lyrics

I'm a creature of comfort, glad tidings
You're a victim of fear
You're a sullen broken bottle in a sewer grate
I'm a fully intact mirror
I'm that childhood treehouse where you grew up and made love in
You suffer the roots
You're doubtful of the vast and many wonders of existence, well
I offer proof

I offer proof
I offer proof
If you're looking for something that lives outside of truth
I offer proof

I see maybes exist where doubts could subsist
You simply say no
I see hate steal seat from compassion
While you bask in its glow
I live on the stoop smoker's front steps
You're the March snow sliding off the roof
You ponder the validity of real human joy, well
I offer proof

I offer proof
I offer proof
If you're looking for something that lives outside of truth
I offer proof

I offer proof
I offer proof
If you're looking for something that lives outside of truth
I offer proof

You were sinking when you said
"Life's an exercise in dread
Why shouldn't I surrender to the pain?"
I guffawed and shook my head
I made it out the other end
No grimace got me standing here today

I'm a hot mug of tea by a frozen river
You forgot how to skate
I'm a wide toothless grinner sticking tongues out at strangers
While you? You spit in my face
I'm the view from the party, patio pitchin' empties
You're in no pleasant mood
You wonder if you'll ever get back what they've taken
I offer proof

I offer proof
I offer proof
If you're looking for something that lives outside of truth
I offer proof

I offer proof
I offer proof
If you're looking for something that lives outside of truth
I offer proof

If you're looking for something that lives outside of truth
I offer proof
I offer proof
I offer proof
I offer proof
