[Verse 1] You’re up again until dawn Leaves have settled on the windowsill The phone stays silent Everything seems To have frozen halfway The tea in your mug has gone cold and clear The framed photo catches your eye You whispered, "It’s not fair" And didn't even believe yourself [Chorus] Life goes on Even if your heart is in pieces The calendar turns Even if there’s pain on your lips You’ll be surprised By the miracles in your own steps Life goes on Look It’s in your hands (hey) [Verse 2] A familiar coffee shop on the corner The same barista The same line "How are you?" — you just nod Hiding a laugh behind a sip of milk On the way, the wind—boldly, Like a child— Snaps your old scarf off your shoulder And suddenly, on the stairs, you realize This is your first easy breath [Chorus] Life goes on Even if your heart is in pieces The calendar turns Even if there’s pain on your lips You’ll be surprised By the miracles in your own steps Life goes on Look It’s in your hands (oh-oh) [Bridge] Yes It was hard But so what? Every scar is a breath saying, "I’m alive" You aren't the same person Who—if a stranger asked your name yesterday— Would have struggled to remember it [Chorus] Life goes on Even if your heart is in pieces The calendar turns Even if there’s pain on your lips You’ll smile again Seeing the light in the city windows Life goes on Look It’s in your hands (yeah-yeah)
