Somebody Else's Sky

If you could have been anything upright
Like a lamplight
Holding a line against the darkening sky
You would know
It's so much easier to fade out than to fight
Than to be the only bright star in
Somebody else's sky

If I could have been something to take flight
Like a lost kite
Missing a line back to the shelter of home
I would know
It's so much easier to fly away in the night
Than to reel yourself in tight to
Somebody else's sky

We could have been a story to learn by
In our twilight
We could have found what happens when it finally comes true
We would know
How it ends if we ever really tried
Tried to be the last bit of light in
Somebody else's sky
