COME LOW
May your bad habits make you bold
May the loves you know be manifold
May you mystify, unmoor, confuse
May you have and lose and have and lose
May your sorrows send you far and wide
May your blind persistence cleave the tide
May your envy gild your walking shoes
Light your pockets, bright your blues.
CHORUS:
May your smallness make the world more vast
May death come late, come soft, come fast
May you know desire's warmest glow
May death come late, come sweet, come low.
May your misadventures overlap
Your anxiety a detailed map
May your pacing grant you iron heels
May your panic grant you rolling wheels
May your old ghosts inflate your sails
May their groaning be your nightengale
May your anger be your marching tune
Your lunacy the rising moon
CHORUS
You're afraid
You're afraid cause you're alive
You are saved
You are saved cause you're alive
