about

Originally written in the 70's and recorded with my good friend Alex Greenspan in Manhasset, Long Island, the song was deemed too slow for my band at the time. When I came across it again in 2005, it seemed like the perfect fit for the Margin of Error track list. It was very much like revisiting time, a time then riddled with uncertainties...

lyrics

IN THE BLUE SKY

IN THE BLUE SKY
SOME PLANES ARE PASSING BY
IN THE LINES
THEY LEAVE OVER BEHIND
I SEE A STRANGE INSCRIPTION
A MESSAGE OF CONFUSION
WHAT IS THEIR DESTINATION
I WISH I'D FIND
WHAT IS THAT UNKNOWN MISSION
MAKING THEM RUN

IN THE PAPERS
I READ A LINE OF THOUGHTS
MAKING ME WONDER
ABOUT THE MILLION GOALS
BORNE OF INDOCTRINATION
A COURSE STRIPPED OF OPINIONS
I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY'RE SAYING
IN MY MIND
I ONLY CARE FOR THE THINGS
WHICH ARE MINE

ORGANIZED FANATICISM
LEADS THE DRIVE TO CHANGE THE OTHERS

WHAT IS THEIR DESTINATION
I WISH I'D FIND
WHAT IS THAT UNKNOWN MISSION
KEEPING THEM BLIND
