Different Planes Lyrics - Kara Johnstad

DIFFERENT PLANES 

music and lyrics by Kara Johnstad 

CD Paths X 

On different planes of different times 

I walk this earth, my head in the sky 

Never quite knowing, where when or why 

Is it just a coincidence? 

Just passing some time? 

Or is there a mystery in the divine. 

My friends are having children 

My grandma's preparing to die 

And as I get in the car, for the long ride home 

In emptiness I cry 

Throated knotted, my eyes dissolve 

In the blackness of the night 

The moon light carries me 

Reflecting on different planes of different times 

We're on different planes of different times 

Different planes of different times 

Different planes of different times 

: 

Houses left, childhood dreams abandoned, 

A father I hardly knew 

I've had a wealth of friends who've come and gone 

The nakedness of truth 

Yet strangely enough I cherish 

The black and empty sky and 

I know I am walking closer to God with every painful good - bye 

Refrain: 

Reflecting on different planes of different times 

Different planes of different times 

Different planes of different times
