I experienced a miracle tonight You'd probably laugh If I tell you exactly what I mean by miracle so I wont But I found it, alone and forgotten In the corner of the room
I say miracle because it came to me In my time of need, sleep wouldn't come I was up thinking of what I should've said What I could possibly say to you tomorrow Trying in vain to lose this desperate feeling So scoff as you might, a miracle Happened here tonight, a gift From the **** gods
I know, I know, it was just a gift From one of my stoner friends But it was a everything to me, so I went to my room, put on some music And prepared to write you this To somehow help me say what I need to say And when my phone sang of death As I so often like to do, I saw your face And I was terrified
You made me feel something I haven't felt in ages
I hate spending time worrying about what-ifs I try to focus on only what I know What if I left the stove on and the house burnt down? What if I just can't pay my bills and have to live with my parents? What if Christians are right about God and I'm going to Hell? What if somewhere it rained apple juice and chocolate covered raisins? You get it, the list goes on forever
But... what if you loved me What then? I believe in a lot of things People meet for a reason Rarely yeah, but sometimes And I haven't figured out If I met you for a reason yet So for that instant As I considered myself at the end of things Instead of being at peace I was absolutely petrified Of never finding out
What if I loved you? What if you were the final piece of this puzzle? Like I said, I believe in a lot of things Miracles being one of them Yeah, it may be a shallow excuse for a so called act of God But look, it helped this all come pouring out It made me think of you
If only I had a machine or crystal ball Or an app on this stupid smart phone To show me all of the ******* possibilities... Scratch that, I already know It'd probably show you in my arms As we rest in the shade of a blossoming cherry tree Show me sleeping with my ear over your heart Soothed by the symphony of the blood in your veins Show us everything we've ever hoped to find And if the weight of my own loneliness Fails to grind my backbone into dust It will be a miracle
Oh, miracles... Life is the biggest one that I know of Our existence itself the greatest gift of all It's sad how it's usually only appreciated In the face of its own ending Or in the faces of the ones Who flash before your eyes in that moment Like yours, and I don't even know you yet Who's to say that I ever will So what the **** does this mean?
Now I can't help but ask myself Do I really believe in all that ******* I say? That death is not an abyss, I am the Universe So even if I was truly dying, take comfort Embrace it, all life must end someday And when my time is up, I will finally know you As if I always have, as if we were Never apart in the first place
Now those ******* questions That can't be answered Have me staying up to ask The moon, the stars In vain
What if there is only darkness after death? What if this life is my only chance to know love? What if all the nights such as this mean nothing at all?
The worst part of this whole thing is That I might never find out.
