lyrics

I am you when you are there
I can’t move unless you bleed my layers
And the only thing that’s keeping me
Is the light you hold for me
Every loss and every rut
Brings me closer to the gift you brought
I don’t know how long you’ll be with me
But I hope I live to see

Are you ever uncertain?
Are you ever afraid?
Did you talk to my father?
Do you know me by name?
Can you see where the edge is?
Am I closer than you?
Are you trapped in the circle?
Are you gonna die too?

Will you speak to me
If I listen?
Are you leaving me
Did I miss it?

God I wonder what happened
Something isn’t quite right
Don’t you see how the shadows
Won’t react to the light?
If I ask the right question
Will you tell me what’s wrong?
Every answer is deeper
And I can’t hold my breath for that long

I can see now.
My heart warms at the thought.
To think we once would see a stone
And know it only as a rock,
Lifeless and separate from our self.
Everything then is with us now
And we rejoice in it.
