Our fractured hearts
The fractioned parts
All making us a whole
The holes in us that hold us up
A backward blanket to unfold
The fabric lost
As dust to dust
Frays us each a little more
Under that cosmic brush that dust was crushed
I saw a new star being born
We're all together a patchwork quilt
Stitched by the love we know
No material to make it real
But it all feels real enough
We've all got tears and doubtful fears
Just saltwater and ghost
Our fractured hearts
The fractioned parts
Make us all part of the whole
A lightning flash
A lightbulb splash
The sky around it dull
The darkest parts
The unlit chart
Unrecognizable
But, I'd know that smile anywhere
The way it could warm up the cold
Just picturing his welcoming
Bringing gold thread of his own
We're all together a patchwork quilt
Stitched by the love we know
No material to make it real
But it all feels real enough
We've all got tears and doubtful fears
Just saltwater and ghost
Our fractured hearts
The fractioned parts
Make us all part of the whole
