Sky

Well, the news found me today A million steps away These things take time to travel, it would seem I can't even fall apart Really, now, where would I start? I swear we spoke last night, or did I dream? And I can see you in my mind Your eyes now, they would shine Blue, the sky that made itself your name Oh God, can it be true? Why me, but more why you? When did it fall apart, when did we change? I remember the time we were seven years old When you let me kiss you on top of the world I come back to the memory, safe in my soul But now when I arrive, I find myself alone And I'm scared of the the day that I forget your face Hold on so tight but it still slips away I keep searchin' this hollow stone For the youth I used to know In this summer I checked in Seemed like you were wearin' thin Said that you had seen a quiet sort of year Sounded older than before Like you'd lost another war As we spoke I heard you slowly disappear And all the pills that you would take Just to help you stay awake Couldn't guide you on your way back home to shore The girl I used to know Well, I lost her years ago But knowin' that just makes this hurt much more Oh, comfort, oh, comfort, say how would it feel My hand starts to crack, my skin starts to peel When I die, will it ever have happened at all? In my heart I still wait for the day that you'll call And I'm sorry that I, didn't keep us in touch I didn't sit missin' you, not all that much And I'm sorry I let you go The youth I used to know The youth I used to know The youth I used to know The youth I used to know The youth I used to know The youth I used to know The youth I used to know.
