clinging to grass

'Cause we've lost the sky again

I feel a moment of your perfect love

I catch a glimmer of your sweet grace

But it only makes me long for the day

When I look full in your face

Every blade will wither and fade

As the old man dies again

Season pass, we're clinging to grass

'Cause we've lost the sky again

Every blade will wither and fade

As the old man dies again

Season pass, we're clinging to grass

'Cause we've lost the sky again

Every blade will wither and fade

As the old man dies again

Season pass, we're clinging to grass

'Cause we've lost the sky again

Every blade will wither and fade

As the old man dies again

Season pass, we're clinging to grass

'Cause we've lost the sky again
