**[Intro]** Wait... Was I just smiling? **[Verse 1]** Sunlight falling through the windshield, Coffee sitting in my hand. Radio plays some stupid old song, And somehow I still know every word. Windows down along the highway, Cold air rushing through the car. For three whole minutes I forgot That I was ever falling apart. **[Pre-Chorus]** And maybe healing Doesn't kick the door down. Maybe it slips in quietly When you're not looking around. **[Chorus]** There's light through the cracks now, Coming through the places where I broke. Light through the cracks now, And for once I don't wanna close them. Let it in, Let it burn, Maybe there's still something left to learn. I thought the broken parts were black. Now there's light Coming through the cracks. **[Drop]** Let it in! Oh-oh-oh! Let it in! I can feel it on my skin! Light! Light! Coming through the cracks tonight! **[Verse 2]** Met some friends I kept avoiding, Said I'd stay an hour or two. Then somebody said something stupid, And I laughed until my face hurt too. Nobody asked me if I'm better. Nobody tried to fix my life. We ordered way too much for dinner And stayed talking half the night. **[Pre-Chorus]** And on the way home I caught myself singing. Not because I had to. Because I fucking felt like singing. **[Chorus]** There's light through the cracks now, Coming through the places where I broke. Light through the cracks now, And for once I don't wanna close them. Let it in, Let it burn, Maybe there's still something left to learn. I thought the broken parts were black. Now there's light Coming through the cracks. **[Break]** A good song. A stupid joke. Cold beer. Warm sun. A message from an old friend: “Hey, you good?” And for the first time... Yeah. I think I am. **[Build]** Little by little! Day by day! Not everything beautiful Has gone away! Little by little! Let it back! Let the fucking light Through every crack! **[Drop]** LIGHT! Let it hit me! LIGHT! Let the whole world in! Hands high! Eyes wide! I forgot how good it feels to be alive! **[Bridge]** I kept waiting for some miracle To put me back together. But maybe I don't need to be The person I remember. Maybe cracks aren't just the places Where everything fell apart. Maybe they're the open windows That let daylight reach the heart. **[Final Chorus]** THERE'S LIGHT THROUGH THE CRACKS NOW, Golden through the places where I broke. LIGHT THROUGH THE CRACKS NOW, And I never wanna close them anymore. Let it in! Let it burn! Look at everything I thought I'd lost return. I thought my broken parts were black... But look at that. There's light Coming through the cracks. **[Final Drop]** LIGHT! Oh-oh-oh! LIGHT! Let the whole damn world come in! Light! Light! I'm coming back to life tonight! **[Outro]** Tomorrow might hurt again. That's okay. Today was good.
