I heard there's a rhythm to all living things,
A time signature swinging us through our days.
But down round the belt,
Sometimes I wish my convictions
Were stronger in stance,
Than a tempo too awkward to dance.
I said, "Hey,
I've never been in time with the traffic or the tide but I'm due."
I'm in the back, with a cynical smile,
The sounds of the psalms ricocheting off the walls.
I said, "How was your talk?"
She said, "It helps me feel comforted,
Connected, and loved."
So I packed up my ugliness and I sank,
The beast sank, we sank out the door,
Down into the snowy night. Where I made
An angel for her.
Now I know of a teacup twirling through space.
I know of a monster at the bottom of a lake.
I know a ghost who still balks at the
Thought of a treaty,
In the bout of doubt versus faith.
I said, "Hey,
I've never been right a whole day in my life but I'm due."
Slaying the clouds,
Their carcass in flight,
Are heavenly spears,
Of sunlight
Just down the river, is the one that I love,
But freedom is options, and I got none.
Cause I met a girl who was soft and was white,
I said, "Are you an angel?"
And she stretched out a smile.
I smelled her real strong and was numb
For a night and was gone.
Her toes curled a grip over the carved stone ledge.
She said, "Stop me if you love me."
And her knees started to bend.
I gave a good reach, all I got was a
Thread now she's gone.
Cause snow angels melt in the morning.
I said, "Hey, I've never loved like they sing of in song but I'm due."
A time signature swinging us through our days.
But down round the belt,
Sometimes I wish my convictions
Were stronger in stance,
Than a tempo too awkward to dance.
I said, "Hey,
I've never been in time with the traffic or the tide but I'm due."
I'm in the back, with a cynical smile,
The sounds of the psalms ricocheting off the walls.

The beast sank, we sank out the door,
Down into the snowy night. Where I made
