Sky Division – “Your Sky Is Too Wide“, 2026 / Primitive Heart
(a young woman singing about her love, about two worldviews, about finding common ground between two hearts)
Your Sky Is Too Wide (Lyrics)
Bare feet
Dust on my sundress hem
You roll your smoke on a fire escape
Saying you never learned to swim
I talk about cows and county fairs
You talk about basement shows
Your jacket smells like spilled beer and rain
My hair smells like hay and soap
Between dirt roads and dead-end streets
We trade our scars
Our secret beats
You say “Your sky is too wide”
I say “Your walls are too tight”
Somewhere between the drawl and the shout
We’re learning what this love’s about
You wear a safety pin halo
Over that tired band tee
I wear my grandma’s silver ring
You ask if that’s a chain on me
You teach me to shout on the corner
I show you where the wild figs grow
You dance like glass in a thunderstorm
I sway like tall grass slow
Between dirt roads and dead-end streets
We trade our scars
Our secret beats
You say “Your sky is too wide”
I say “Your walls are too tight”
Somewhere between the drawl and the shout
We’re learning what this love’s about
You dream in subway colors
I dream in open fields
You want to set fire to every rule
I just want something real
Your hand finds my calloused hand
In the hum of passing cars
And suddenly the city’s just a small town
Under unfamiliar stars
Between dirt roads and dead-end streets
We trade our scars
Our secret beats
You say “Your sky is too wide”
I say “Your walls are too tight”
Here in the hush after the sound
We’re finding common ground
One boot
One heel by the bedside
One heart split side to side
In the quiet where the two worlds meet
You breathe in
I breathe out
Same tide
