Lyrics

There's a fly trapped between the window and the screen
Does he know he only lives for the day?
And I didn't mean to let him in
And I don't believe life is suffering
But sometimes it sure looks that way
If I could give a piece of me to bring your mind some ease
I'd tear myself limb from limb
But for now I stand between the martyr and the priest
'Cause we know there's something sweet
Beneath the fear and trembling
And honey I know it's been a year of earthquakes
And your heart is full of canyons
And your hands have got the shakes
But one day you'll wake up
And you'll be glad to be awake
You'll see your joy was never fragile
And your love was no mistake
There's a dandelion seed growing in the cracked concrete
Where the ground's got nothing to give
And it's a miracle to me that where everything is ugly
There's still room for green things to live
So until the laughing's easy, we're gonna laugh real hard
And until we find a map, we're gonna navigate by stars
'Til we got somewhere to go, we're gonna dance in parking lots
'Cause the folks that see right past you
They ain't got half of what you got
And honey I know it's been a year of earthquakes
And your heart is full of canyons
And your hands have got the shakes
But one day you'll wake up
And you'll be glad to be awake
You'll see your joy was never fragile
And your love was no mistake
Your love was no mistake
