Brian Eno — 4 Skies lyrics

Lyrics

One sky was orange;
Some skies are grey
Or a deep dark blue
That gave blue it’s name:
A sky like a room
At the top of a house,
A most violent sky
Hanging low over water.
I need a way
To say «you're scortching»
A seething, crumpled, teeming sky.
One sky on stage:
Heathen and round.
Heat removes
What was left of sound.
Braiding two snakes…
Cover clouds with your arm…
Black hair turning red…
Sunset on a sweater…
Why do we feel
Like it might break?
A seething, crumpled, teeming sky.
