"Poem Song" lyrics

Maybe it's simple
Maybe it's quiet
Maybe your soft self acceptance
Is a rebellious riot

Maybe it's time
Who'll one day be your friend
Maybe it's temperance
Who'll love you most in the end

Maybe your heartbreak
Doesn't mean that it's over
Maybe your empty bottle
Doesn't mean you need to get sober

Maybe one day you will listen
To the small voice in your head
Not the one that berates you
But the one who calls you friend

Maybe you'll go to a movie
Maybe you'll go to a show
And maybe your resurgence
Is the greatest triumph that you'll know

Maybe you'll be special
Even just in your own eyes
And maybe when you're dying
Is when you'll feel most alive

Broken isn't over
And empty's not alone
Breaking is for people
Who want to meet their soul

Maybe you'll be different
Even just this time around
And maybe you'll feel better
Maybe you'll be found

Maybe it's all over
Maybe it ended long ago
Maybe the seconds that you're counting
Are the greatest living show

Maybe your voice is playing
In some far off galaxy
Oh my God, you are spectacular
I wish that you could see

Maybe it's alright
That you didn't pass the test
That you're some unusual creature
Some mangled beast at best

But maybe you are perfect
And the earth loves you still
Maybe you're her greatest achievement
Her greatest attraction on the bill
