He's just looking through the cracks

To watch his family eat

Still waiting on a miracle

To make his life complete

.

She's just looking through the cracks

To watch her family shine

Still wondering, what else can she do

To join them in that line

.

He keeps looking through the cracks

For home he cannot go

"Under the surface, here I'll hide

"With secrets none can know"

.

She keeps looking through the cracks

Far back where none can see

"For all of you are miracles

"Just all of you but me"

.

Looking always through the cracks

And patching what he can

"I'm in my family, so I'm fine

"To be the fallen man"

.

Looking always through the cracks

She searches shattered glass

"If we can't talk about this pain,

"It never will be past"

.

They look bewildered through the cracks

Of glory wracked by night

They'll push through pain like two cocoons

Until they find the light...

.

Chasing shadows through the dark

To hear the unheard cries

They're both just looking through the cracks

To find each other's eyes
