Lyrics

HEALING
by Betsy Walter


no, they/we just can't help it
they/we are made just as they/we are
buried under the bullshit/pundits
that darkens/who darken the light from their/our tiny star
if they/we could get just one chance
to show what they're/we're made of
that they/we didn't choose
then maybe, maybe, maybe someone would see
healing is what they/we do
and with the/this song they/I write
they/I just might heal you

no, they just can't help it
those dancers who just gotta move
and the players of the music and poets of the words
and the voices of those singing birds
blessed and cursed is the artist
as the world flows from fingertips
onto a canvas no one seems to understand, it's true
they're/we're all searching, hoping, praying someone would see
healing is what they/we do
and as their/my song paints your silence
it might just heal you

and maybe the/this song they/I write
just might heal me, too

no, they/we just can't help it
they/we are made just as they/we are
