10. Weight Of The Sky

Stories
by Randy Stonehill



 

Michael was funny
He was charming and wild
In my high school days
He was the king of the street
Rode his Harley down Blossom Hill Road
And his life was over in a heartbeat


Not me
I think I'm gonna stick around
I've just got to find out how this movie ends
And as I stumble through the mystery of this life
I'm gonna keep on trying to find a friend

Danny was an actor
He was quick and he was good
But his eyes betrayed a sadness that troubled me
One night they found his empty car down on the beach
He'd just taken off his clothes and walked into the sea

Not me
I think I'm gonna stick around
I've just got to find out how this movie ends
And as I stumble through the mystery of this life
I'm gonna keep on trying to find a friend

Lost and drifting
On the river of longing
Bowed and bloody from the weight of the sky
Longing to call out for someone's forgiveness
But we're not sure who or why
Maybe we're frightened
Like children in the darkness
Chasing shadows in the strangest dream
Sometimes living feels harder than dying
Sometimes it feels like we're trapped in between
In between

Mickey was so beautiful
And gentle and kind
The last time I saw her I almost cried
She'd married a sailor who liked to use his fists
She could bandage all the cuts
But she was dead inside

Not me
I think I'm gonna stick around
I've just got to find out how this movie ends
And as I stumble through the mystery of this life
I'm gonna keep on trying to find a friend
