You and J's been sitting by the roadside

For far too long, in this little town

Seems your plan of leaving left you both behind

Your wings are strong, you're still on the ground



Seconds, hours, minutes they all pass you by

Above your heads, still an empty sky

Shining shies or working mines, is not your favorite waste of time

And never what you had in mind

Gonna have to move on

Or else your life will be gone

Don't set your level too high

Just lower the line of the sky



You missed the bus that never had a stop in your town

Seems it let you down, never came around

No one you knew ever left this place alive

Became husbands and wives, nomatter how they strived



Seconds, hours, minutes they all pass you by

Above your heads, still an empty sky

Shining shies or working mines, is not your favorite waste of time

And never what you had in mind

Gonna have to move on

Or else your life will be gone

Don't set your level too high

Just lower the line of the sky
