- I once knew your father well
He fought tears as he spoke of your mother's health
I guess a part of him just couldn't return
Forgiveness is a lesson he cursed you to learn
As your guardian I was instructed well
To make sense of God's love in these fires of hell
No I don't expect you to understand
Just to live what little life your broken heart can
Maybe your light is the seed
And the darkness the dirt
In spite of the uneven odds
Beauty lifts from the earth
From the earth
From the earth
As the years move on these questions take shape
Are you getting stronger or is time shifting weight?
No one expects you to understand
Just to live what little life your mended heart can
You'll always remember the moment God took her away
For the weight of the world was placed on your shoulders that day
Maybe your light is the seed
And the darkness the dirt
In spite of the uneven odds
Beauty lifts from the earth
From the earth
From the earth
From the earth
From the earth
You're much too young now
So I write these words down
"Darkness exists to make light truly count"
This has been one of my favorite songs for YEARS. I literally could have written it with how accurate it is to my life and the way I've learned to view suffering.
What do you think of that last line "Darkness exists to make light truly count." ???
My favourite bit from the song 😔
Your voice sounds like magic in this song, truly something beautiful. I.think just exactly like the song said...we always remember moment when they leave. it just stays right there...as if time stops
Thank. You. You made me remember her. ❤
Amazing ❤
I remember back when I was a kid after my mom passed I'd walk into my dad's room sometimes and see him crying while he looked at my mom's photo and listened to their favorite songs. This song definitely makes me think about that time, I was only six when her mental illness claimed her life.
💔 I was twelve when my mom died of cancer. Know that you're not alone!
@@RebekahBloom Yeah my uncle just died of cancer last week and I didn't get the chance to say goodbye and before him my grandmother from my mom's side who I didn't get to say goodbye to either and before her my grandpa and step grandma from my dad's side. Also only a few years after my mom took her own life my grandma from my dad's side died of brain cancer and she's actually buried right next to my mom. I swear I'm so used to death at this point that I don't even know how I feel that my uncle's dead, I guess I just feel numb.
Beautiful cover, it's very raw and honest, which is the best kind of art 💗
Thank you so much ❤️ that's such a lovely complement!
I know I’m super late but I prefer this over the original x1000 like whenever I wanna listen to the song I just come back to this video 😭 your voice is seriously so soft and pretty
Ugh! Honored! 😭❤️
So beautiful and SOOOO perfect!
I'm realizing I like having a balance of raw/live recordings like this and then more creative production stuff
Love your emotion and your tone. Please, keep making more music!
