Permanent

Everything was left in the shallow
Everything you thought you had
Nothing is close to permanent

For a month I sat in my sorrow
Another month of hair trigger pull
Nothing is really permanent

Is there a way we can find
Purpose every day
Around beneath behind
A truth to hold that doesn't fade
Like our bodies do with time
I've been waiting here for you

Fought against my thoughts like a hero
A merit badge worthy of my time
I thought you were permanent

A dismembered man who feels his arm still
I struggle to make sense of what loss contains
I don't want to be permanent

Is there a way we can find
Purpose every day
Around beneath behind
A truth to hold that doesn't fade
Like our bodies do with time
I've been waiting here for you

Put your attention back on the living
There is so much here
Our sisters kids
Our love can be permanent
