Some Other Sky

[Verse 1]
You left home in high autumn with a fistful of stars
Past loves that had fallen and left a radiant scar
As you drive south you tell yourself again
It's better to leave boy, than it is to be left
You give so much away, maybe more than you should
Did you decide that you'd rather be free than try to be good?
You read love her last rights, burned the first page in your book
What if love at first sight demands a second look?
Cause you've either hit rock bottom and you're lost
Or at long-last you're finding out who you are

[Chorus]
Come on and look in my face now
Let down your disguise
It's like you're hell-bent to tear down, the last star in your sky
Cause when you're lost, you're caught in the cross-fire, or you're falling down on your own knife
Yeah, it's like tearing a star down and hanging it in some other sky

[Verse 2]
So raise a glass for your sinner, say a prayer for your saint
Which one will be with you at the end of your days?
Come let your hurt show, I'm no stranger to pain
In a kingdom of sun I'd be the one still praying for rain
When you're bound and determined to get lost
Far be it from me to pull you down off that cross

[Chorus]
Come on and look in my face now
Let down your disguise
It's like you're hell-bent to tear down the best star in your sky
Cause you get lost, you're caught in the cross-fire, or you're falling down on your own knife
Yeah, it's like tearing a star down and hanging it in some other sky
Some other sky
Some other sky
Oh, some other sky

[Chorus]
Come on and look in my face now
Let down your disguise
It's like you're hell-bent to tear down the best star in your sky
Cause when you're lost, you're caught in the cross-fire, or you're falling down on your own knife
Yeah, it's like tearing a star down and hanging it in some other sky

[Outro]
You left home in high autumn with a fistful of stars
Past loves that had fallen and left a radiant scar
