You Can See Something Else

I know I'm posting a lot of lyrics lately. Sometimes it's because I just love the song, sometimes it's because the lyrics say something better than I can and sometimes it's because I don't trust my voice (fingers) to spew forth only the vague and appropriate information. Sometimes I want to tell all the gory details that Grace tells me should be kept to myself because the details aren't what matters right now. It's the healing and the forgiveness that matters most.

I was about to give up and that's no lie
cardinal landed outside my window
threw his head back and sang a song
so beautiful it made me cry

took me back to a childhood tree
full of birds and dreams

from this one place I can't see very far
in this one moment I'm square in the dark
these are the things I will trust in my heart
you can see something else
something else

I don't know what's making me so afraid
tiny cloud over my head
heavy and grey with a hint of dread
I don't like to feel this way

take me back to a window seat
with clouds beneath my feet

from this one place I can't see very far
in this one moment I'm square in the dark
these are the things I will trust in my heart
you can see something else
something else
