Lightning

Summer storm
Sky looks like hailing
And I'm green, too
With too many days
Not knowing you
Trying to walk it back
I watch the lightning
But I can't sing like that

And if you dream
Who is it that you see?
'Cause it isn't me
When you dressed me in
A different skin
I forgot who I am
I watched it happen
But I can't understand

And I found out
Freedom is empty
When it's all you have
With no common love
To take it from
Out of my open hand
I want the lightning
But I can't live like that
