The Ground We Stand On |
| It’s so cold here and I miss you |
| And I can’t help feeling broken |
| I treat myself like I’m not fragile |
| Like there’s no care to be taken |
| And I was up last night just thinking |
| A hundred reasons to be sorry |
| Why don’t you come and lay beside me |
| Since there’s too much now that’s vacant |
| And all the time that we keep wasting |
| Like we don’t know the joy that’s harder to bear |
| For the ground that we stand on |
| Won’t long be there |
| I pray that we will never tire |
| Of the work that lies before us |
| I feel that I will be the weak one |
| And that you will have to carry me |
| I hope there never is a phone call |
| To say it’s too dark to keep trying |
| I hope there’s time left to discover |
| How to cry at all the beauty |
| And all the time that we keep wasting |
| Like we don’t know the pain we’re called to bear |
| For the ground that we stand on |
| Won’t long be there |
| And all the time that we keep wasting |
| Like we don’t know it’s why we stop and stare |
| At the ground that we stand on |
| 'Cause it won’t long be there |
| I guess it’s me there in the mirror |
| But I can’t say that I know him |
| When you tell me that you love me |
| There’s no reason I should doubt you |
