Rendezvous

(album: What Makes It Through - 2021)

Forgiveness is a tour of duty
Is a hall of mirrors is a haunted house
And I held it till it burrowed through me
Till it hit the bone had to let it out
I want to let you in
Even now a new beginning
Even now a new beginning

All the courage even small
To set the boundary to set the bone
To be tough and vulnerable
Not to bear it all alone
I want to let you in
Feel the howl and the hymn
Feel the howl and the hymn

I have to break the seal
Of this warm interior
Set out across the field
Of landmine and cold
Say I won't be everything for myself
For every good a threshold
For every good a threshold

I forgot, then remembered
It's so strange what makes it through
It's so heavy what we carry
On our way to rendezvous
I want to let you in
With a wild abandonment
With a wild abandonment
With a wild abandonment
