Standing Silent In Your Grace

from Through Acts of God and Idiocy by Jack Holmes

/

lyrics

I stood beside myself
when I saw him in your arms, I saw you both for the very first time
and at a loss of words to say,
I said nothing and stood silent in your grace
Troubled starts and shaky Beginnings
laid no foundations for the man that you became
and now you’re standing here today
with the past lingering behind you and ablaze

I can’t explain just how much it means to see you on your own two feet
just how much it means for me to see
this nest of Thorns and Salt,
that you spent so much time dragging yourself through behind you and ablaze
now when the crying stops and the sirens start to ring
I know you’ll have this under your control

Dear Brother I have seen the world
and I’d give it all to see from your eyes,
the suicide of the man that you used to be
