about

Piano ballad meditating on heartbreak

lyrics

Grace, it don't come easy for me
Narrow as a balance beam, I'm all over the place
I flail when sadness sends me off the rails
There's no moral to the tale, no patterns to trace

Chopping down my bodhi tree
Shaking the ground right under me
Well I am surrendering
To gravity

Grace comes far too late to rescue me
Just a Pyrrhic victory, leaves me in the cold
After you, I've got no sunset to ride into
I'd rather make the broken new,
Turn a leaden love to gold

I'm going up to outer space
A holiday from the human race
From memories that I cannot erase
Am I up to the challenge of grace?

Grace, it don't come easy to me
