Lyrics

[Verse 1] Baby baby, baby baby You went home for Thanksgiving Braced for the darkness Of the disconnected life Braced for the attacks from the easy chair And when it was time to leave You went to say goodbye A flash went up your spine Instead you said, no one, no one Nobody, nobody No one ever taught you but you know [Verse 2] Baby baby, baby baby And as you went to leave He half rose up from his easy chair And tiny flames licked the walls And up your mother's calves A storm was comin' And you better get out of therе fast So you went to say goodbye A flash went up your spinе Instead you said, I thank you For all the things you sacrificed He tried to curse you But instead he begged forgiveness And you held him as he cried [Bridge] You are the rage of a lion In a cage at night The roar of a mother Bringing her baby back to life [Verse 3] Baby baby baby, baby baby baby And when you reached the subway You stumbled down the stairs Confused by a different kind of pain You drifted towards the track And no one had your back But the angels pressed Through the frightened crowd Someone screamed, a baby cried No one told you, no one told you Nobody, nobody, no one ever told you But somehow you've always known [Outro] May you never be so alone again May the subway tracks rise up And throw you back to friends May you feel the angels Bend closer when you call May you see your own beauty As you'll see it in us all But beyond all this, beyond all this The nobleness of gristle and The magnificence of grist There's just one thing You need recall and it is this You always have been And always will be well
