Painted Skies

When she's sad the world is lonely

Silver clouds are crying onlyFor the pain she feelsSo deep inside

The love she thought would save herHas somehow now enslaved herTo a dream she thought she wanted

To come true

Spread your wings you can fly

But the dove is never freeIn painted skies that shade the color

Of your dream

Only nightmares are realConfusion conceals the only reasonFor the feelings you can't hide

When she smiles the world it shines

But the silver clouds are only there

To hide the distant storm

That's coming soon

The love she let surround herHas become the waves that drown her

In the sea of everchangingWarmth and cold

Spread your wings you can fly

But the dove is never freeIn painted skies that shade the colorOf your dream

Only nightmares are realConfusion conceals the only reasonFor the feelings you can't hide

You can fly

Spread your wings you can flyBut the dove is never freeIn painted skies that shade the colorOf your dream

When the nightmares ensue

All that you can do is paint your sky

Another brighter shade of blue

Spread your wings you can glide

Above the violent storm

That plague your life

You paint the picture blue or grey

Fly away
