Thank You

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

It's 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

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
