Lonesome layers of clouds patient in a silver sky Drifting you'd feel a cold blue The kind that never caused you pain Send them on their way withholding Nothing but a hopeful gaze It's paradise you feel so unrestrained It never felt so strange We're birds on our better days Lonesome layers of clouds reign righteous in perfect light Fading you see the day's end calling to a resting place Send them on their way with nothing Branded by a hopeful gaze It's paradise to feel so selfless It never felt too strange We're birds on our better days
