Up the Dark Sky

Words by E. Cohen

Music by Poor Lenore

I wanna go

Somewhere high

Take me there

Let me die

Never asked you for much

Never put you in this position

I have but one request

Please let me make this cold transition

*And all that’s there

Is the black, shiny space

With the hell that’s here

It’s just up, the dark sky

Look in my eyes

Know the truth

We are a portion

Of the wasted youth

They’ve broken our backs

Well we’re sick of all of these lies

There’s nothing left for us here

Ascend and be recognized

*Repeat chorus

Cling to your angels (angels)

And keep dry

Under gossamer wings

Hold to your angles (angles)

And all the happiness

They can bring

I will not tell you

Where we’ll be

Tomorrow, my friend

But with great sorrow

I know where we’ll be in the end

*Repeat chorus
