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
