Miracle

Walking on the city concrete
I fall into a vision on Front Street
And I see it all in dismal imagery
Sounds and the sights as they hang on over me
And the faces of all the pedestrians
The strangers I pass that look like friends
There’s a number all allotted to them
Oh, the time we have on this rock, well-spent

Is it a miracle?
That we’re all around
In a world so spherical
That we’re not left here and now

Now I’m standing at the edge of the ocean
Hеart heavy in the town I grew up in
And my fеars are drowned in the fading blue
I’m out on the shore reaching out to you
And right there on the water it hits me
For every ounce of suffering and mystery
There’s a child that’s born in a hospital
A flower that blooms in the freezing cold

And it’s a miracle
Of cosmic chance
A goddamn miracle
Held by the hands of no master plan

In all the highs, and all the lows
The mystery that consumes us whole
There isn’t a single thing we know
It’s a fucked up show
It’s a miracle

But I can’t just let time pass me by
With an aching heart for an alibi
Help me learn to love the air I breathe
The light in the eyes of the irony
Because all in all, I have it all
When all I am is a miracle
