Because
I'm alive today
Even though it could have gone
A trillion other ways
X a trillion other ways...
Because
I'm not here to stay
Tomorrow won't promise me
The breath I need to play
Even though I pray...
Because I woke up
Despite everything
Because I woke up
Inside everything
I say
I arrived today
Because
I took a break
Faith was all but gone
And I lost my stake
And that one's hard to shake
Because
I just couldn't take
Heaven's promise to me
Over this World's sake
It's just a promise I couldn't make
Because I woke up
To a church bell ring
But it rang out on this
Eternal, mortal spring
And holy flowers rose
From everything
Straight from the eye
I say
I arrived today
