lyrics

Child of the Sky

True
You know everything is true
What you’ve been told or you might knew
‘bout times of war

True
A demon cuts your heart in two
And then you got to carry through
Under the waves

In a dream that lost its potential
You’re a falling star over a deadly sea
Like a train loaded with anger
Stuck in the middle of a desert of blue
Child of the sky

True
This baby’s running out fuel
It's like the light at the end of the valley
And the magicians are too cruel
To make it go

You
Close your eyes and tell me true
Are the distant drums of doom
All you can hear?

In a dream that lost its potential
You’re a falling star over a deadly sea
Like a train loaded with anger
Stuck in the middle of a desert of blue
Child of the sky

And you travel like a twig in the river
Like a burnin heart over the angry sea
Don’t let yourself go — I’m wishing upon you
Child of the sky
So fragile and free

Child of the sky
