lyrics

WESTERN SKY

The one solution to calm your mind
When the changed have paved your way
And in confusion you’re onto the higher ground
Falling into the winter’s hold
I see the lines surround your eyes
We could talk and understand
You’ve looked beyond what you’ve been shown

Sing to the Western Sky
Walk towards the Western Sky

Turn away from the deadwood
Count seconds to the fall
Fire and candles light this place
Faith has healed the wild and calm, you know
Righteous pours out of you
The sense of new worlds growing strong
I’ll paint my name across this town
And be here when judgment comes around, when judgment comes around

Run, run, run, running to the Western Sky
Run, run, run, running to the Western Sky

Counting life in cold hard stone
To the lost across the wire
I don’t see through my mind’s twist
To the sound of gunfire

And if I had your strength
I’d shout my hopes and fears aloud
Singing strings and screaming bells
Guide you to a higher ground
To the higher ground

Run, run, run, running to the Western Sky
Run, run, run, running to the Western Sky
Run, run, run, running to the Western Sky
Run, run, run, running to the Western Sky

Run
You walk into the Western Sky
I saw you walk into the Western Sky
