Permanent Reminder
I wish that they would send me to the sky
So I could spend forever with my star.
Shining down on dull lit lamps
Playing in the driveway of my hopes.
It’s over my head.
I never asked to be this far away,
But sometimes when you squeeze a bottle,
The glass breaks and stabs you in the heart.
It’s over my head.
I never belonged here
Among the sea and open air.
They’ll never be trusted
And the fountains can’t recall
What my dreams are opening.
I never belonged here.
I never belonged here.
The flight of a million broken bones
Cracks above my bright window tonight
And suddenly the sky doesn’t seem so bright.
I’ve finally come here
With a handful of grenades
And stones to throw your way.
We don’t really have to,
But this is my war
And I’ve tried to say goodbye
And I’ll repeat it.
