    Story Behind the Song
    I wrote this song shortly after a relationship ended. I started thinking maybe I should try to track down my first girlfriend.
    That's when the song came.
    Although the song was written in the space of about three hours, it took a long time to record because I was never happy with it.

    Lyrics
    Icicles though her sky colored skin
    have poked though the sky like poles
    dividing a mast,
    whose white wooden mask
    is rising to fill in the holes
    She's lifting her hand
    to see if she can
    cover the holes in the sky
    And then he comes in
    and questions within-
    Why don't I try?

    I need your advice
    you once were my life
    I don't feel alive anymore
    I saw my whole life
    flash though my eyes
    I saw myself die
    I need you say
    what I can't beleive
    I need you to make
    me happy
    You offer me life

    Taking me to
    a personal truth
    I feel in a river of sand
    A burden of light
    A burden so right
    Can I be
    a good wholesome man?
