Tekst piosenki

[Verse 1]
I am one day older than my father was, than he ever got to be
I was 10 years old when I grew up, cause he died at 53
I stared across the great divide, at my mother who was left
The dinner table stretched oceans wide, like the hollow in our chests
I never asked hard questions, I thought they’d cause more pain
I hadn’t yet learned life’s holiest lesson:
„That what is broken cannot heal
Until it’s known and loved by name”

[Chorus]
So tell me your story, I’ll tell you mine
You don’t need to worry, everything’s already alright
You’ll be the universe, nothing to hide
Anywhere you ever need to go, I can carry us home

[Verse 2]
I was taught to bury with the dead the presence of my grief
I see it now, but didn’t then, that silence is a thief
It made strangers out of friends
Robbed me of saving graces offered in unlikely places
I thought I could outrun it in the end
When a shattered heart is desperate, the only respite is to let somebody in

[Chorus]
Tell me your story, I’ll tell you mine
You don’t need to worry, everything’s already alright
You’ll be the universe, nothing to hide
Anywhere you ever need to go, I can carry us home
I can carry us home, I can carry us home

[Outro]
When I speak his name, my voice gives out
Even after all these years
But I want my son to know now
So my son will see my tears
My son will see my tears
