The music to "Prisoners Of The Sky" was written in 1969 and remained dormant for 40 years, popping up now and then before I managed to finish it. Love BC Coogan's organ playing.
lyrics
There's language in your eyes in your cheeks and lips
But your words are poison to my heart
My calamity set in stone Any progress rarely noticed
Contention pays no debts I don't need more Disappointment
I will never find another human who understands
Yet I live, I live as I dream -
I know you will never forgive me but I can't choose love With your eyes
I'm not scared of empty spaces I don't need drugs to cheat my loneliness. I don't tell secrets to strangers
And yes, I don't trust you and nothing's more lonely than being in love with a liar
So I'll take solitude, I'll take lonely and you can drain yourself of all that drama
A thorn in the flesh that disappears when the phone rings
A million stars in the sky a million planets plunge and die
Your beauty is indescribable A wheel in the middle of a wheel
But loneliness is your company, too
With the world, the flesh, and the vending machines in the lobby
Your heart's a green apple all hard and sour
I remember that happiness made you afraid
I sleep and life is beauty
Your company is my duty
I serve my innocence into white hair I serve my innocence
Jonah prays and sings his canticles
Jonah prays and sings his canticles
Prisoners of the sky You and I
