I’m standing next to a grain of salt
My two shoes moving back and forth
The music losing the beat to my feet
I’m thinking through more words and lines
Then this song can contrive
I’m just feeling great in a state of one
Plus one to make two only works if it’s right
If it makes light of life when in vain despite the rain
One makes sense attached to these things
Yeah I’m intentionally missing this boat to catch the plane
The lord hands me life in the palm of my hand
I’m making less sense to myself
And more sense to the king, he knows the man I have not found
These things I’m no longer bound to and yeah he becomes the song’s sound
He sat there at the bottom of the sea with me his arms wrapped around
I should have been left to drown, the dusk had just begun
You brought me out of the sea, to stand on land to watch the sunrise ounce more
I’m here just to be; I stare at my hand, the sun still rising in the distance
Take my heart towards the path of most resistance, so that I may see my hearts desire
So I may exercise the self-control you armed me with
So I may walk this wire the things we say travel along
Standing on top of the useless sound so strong
Of lost voice and lost choice, I would rather make in your light
In your light
My mind body and soul cries out let me see your light
I’m standing next to a grain of salt
I’m intentionally missing the boat to catch the plane
-Aaron Johnson
