You never knew, did you?
That I loved the morning skies and dew
Did you know I loved to write?
That I dreamed of cloudless skies and flight?
Did you ever see my inked and scarred hands?
Smeared like a purple sunset that you wouldn't understand
Did you ever see my eyes light up like the stars?
I remember back then, when the sky was ours.
The clouds were gone, and the sun was high
The day was bright
But you turned on me, and dimmed the lights
The moon doesn't glow.
And the sun doesn't shine.
You never knew,
How much I wished you were mine.
Yes, I was lost,
Concealed in the clouds
But if you'd tried,
I would've been found.
