​If things hadn’t happened
perfectly
like they had
well, you know
I’d be somewhere else
someone else
Beyond black matter
 
I’d be the center of
a different world
thrust through the void
I’d have developed
new skills
gotten to know
different kinds of people
 
If things hadn’t happened
the way they had happened
perfectly
like they had
well, you know,
I’m glad that they had
worked out in the end
 
I cannot confirm
my life would be better
or worse
but in the grace of something
I’m sometimes grateful that
this is the place
where I ended up
 
If things continue to happen
perfectly
well, you know
I’ll always be saved
I’ll be okay
because that’s the only way
for things to happen to me
