Sweet blessing,
why are you playing dead, eyes in the back of your head?
I know even though your skin is cold
You’re playing the fool in me.
Just last week? Just last week
you wrapped your pretty head around this old tree
and tried your best to drown
but when darkness came down
Whispered please save me…
Sweet blessing come back, come back down
Way down with your hands on the…
‘Cause lately I’ve been thinking of
starting over as we grow young.
On Sundays you go to church alone
Leave your sister’s children
Wondering why their two moms are so distracted…
When you come back
you come back, and break all the mirrors again
and scream that dying’s the only fair thing
that’s left in this world.
Sweet blessing come back, come back down
Way down with your hands on the…
‘Cause lately I’ve been thinking of
starting over as we grow young.
Close those books
Close those books, they smell like dust and ghosts
These old words can’t convey the pain
’cause our time is forever near us.
I know a place…
Know a place where almighty sky in the rain
Towers above the earth where we once lay
So bring that broken…
Broken violin with just one string
And I’ll, I’ll bring the drums
and we’ll sing and dance a play the darkness away.
Sweet blessing come back, come back down
Way down with your hands on the…
’cause lately I’ve been thinking of
Starting over as we grow young.
