Welcome to the party
As you're thrown into the light
A shadow at each side
First tears, wild eyes
If you could see the whole world
Both beautiful and terrible
Sometimes thrilling, sometimes dull
A sound of first snow
There's sense of fear I can't ignore
What have I brought you here for?
I hold to the breath right inside your chest
Like the rise and fall of all of everything
Sometimes I wish things were not this way
But I don't really know a single thing
So, I've been trying to listen
To the word your heartbeat's given
"There is a grace in everything "
Welcome to the party
It's a gift just to be alive
A newness after every night
Such a strange thing to be something
If you start to listen
There's song here from long ago
You can take with you on the road
Soundtrack your home
I hold this life like an ice cream cake
Melting through my fingers on sunny day
Everything just slips by
Existence is a quick ride
A place beyond might remain
Most days I hope that's the case
But I don't really know a single thing
I've been trying to listen
Words your heartbeat's given
There is a grace in everything
Remember,
You are so loved
So you can always sow love
