I hold the earth in my hand
And shower her with love
I wrap her in a blanket of protection
Trying to keep her safe from so much destruction
Each day everywhere I turn
Something new pulls my attention
I don’t want to look over there
My heart is broken enough
Shattered into thousands of little pieces
One for each of the displaced hurting souls
There’s no way to ever put that back together again
When the pieces continue to be broken smaller
So I wrap the earth up in my arms
Holding her close and giving her all the love
Filling up every corner where there’s hurt
Trying to shine the light and fix it
Feeling helpless with so much broken
But I can offer love
It’s all I can do right now
It’s all I have to give
