Tucked in like I'm sleeping Hold tight to my dreaming The future barks like a dog outside I'm pretending I don't hear it The good day's always leaving See the wrinkles around my parents eyes deepen Been awhile since I've seen 'em Kinda woke me up
Every shadow of change When it's good, when it's painful All that is All that has been Every dagger of grace Is a gift, I am grateful All that is I say thank you
A billion eyes that are wakin' A billion hearts that are breakin' Feel the poison in my own blood Every night I try to face it Every mountain try to face it Every failure try to face it Feel the poison in my own blood, but I know the fever breaks
Every shadow of change When it's good, when it's painful All that is All that has been Every dagger of grace Is a gift, I am grateful All that is I say thank you
Can't count on the timing Can't plan on arriving Feel the balance in soil And in the wind while I'm driving Time moves like a river Each breath I'm reminded To reach heavy in the silence Till the whistle cries
