A score of clouds above us A bustling city of caught-on fire Bless his heart, he found the desire To be understood, never could be the mire A field of gra** between us A far off curtain of listless measure I do not seem to care when all they do Is ask me if I'm trying at all Reaching for the sky is such a cliché I'd much rather be here on the ground Turning the way of those who've come before
I'll dance avenues in the rain A decade or more has pa**ed us A chained-up peril of cla**less fame I cannot win the war when it goes under the door And you're banging away wanting more Dreaming of something mindless and twisted Darkness comes by the light of day Burdening our every move Like a crow on the prey For love, sacred love
