lyrics

They leap upon ya, days of trauma,
Of fire and thunder, shame and fright.
Some to grieve through, some that tattoo
The skin you're in, your dreams at night.

Seems sometimes you've got
Wolves around you.
You're terrified by the
Ghosts that hound you.
But it gets better.
This stormy weather,
It's tethered to this time of life.

Had this friend when I was a young man
Who showed me how to fly a kite.
Not the fun kind,
Those that help find
The people stumbling toward the light.

Seems sometimes you've got
Wolves around you.
You're terrified by the
Ghosts that hound you.
But you've got friends
Who'd love to know you,
And show you through this time of life.

And some day soon
All the trees will blossom,
The floods recede
And these fields, you'll cross 'em.
And exultation, jubilation —
They’re stations, too,
Both times of life.
