Living

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Moonlight climbed through the window And I followed it back out To the middle of the yard And laid myself right down In borrowed light and stretched out like a star Taking in the night jars [Pre-Chorus] Just existing can be hard Maybe living is an art [Verse 2] We were walking along the shoreline Still too cold for summer clothes True, I dove in on a dare But I'd have done it anyway, we both know I say, "Gather the wind in your fists Perfect conditions don't exist" Living's what I call it The other word don't fit [Verse 3] Today, pruning trees Cutting back honey locust thorns I tore through my glove Blood ran red and warm And I'm learning first-hand again Pain can live on its own and get past your skin Living when I'm honest It can be punishing [Pre-Chorus] And just existing can be hard Maybe living is an art
