A Different Sky Songtext
von theicon

I - 8:51 am

Floating, Carried by the crowd
Awakened by the morning′ sounds
Faces brightened by a sun that's
Fading at every single turn

Here it comes again
Sneaking through the metal rails
Then it disappears
As the train enters Manhattan

Just another Monday morning
9 a.m. the snow is falling silently
Freezing January
"Hello James, I′m freaking late
So we can't have our usual cup of coffee"
He seems so different


He doesn't talk to me
He′s not making any joke
He just looks at me
Like a stranger
Then he speaks to me
And his voice is not the same
Something doesn′t fit
Something is wrong

II - Grey Snow

Out: there's a street I can′t recall
Not the park I used to know
There's no music in the air
Just a noisy traffic jam

There are a thousand small details
Well known things are twisted and changed
Did hell break loose somehow?
Or maybe I just lost my sanity

Tell me what I′ve done to deserve this nightmare!
What I've done to see my
World: gone
All the things I know: gone
On my knees I crawl
Brawl
Making my way through the city Hall
Face on grey cold snow


As I turn my eyes I see
The World Trade Center′s gone
And I felt nothing

Here I fall in a different world
Trying to find a sense
When all around there's none
Here I cry for a different sky
For another sun
Another place
A different everything
And yes I'm still the same

III - Above the clouds

I′ve been roaming all day long
Paranoid and chased by ghosts
Like a fly caught in a web
The more I move the more I′m trapped

As the panic grows inside
Burning tears turns into ice
I just wish I'd disappear
So I just close my eyes and I′m

Floating, Drifting with the wind
I'm flying high above the clouds
Smiling I realize that I′m just falling
Falling to the ground

IV - Hell is a cold place

So I'm standing still
I′m chilling to the bone
Cause there's no place to go when all you love is gone
And there's no home, there′s no friend to call
No one to hold
Where are you?

Cause I′m here
Trapped inside a tear
Holding in my hands the one thing I still have
Here you are
In a fading picture
All I have to do is tear it and go on

Here I fall in a different world
For a reason I will never understand
(And yes I'm sure I can′t forget)
Here I cry
Here I'll Live and I′ll die without you
Here I'll have to learn a way to
Fight against a sky that I just don′t know

A sky I don't know
A sky that I don't know
A sky that I won′t know
