Different Planes Lyrics

DIFFERENT PLANES
music and lyrics by Kara Johnstad
CD Paths XOn different planes of different times
I walk this earth, my head in the sky
Never quite knowing, where when or whyIs it just a coincidence?
Just passing some time?
Or is there a mystery in the divine.My friends are having children
My grandma's preparing to die
And as I get in the car, for the long ride home
In emptiness I cryThroated knotted, my eyes dissolve
In the blackness of the night
The moon light carries me
Reflecting on different planes of different timesWe're on different planes of different times
Different planes of different times
Different planes of different times
:
Houses left, childhood dreams abandoned,
A father I hardly knew

I've had a wealth of friends who've come and gone
The nakedness of truthYet strangely enough I cherish
The black and empty sky and
I know I am walking closer to God with every painful good - byeRefrain:
Reflecting on different planes of different times
Different planes of different times
Different planes of different times
