[Verse 1] For all your issues that end with tissues I pray the storm won't find you tonight I pray the pain that's been trying to kiss you Misses your face like I miss your light [Pre-Chorus] You keep reaching for a safer past But nothing happens there, it's gone so fast This very body, this very breath Is where you're born and where you rest [Chorus] Let the dead leaves fall, let them gather on the ground Born with wings of fire, why you crawling through this town? Every wound you hide is a doorway breaking through Every trouble carried is transforming you Don't get lost inside your pain, love, it will turn into your cure Moment you say "I'm here," the locked heart finds a door Nothing lives in yesterday, it's all right here right now To the still mind, the whole wide universe will bow [Verse 2] This very place is your lotus garden Cracks in pavement bloom under your feet Think you're broken beyond all pardon Even your shadows are holy and sweet [Chorus] Let the dead leaves fall, let them gather on the ground Born with wings of light, why you crawling through this town? Every tear that kissed your pillow was a river pulling through Every heartbreak was a vessel made to open you [Bridge] Don't wait, the soul has no yesterday Breeze at dawn is calling you by name Everything in life is a vehicle Driving you out of your own flame of shame [Outro] For all your issues that end with tissues I pray they miss you like I do This very body is your Buddha This very moment is brand new
