[00:00.76]I am sad and grateful [00:02.31]I am lonely and rejoicing [00:04.24]I ring the bells alone [00:06.35]I ring the bells for you [00:08.53]Forgive me the impermanence of my joy [00:11.26]And the permanence of my joy [00:13.14]I am present in my truth [00:14.48] [00:15.10]Though you were right I lost myself [00:16.63] [00:17.60]I abide in my discomfort [00:19.97]And in everything you gave me [00:21.46] [00:22.07]I can try to hide from suffering [00:23.73] [00:24.28]But I know that won't save me [00:26.23]I must count it all as joy [00:27.94] [00:29.29]I must let love be love in me [00:32.02] [00:40.60]I can be strong I can be kind [00:42.88]I can be good to myself and anyone who lets me [00:45.68]Now I am simple I am alone [00:48.33]Like a pale flower floating on the surface [00:50.61]Of the wide sea the world drives [00:52.67]Between all of our hearts [00:53.93]The one you must navigate in order to love [00:56.03] [00:56.59]In trying to swim there [00:57.67]But refusing to let go [00:59.31]We weighed each other down [01:00.51]And eventually we drowned [01:01.74]We can speak the words of women and angels [01:04.39]But without real love it's just sad noise [01:06.91]I can open my heart and let everything out [01:09.25]But that won't save me [01:10.45]I'll just be empty [01:11.67]I am raw and awed and frightened [01:13.96]In the presence of my truth [01:15.30] [01:16.45]I am sitting with my fear [01:17.68] [01:18.86]I am reverent in its light [01:20.25] [01:21.28]I am starting where I am [01:22.51] [01:23.52]I move forward on my own [01:25.02] [01:26.12]And I ring the bells alone [01:27.60] [01:28.53]But with only you in mind
