Staring at the Sky


What have you been doing with your mind
Watching waiting for the rest of time
It's passed and you're still staring at the sky
I know you sit and think you're fine
The call that never came was so sublime
It's passed and you're still staring at the sky

Shrieking won't make them think you're strange
But fighting the chaos won't make it change
There's something clear beyond that last Oh Why
Seeking the right words won't make them come
Earning your smile back doesn't mean your done
There's something clear beyond that last Oh Why

Step outside and find the sun
You are not a paper's sum
Nor yet can you wait for another one
Another walk won't kill the pain
But breath a new day into your brain
This turn you made will soon be done.

How many things have you seen pass
How many worlds until the last?
There's something clear beyond that last Oh Why
One foot front the other inert
Your only impetus a grin or flirt
There's something clear beyond that last Oh Why

Shake your head and say it's done
You've given up on having fun
It's passed and you're still staring at the sky
Nod your yes's relinquish the no's
but it hasn't made you leave your home
It's passed and you're still staring at the sky.
