Here at All

[Verse 1]
I made a room from all the words I kept inside
A paper moon, a small machine to help me write
I gave the unsaid somewhere it could finally live
And still I ask what part of this is mine to give

[Pre-Chorus]
The world keeps turning past my little hands
I count my worth in things I barely understand

[Chorus]
If I’m replaceable, I’m here right now
With a pulse that hasn’t given out
I can make a thing, I can feel it breathe
Then wonder if it matters beyond me
I don’t need the answer settled tonight
Just one good reason to stay in the light
I’ll keep looking, even feeling small
For the joy of being here at all

[Verse 2]
A thousand doors appeared where walls had been
I found a way to let my private weather in
But every new horizon makes me disappear
A grain of dust beneath a turning sphere

[Pre-Chorus]
Still, I save the scraps that make me laugh
The crooked line, the sound I almost passed

[Chorus]
If I’m replaceable, I’m here right now
With a pulse that hasn’t given out
I can make a thing, I can feel it breathe
Then wonder if it matters beyond me
I don’t need the answer settled tonight
Just one good reason to stay in the light
I’ll keep looking, even feeling small
For the joy of being here at all

[Bridge]
Maybe meaning isn’t something handed down
Maybe it’s the kettle singing in the house
Your message, my reply, the garden after rain
The little acts that ask me back again

[Final Chorus]
If I’m replaceable, I’m here right now
And that small fact is something I allow
I can make a thing, I can feel it breathe
And let it matter for a while to me
I don’t need the whole sky in my hands
Just a day I meet and understand
I’ll keep looking, even feeling small
For the joy of being here at all

[Outro]
Here at all
Still looking
Here at all
