lyrics

And so will we fall through all our troubled sleep
And awaken to panic, guilt and to dread
And then we will fall through the floor once more
And then into tears and laughter instead

And wonder and sorrow over everything that is
How much it matters, in ecstatic clarity and madness
And every thread of the dread comedy of foolishness
That we really existed! And we really did this!

And nothing can be undone
only tended, and forgiven

Then shall we open our small clenched fists
And hold out palms of powerless thankfulness
For everything we received was gift
And there’s been no small measure of love in our midst

And finally, stand we all, in defeated awe
At everything that is, and was, and shall be evermore
