Sky Flying By Lyrics
nothing has divided you it's growing older faster than it should
pieces of me outside your door so you're not at home i'd like to not wonder
where you are blurry eyed my feet leave the ground see that sky flying by see
the streetlights spin and blend proving it's not a faster scar so i'll just
leave it there you could maybe pick it up only you could see what it was and
i'll just lay it to rest i'll get up and leave knowing that you'll see it
lying there
pieces of me outside your door so you're not at home i'd like to not wonder
where you are blurry eyed my feet leave the ground see that sky flying by see
the streetlights spin and blend proving it's not a faster scar so i'll just
leave it there you could maybe pick it up only you could see what it was and
i'll just lay it to rest i'll get up and leave knowing that you'll see it
lying there

This song makes me cry a great deal if I listen to it sometimes. For me it means how life is changing so fast and you can't even stop to see the sky flying by. And I'm only 17 :\
why did you say that? shit, now i feel like crying. i want someone here who understands me. no one in my adult life has ever seen me cry. 18.
i think this is about a girl whos cheating on him, or who has dumped him and he wants her love. bukowski ur not alone....16
IIRC, the song was written when the singer, Jason Beebout, was sitting in a cafe or coffee shop outside, tripping on acid, and was staring at people and the clouds floating by. I read this in an interview. It's been a while since I read it so there may be more details. I'm just going off memory. So, being that the lyrics are drug-influenced, this song could mean anything and you should probably just go with what it's saying to you.
