lyrics

what’s that in the sky…hovering over me right now?
I’ve still got sleep in my eyes…do they deceive me, or is this real life now?
it must be a dream…but even a dream ends before it takes off
and I’ve been here for hours, it seems…I’m awake and it’s not a mirage
there’s a pig in the sky…flying above me and turning the sunlight pink
I think I whispered goodbye…before I should’ve, and now I cannot think
and if I could, there’d be no words
to sum up everything this means to my soul
it’s not the end of the world
it’s the beginning of a new one…here we go
I was in the bottom of heaven when they cut him loose
and this battering ram made our stone giants move
when we picked our hooves up to turn around and face it
our welcome home march ended in humiliation
the lost time we spent just ignited my temper
I never thought I’d have to say goodbye forever
but it looks like my farewell was only one night
the pig’s in the air making its final flight
the pig’s in the air making its final flight
the pig’s in the air making its final flight
the pig’s in the air making its final flight
