Only Sky

I'm standing on the edge
Waiting for a change
Praying the tracks will lead me
To somewhere far away

Away from who I am
And all the things I lack
Escape the cloud that follows me
I'm never coming back

I'm waiting for a sign
And the seconds move so slow
Have I missed my chance already?
Have I missed my chance to go?

I've waited here for days
To run is all I've known
Standing still this long is torture
I just feel so alone

The tracks are empty
And around me, only sky
I've dreamt of its arrival
I've heard it whistle by

I haven't seen a soul
Or another on the track
This train has left the station
Is it ever coming back?

It's never coming back
