about

Three vignettes, for beloveds who stick around.

lyrics

The first two months were just a feeling
An IV dripping in the vein
When all the joy was so untainted
Like Eden, pure before the pain

But we pulled back the curtain
And fought to make it through
Found that love was worth it
And finally told the truth

I’m glad you’re still
I’m glad you’re still
I’m glad you’re still around
I’m glad you’re still
I’m glad you’re still
I’m glad you’re still around
Still around

I did the laundry in the ninth grade
Our home was quiet with you gone
You fought the chemicals inside you
Like darkness just before the dawn

We wondered if we’d lost you
Your eyes had lost their glow
But miracles still come true
And I hope you’ll always know

Chorus

You aren’t the one I was afraid of
Some distance I could never reach
So scared of messing up my chances
I hid the love you gave to me

But grace ain’t on condition
And God ain’t up the hill
He’s closer than a vision
Like prophecy fulfilled

Chorus
