[Verse 1] Sun through the blinds on a Saturday noon Good news arriving before I can brace My friends are all laughing, the rent’s paid ahead Still I’m watching my hands like they’re somebody else’s [Pre-Chorus] I know what I have I can name every good thing But knowing the answer Doesn’t stop the sinking [Chorus] Why can’t I feel it when everything’s fine? The day is a gift and I’m losing the thread I’m grateful, I mean it, I swear that I’m trying Still there’s a tide pulling hard at my head Why can’t I feel it, why can’t I land? A bright life keeps slipping right out of my hands [Verse 2] A text from my best friend: “You made it, you’re good” I read it twice over, then stare at the screen The garden’s in bloom, there’s a song in the car And some part of me won’t come back to the scene [Pre-Chorus] I know what I have I can name every good thing But knowing the answer Doesn’t stop the sinking [Chorus] Why can’t I feel it when everything’s fine? The day is a gift and I’m losing the thread I’m grateful, I mean it, I swear that I’m trying Still there’s a tide pulling hard at my head Why can’t I feel it, why can’t I land? A bright life keeps slipping right out of my hands [Bridge] Maybe this feeling can sit here awhile Without getting called the whole truth I can be thankful and tired at once I can be here, even halfway through [Outro] The sun keeps moving across the same wall I’m still here, though I can’t feel it all
