[Verse 1] I wake up quiet With the same old weight But I leave it by the door Let the morning wait My hands stop shaking When I unclench tight Little by little I step into the light [Pre-Chorus] I’m learning how to breathe When the world won’t slow I let the river take it I let the river go [Chorus] Still water, carry me Still water, set me free I am not the storm I am the space between Still water, stay with me Still water, make me clean I found my heart at last When I learned to be still [Verse 2] I used to chase it In a hundred ways Tried to build a home Out of brighter days Now I hear the silence Like a steady friend It says, “come closer” And I let it in [Pre-Chorus] I’m learning how to breathe When the world won’t slow I let the river take it I let the river go [Chorus] Still water, carry me Still water, set me free I am not the storm I am the space between Still water, stay with me Still water, make me clean I found my heart at last When I learned to be still [Bridge] No more fighting my own name No more running from the rain I can let the ache move through And come back whole again [Final Chorus] Still water, carry me Still water, set me free I am not the storm I am the space between Still water, stay with me Still water, make me clean I found my heart at last When I learned to be still
