Awful still out there[00:00:09]
Too still for me[00:00:11]
We used to go on outside whenever[00:00:13]
Something was open to buy some tea[00:00:15]
Feel like you could die here[00:00:18]
Middle of main street[00:00:20]
Plain as day[00:00:21]
The sun would bake you dry[00:00:22]
The wind blow you away[00:00:24]
Everybody's shifting[00:00:31]
Some people in the air[00:00:34]
Half of me wants to crack the code[00:00:36]
The other half don't care[00:00:38]
I wouldn't bat an eyelid[00:00:40]
If right now someone said[00:00:43]
All the folks you talking too[00:00:45]
Been a hundred years dead[00:00:46]
Hey[00:00:47]
Fly away[00:00:47]
Hey[00:00:49]
Sky is gray[00:00:49]
Hey[00:00:51]
Fly away[00:00:51]
Hey[00:00:54]
Sky is gray[00:00:56]
Sometimes I wanna fly planes into buildings[00:00:58]
So I stay away from planes[00:01:00]
I want sweet oblivion and outside[00:01:02]
I want dripping rain[00:01:10]
Tripping over my underwear and cigarette shelf[00:01:11]
They say this river runs like freedom[00:01:14]
But right now it's gone dry[00:01:16]
The water tower's run dry[00:01:17]
The sun's falling outta the sky[00:01:19]
I don't understand why I owe anybody anything[00:01:21]
I feel like a tightrope walker and they took away my string[00:01:23]
Feel like someone squeezed the juice out of my fruit[00:01:25]
Like everyone's in sweat pants and I'll only wear a suit[00:01:29]
Used to feel like a mexican bandit when I picked up my guitar[00:01:32]
Now it's nuclear winter[00:01:34]
I gotta pay for a new car[00:01:35]
Hey[00:01:41]
Fly away[00:01:42]
Hey[00:01:42]
Sky is gray[00:01:43]
Hey[00:01:46]
Fly away[00:01:47]
Hey[00:01:50]
Sky is gray[00:01:52]
Why is the car still running[00:01:56]
Won't someone turn it off[00:01:58]
Who is looking in my window[00:02:01]
I heard somebody cough[00:02:03]
Things so important a few months back[00:02:06]
Now barely catch my interest[00:02:09]
I feel I'm losing track[00:02:12]
Of people[00:02:14]
Of names[00:02:15]
Of places[00:02:16]
And of friends[00:02:17]
Excuse me for not keeping up with all the latest trends[00:02:19]
Hey[00:02:23]
Fly away[00:02:25]
Hey[00:02:28]
Sky is gray[00:02:30]
Hey[00:02:32]
Fly away[00:02:34]
Hey sky is gray[00:02:37]
Well excuse me for behaving in a manner that seems rude[00:02:43]
Most of my waking moments deal with finding food[00:02:48]
Something for my family[00:02:52]
Something for my nation[00:02:54]
Designer boots for grandma[00:02:56]
Designer d**gs for my patients[00:02:58]
I've been infected[00:03:01]
I've been dissected[00:03:03]
I've been neglected and injected and inspected[00:03:05]
Don't be rejected[00:03:10]
You will be protected[00:03:12]
Send me all your money so that I can get elected[00:03:14]
Hey[00:03:19]
Fly away[00:03:20]
Hey[00:03:23]
Sky is gray[00:03:25]
Hey[00:03:28]
Fly away[00:03:29]
Hey[00:03:32]
Sky is gray[00:03:34]
Well I lost my sense of balance[00:03:38]
And I lost my sense of smell[00:03:40]
In a car accident near the liberty bell[00:03:42]
I lost my sense of timing[00:03:47]
I lost my sense of touch[00:03:51]
I have no taste[00:03:56]
Lots of folks tell me that[00:03:58]
My eyesight was pretty much shot right off the bat[00:04:00]
All that's left is some skewed inner vision[00:04:05]
And some obsolete info on nuclear fission[00:04:09]
Hey[00:04:14]
Fly away[00:04:15]
Hey[00:04:18]
Sky is gray[00:04:20]
Hey[00:04:23]
Fly away[00:04:24]
Hey[00:04:27]
Sky is gray[00:04:53]
Well I finally got this whole place to myself[00:05:04]
Think I might go and strap myself down[00:05:09]
And sleep off this headache[00:05:12]
Sleep off this war[00:05:16]
And maybe my dreams will tell me[00:05:17]
What it all was for[00:05:20]
I might steal some clothes and get my face all dirty[00:05:22]
Roll on the freight train[00:05:27]
Rolls in around 430[00:05:37]
Might see you up in the sky[00:05:50]
If we flap our wings and learn to fly[00:06:01]
Hey[00:06:14]
Fly away[00:06:16]
Hey[00:06:23]
Sky is gray[00:06:27]
