Lyrics

I’ve been thinking ‘bout a green field
Far beyond the wall
Fairest field of all
But every time I try to leave here
Some inchoate call
Leads me to a fall
I’m not half the man I thought I’d be by now

I’ve been searching for a blue sky
Just beyond my hand
Broken promised land
But every time I see the truth I
Wonder what I am
The imitation man
I see my shadow cast a shadow on the earth

What have I done?
I never wanted to hurt anyone
Least of all, you
Not what I intended to do

I’ve been underneath a yellow sun
All that it reveals
Should’ve stayed concealed
I’ve been oversold by everyone
Life is so unreal
So is your green field
But the paths we choose were plotted long ago

What have I done?
I never wanted to hurt anyone
Least of all, you
Not what I intended to do
All that I touch
Runs away backwards or turns into dust
Break but don’t bend
Why start again when we both know the end?
