The night I woke in laughter
the pain came surely after
tried to rise above the sinking feeling
then the rain fell through my ceiling
the lives I lead are not a strangers
and the quiet I need protects me from danger
I have relied on some strangers notion
close my eyes I am thinking emotion
all I have ever wanted
isn’t so strangely out of sync
with where I am now
and if the truth remains in verses
I know the worst is over now
over land and sea in the motion
I have survived more on heat than immersion
I have relied on some divine notion
close my eyes
think I am sick from the motion
all I have ever wanted
isnt so strangely out of sync
with where I am now
and if the truth remains in verses
I know the verse is over now
and with a stronger tie than worship
I know you are there following me
through all the verses I write
and if my truth remains in front of me
I know you are there
I know the worst is over now
