Meaning Well

Mama said
To be clear is to be kind
With her gospel on my mind
I made the call

It wasn't easy
To break yours is to break mine
To foster the decline
To trust the fall

Choked it out
When I said I had to go
Singing sparrow to the crow
I cut my teeth

Made of glass
And I wear it all upon my sleeve
Just as sharp as she is meaning well
Meaning well
Meaning well

And I'll be honest even if it hurts like hell
And it hurts like hell
Oh can't you tell
That I'm trying to do what's right
And do it well

So tell me, Ma
Does it ever go away?
The weight that remains
Behind my tongue

Days are quiet
When you're in my shoes
The consolation blues
They never come
And they'll never come

They'll never come
Like the sparrow that I was, I sung
Wish I could fly
Oceans
But once was hard enough, and then some

Mama said
To be clear is to be kind
With her gospel on my mind
I made the call
