I've filed my questions by meaning
_____
And across the folder's spine it says who I'm not
_____
I've pasted in all the old photos
_____
By time and face, relevant or not
_____
I've cleaned up all the old stuff
_____
And swept all worries under the carpet
_____
And I've polished the scratches on my soul
_____
So my reflection shows me that I'm alive
_____
Feels so good to see you again
_____
Come on in, you don't have to stand outside
_____
We fling all the windows open
_____
Sun in and routine out
_____
Just feel at home
_____
I've patched all the holes in my pockets
_____
And poured out all the half-full, half-empty glasses
_____
Filled them to the top with luck
_____
Polished my crown and straightened it again
_____
Locked my doubts in the closet
_____
Screwed hope tight
_____
I've really shaken out my heart
_____
And freed it from all the stains and dust
_____
Feels so good to see you again
_____
Come on in, you don't have to stand outside
_____
We fling all the windows open
_____
Sun in and routine out
_____
Just feel at home
_____
And the other day I rearranged
_____
Turned everything to rubble and ashes again
_____
Some scratches you can never get out
_____
Sorry, that can happen when you live
_____
Feels so good to see you again
_____
Come on in, you don't have to stand outside
_____
We fling all the windows open
_____
Sun in and routine out
_____
Just feel at home
