| [00:00.76] |
I am sad and grateful |
| [00:02.31] |
I am lonely and rejoicing |
| [00:04.24] |
I ring the bells alone |
| [00:06.35] |
I ring the bells for you |
| [00:08.53] |
Forgive me the impermanence of my joy |
| [00:11.26] |
And the permanence of my joy |
| [00:13.14] |
I am present in my truth |
| [00:14.48] |
|
| [00:15.10] |
Though you were right I lost myself |
| [00:16.63] |
|
| [00:17.60] |
I abide in my discomfort |
| [00:19.97] |
And in everything you gave me |
| [00:21.46] |
|
| [00:22.07] |
I can try to hide from suffering |
| [00:23.73] |
|
| [00:24.28] |
But I know that won't save me |
| [00:26.23] |
I must count it all as joy |
| [00:27.94] |
|
| [00:29.29] |
I must let love be love in me |
| [00:32.02] |
|
| [00:40.60] |
I can be strong I can be kind |
| [00:42.88] |
I can be good to myself and anyone who lets me |
| [00:45.68] |
Now I am simple I am alone |
| [00:48.33] |
Like a pale flower floating on the surface |
| [00:50.61] |
Of the wide sea the world drives |
| [00:52.67] |
Between all of our hearts |
| [00:53.93] |
The one you must navigate in order to love |
| [00:56.03] |
|
| [00:56.59] |
In trying to swim there |
| [00:57.67] |
But refusing to let go |
| [00:59.31] |
We weighed each other down |
| [01:00.51] |
And eventually we drowned |
| [01:01.74] |
We can speak the words of women and angels |
| [01:04.39] |
But without real love it's just sad noise |
| [01:06.91] |
I can open my heart and let everything out |
| [01:09.25] |
But that won't save me |
| [01:10.45] |
I'll just be empty |
| [01:11.67] |
I am raw and awed and frightened |
| [01:13.96] |
In the presence of my truth |
| [01:15.30] |
|
| [01:16.45] |
I am sitting with my fear |
| [01:17.68] |
|
| [01:18.86] |
I am reverent in its light |
| [01:20.25] |
|
| [01:21.28] |
I am starting where I am |
| [01:22.51] |
|
| [01:23.52] |
I move forward on my own |
| [01:25.02] |
|
| [01:26.12] |
And I ring the bells alone |
| [01:27.60] |
|
| [01:28.53] |
But with only you in mind |
