I was ever lame and once was there, shallow diggin’ deep With hope and heart to heal Fell into a hole we had dug, covered with some leaves Covered you and me Seems so complicated now we’re down, and wanting to be free I’m happy just to be
And when you feel the running, must have set its roots All other heaviness will one day call a truce I’m happy just to be
Felt it as it angled its way through, a sight I’d never seen And saw it stickin’ through Pulled as much as I could force myself, and it would never do No matter how I try And now it comes to festering and swell, needle stitchin’ threat And close it once it’s clean
And when you feel the running, must have set its roots All other heaviness will one day call a truce I’m happy just to be
