lyrics

1. Yeah, your life’s been hard
Like cobblestone, like gravel
Under darkening skies
Endless treacherous travel

2. The news is bad
I won’t lie, ignore or spin
The raven’s wings are spread in flight
Soon, she’ll close them in

(Chorus) So inhale the air
Breathe in your own glorious time
There is no future and no past
No sense, no rhyme

3. So, your time is short
There’s no recourse or way to appeal
And no chance to fold these cards
For a better deal

(Chorus) So inhale the air
Breathe in your own glorious time
There is no future and no past
No sense, no rhyme
And, I’ll tell you now
And I’ll tell you plain, and slow, and clear
You are alive and loved and real
And you are here

4. They say life’s a gift
And a treasure, yeah, it’s true
But yours arrived beyond repair
No one to complain to

5. So, complain to me
Tell me all the scenes you saw
Talk of shoes and ships and sealing wax
Or nothing at all
