Midnight Reverie

Mm, here we go

A little light through the room

I woke to the sound of the kettle again Same cracked cup

on the side of the sink Dust on the frame where your

picture had been Still,

I could swear that I saw it still blink I carry the

day like a coat on a chair Half on my shoulders,

half falling away Nobody sees how I straighten the air Trying to

make myself fit in the day But I feel something turning

Like a lock giving way

If I lean toward the morning Maybe I'll learn how to stay

I am coming back to life tonight Bit by bit,

breath by breath, I rise From the quiet weight I used to

hide I can feel my heart move into light If the road

is long, I'll take my time One small spark can redraw the

sky I am

coming back to life tonight

I know the names of the cracks in the wall Places I

stared when I could not sleep Now there's a breeze making curtains

all fall Like every promise I wanted to keep I don't need

thunder to open the door I don't need perfect to start over

new Just a small step from the edge of before Just enough

faith to believe I come through Oh,

the night was long

But it taught

me my name

And the ache in my chest Wasn't made there to stay

So I open my hands And I let in the day

I am coming back

to life tonight

Bit by bit,

breath by breath, I rise From the quiet weight I used to

hide I can feel my heart move into light

If the road is long,

I'll take my time One small spark can redraw the sky I

am coming back to life tonight

Back to life tonight

Back to life tonight

Mm,

into light
