On the Surface Lyrics by Jaimee Harris

Boomerang Town

2023

[Verse 1]
The only reason I am here is 'cause to us all he made it clear
He'd like for me to sit here at your table
For other guests you poured the wine
You got to me in your sweet time
When you finally found me fit and able
If he were here he'd pour my drink
Set it down before he'd even think
To take a sip to cure his own thirst
To sit here with your smiles fake
Or stand outsidе with swallowed hate
Well I havе not decided which is worse
[Chorus]
Are you free or are you hiding
From the things you don't agree with or believe in?
Skim the text, find the lines that feed your purpose
It's so easy to love your brother on the surface
[Verse 2]
I know how quickly things can change
They'll turn their backs, curse your name
For situations seeming predetermined
And if your footing can't be found
They'll shout at you to turn around
Meaning well, but clearly lacking understanding
It's true, it wasn't long ago
I traveled down a crooked road
That ended in explosions, consequences
I fought the bottle with the sword
But won the battle with the Lord
A power that believes in second chances
[Chorus]
Are you free or are you hiding
From the things you don't agree with or believe in?
Skim the text, find the lines that feed your purpose
It's so easy to love your brother on the surface
[Verse 3]
The only reason we are here is 'cause the spirit made it clear
That love is not reserved just for our own kind
It travels over many shores
Through rivers, canyons, prison doors
And I believe it travels all the time
