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 groundSeconds, 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 goneDon't set your level too high
Just lower the line of the skyYou 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 aliveBecame husbands and wives, nomatter how they strivedSeconds, 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 mindGonna 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
