Heal

You remind me that my body
Was born to heal before it dies
I never knew it’d be so easy to
Forget that I'm alive

Life is beautiful because
It’s always running out of time
You remind me that my heart
Was born to beat before it dies

I’ll make a mess and make amends
Give or take, twenty eight thousand days
To try to be remade

If I suspend my disbelief
Let this magic trick in me
Be real and let my body heal
Amen

As I grow older, I hold tighter
To a world hellbent on change
I’d be lying if I told you
That I wasn’t afraid

In the currency of memory
Nothing costs more than pain
But you remind me
Fourteen thousand days or so
I'm still okay

You remind me that my body
Was born to heal
You remind me that my body
Was born to heal over time
You remind me that my body
Was born to heal before it dies
You remind me

I’ll make a mess and make amends
Give or take, twenty eight thousand days
To try to be remade

If I suspend my disbelief
Let this magic trick in me
Be real and let my body heal
Amen

I’ll make a mess and make amends
Give or take, twenty eight thousand days
To try again and again

I suspend my disbelief
Let this magic trick in me
Be real and let my body heal
Amen
