Story Behind the Song
Lyrics
My fists fell tight against my eyes. We turned, your back bore open arms.
My screams fell light against your ears. You turned, and with fractured words you fled.
Now come away, these skies were never so big as when time was mine, and you were waiting. I bought this sky to remind me of days when it was my time to break you, in Kansas...
My mouth was cool to years of pain. I paid, you traded blood for chance. My screams fell light against your ears. You turned, and with fractured words you fled.
Now come away, these skies were never so big as when time was mine, and you were waiting. I bought this sky to remind me of days when it was my time to break you, in Kansas...
I knew you better then, days bled where nights were marked with chance. I knew you better then, when time was mine in Kansas...
My fists fell tight against my eyes. We turned, your back bore open arms. My screams fell light against your ears. You turned, and with fractured words you fled.
But what will we sing of? What were you to sing of, this time, when I left you in Kansas?...
