Beauty and Brokenness Lyrics

We're facing Italy's heel

Still tracing, distant foothills

And I'm waiting for the water

To come clean and move us forward

A sunshine, coastal ghost town

Arabian songs still ring out

Over cigarette and sand shores

Maybe one day, it'll downpour

And the rain, will wipe, away

All the pain from yesterday

But it's fair to say, off-season

Is where we've found feet in

The blue seems just, beyond us

Out of reach, far in the distance

The colours peak out nervous

Within the cracks, of the surface

Small flowers prickle the pavement

Beauty always finds a way in

And the rain, will wipe, away

All the pain from yesterday

Why was I waiting for the perfect place, and perfect time

Did I try too hard to toe the line

Between dreams of connectivity, and reality that were mine

Did I miss, every single sign

Oh the, overgrowth was normal

With undertones of freedom

But the rising flood, abnormal

Made me wanna believe abundance

Some come on, rain, and wipe away

All the pain from each yesterday

And let the earth rise up again

To find its place among the brokenness
