A Lid for Every Pot

I wish that I could see me
Like you do
When you try to turn my
Grey skies to blue
You stop the hole in my heart
Moving to my head
Take a shattered vase and
Make it whole again

Tried to strengthen my sails
But they gave
Floating lost, a sinking ship
That no one wants to save
Blow my body out to sea
I am lost
And every time I find a port
I can't afford the cost

Wish that you could see you
When you sleep
Every breath you lose
Is a breath I try to keep
You're the perfect size
For my arms
I don't believe in God
But I'll pray you safe from harm

I pray you safe from harm

Maybe I'm the only thing
That's doing you wrong
'Cause I can't be the only dark cloud
That's blocking all your sun
You were meant to shine so bright
While I dim
And every time I start to hope
I remember who I am

Tried to plug my ears and hum
But they're loud
Reminding me I don't deserve
To laugh, to love, be proud
When my lungs fill with you
I can breathe
I can talk, I can stand
I can write and I can see

Before you came along
I felt I was done
You picked me up, you helped me walk
And then told me to run
Thought that I had found my end
You'd said that I'd not
Still reminding me
"There's a lid for every pot"

A lid for every pot
