When the sky was blue I was but a tot
playing in the parking lot
all 4 seasons came at its given time
stealing a candy bar was a major crime
fun was the order of the day
25 cents went a long way
just watching the airplanes take off into the sky
me wondering whats above those clouds so high
when the sky was blue the air was fresh
knew nothing of the meshing of flesh
I never knew of an ozone
and
my castle was our home
going to school was cool
now killing fellow students is the rule
somewhere along the way I was off to war
half way around the world very far
to kill a man I never knew
when the sky was blue everything was okay
somewhere in between the sky turned dark and grey
let us pray it does not stay that way
