My Sky  

I can’t hear myself think

Woke up this morning in a warzone it seems

Whats a guy gotta do to get a little bit of peace

In this world

 

All I ask for

golden sunbeams

Sweet silence,

Cause it heals me,

Hey hasty world where’s your reverence for the presence

Of a rising star

 

 And these, invisible lines

Are tangling, tangling ‘round me

these, slow growing weeds

Are keeping me from seeing my sky

 From seeing my sky

From my sky

 

Lately everywhere I look

It’s like I gotta watch my back like I’m some kind of crook

So much as stare at something wrong

they’ll go and cite you for indecent thoughts

 

wanna escape down to mexico

Where the Wild West still has some soul

Something California used to know

I watched it leave with the rush of gold

 

And these, invisible lines

Are tangling, tangling ‘round me

these, slow growing weeds

Are keeping me from seeing my sky

 From seeing my sky

From my sky

 

To the horizon

We’ll be rising

It’s all right here,

Right inside us,

Limitless, infinite

Though we hide it

Can never be taken away

Though they try it

 Cause light is the secret

Behind eyesight,

ours is love,

Forever like that sky

 

These, invisible lines

Are tangling, tangling ‘round me

And these, slow growing weeds

Are keeping me from seeing my sky

 

From seeing my sky

From seeing my sky

From seeing my sky
