Fear of the Sky

"If the sun melted the sky
and the sky dripped down on us
would it burn bad enough to kill
or would it just shroud the world
in a pale, pale blue?"
"Sydney, the sky is not going to melt."
"But if it did . . ."

"If the sky fell
would it crush us or
would it just cover everything
in a deep, deep blue?"
"The sky isn't falling, Syd."
"But if it does . . ."

"When the sky runs away
will it be like night all the time or
will it just be black and cold?"
"The sky is staying right where it is."
"But when it runs away . . .
"Sydney, the sky is fine."
"The sky scares me."
