The world slowly spins and I walk at my own pace
And the blackbird still sings like it did yesterday
The water is clear and this day will end
And there's beauty in things that stay the same
And I might stop here for a while
And learn a lesson, find a place to hide
I'll be a student, I'll do it right
There's something so strange about my mind being this quiet
It feels right until it feels wrong
But there's something so brave about making amends and being patient and carrying on
So I might stay here for a while
And pay attention, at least have a try
I'll be a witness, I'll open my eyes
I'll open my eyes
