Pretty bluenOn my waynSmoke a hundred cigarettesnCharm the gas station boynBuy you a pack of NicorettenI'm your missionarynYour gurunI'm your godnI've been saving you all alongnnPark the carnRehearse my linesnSay the right things at the right timesnLove you sonMiss you notnGonna wait in the parking lotnTake a moment and gaze up through the sunroofnAnd reach up through the skynTo the starsnFrom the confines of this carnAnd I'm gonenLike a thief escaping in the darknBut I'm stumbling blindlynAnd I'm trapped in the nightnGoodbye, my pretty blue skynnStole awaynAlmost nightnThrough plexiglass we fightnCount the starsnWhat a messnThis universenThis lifenAnd I glide through the open windownSo I can touch the skynThe starsnFrom the confines of this carnAnd I'm gonenLike a thief escaping in the darknBut I'm stumbling blindlynAnd I'm trapped in the nightnGoodbye, my pretty blue skynnThe sky is fallingnScattered starsnLike pieces of my youthnThese are my scars tearingnI've got to heal myselfnNot younnHome, sweet homenA week to gonGonna get some sleep now
