CORNER

From day one you pushed me forward

Never once stopped to take a breath

When I look for you, you’re standing in my corner

 

I woke up to the wind and you came running

You whisper through the noise

It’s looking like the storm is worse than we thought

it’s time to go

 

But what about everything?

You said, “I’m already holding you”

 

From day one you pushed me forward

Never once stopped to take a breath

When I look for you, you’re standing in my corner

Holding up the world

Maybe somehow I’ll return the favor

I’ll never come close

 

I woke up from a dream, the world was ending

The house was on fire

And so were you but you were only throwing water

On me

 

I watched our home burn down and take you with it

When the smoke cleared, a castle came up from the rubble, beautiful

A superhero, mighty and immovable

You were still standing

 

From day one you pushed me forward

Never once stopped to take a breath

When I look for you, you’re standing in my corner

(Holding up the world)

Maybe somehow I’ll return the favor

I’ll never come close
