Intro [Guitar]
Verse 1
I Am One Day Older Than My Father Was Than He Ever Got To Be
I Was Ten Years Old When I Grew Up Cause He Died At 53
I Stared Across The Great Divide At My Mother Who Was Left
The Dinner Table Stretched Oceans Wide Like The Hollow In Our Chests
Pre-Hook
I Never Asked Hard Questions I Thought They'd Cause More Pain
I Hadn't Yet Learned Life's Holiest Lesson
That What Is Broken Cannot Heal Until It's Known And Loved By Name
Hook
So Tell Me Your Story I'll Tell You Mine
You Don't Need To Worry Everything's Already Alright
You Be The Universe Nothing To Hide
Anywhere You Ever Need To Go I Can Carry Us Home
Instruments
Verse 3
I Was Taught To Bury With The Dead The Presence Of My Grief
I See It Now, But Didn't Then That Silence Is A Thief
Pre-Hook 2
It Made Strangers Out Of Friends
Robbed Me Of Saving Graces Offered In Unlikely Places
I Thought I Could Outrun It In The End
But When A Shattered Heart Is Desperate
The Only Respite Is To Let Somebody In
Instruments
I Can Carry Us Home I Can Carry Us Home
Ending [Cool Down]
When I Speak His Name My Voice Gives Out
Even After All These Years
But I Want My Son To Know Me Now
So My Son Will See My Tears My Son Will See My Tears
