Pieces of Me

V5

[Verse 1 – emotional, scared] I’ve been holding it together with a smile I don’t feel Telling everyone I’m fine, but knowing it's not real Every step feels heavier than the last I keep tripping over memories of my past [harder] I tried fixing the cracks all on my own But the harder I tried, the more they showed Now I’m here with nothing to prove Just a heart that’s tired, weak and bruised [Pre-Chorus – emotional build] I’ve been dying in silence Afraid You wouldn’t stay Afraid you would leave me If I showed you my shame [Chorus – emotional, explosive, tragic] I’m falling apart Breaking into pieces of me Every shard of my heart Scattered where I can’t see But You didn’t turn away When I was on my knees You’re still reaching for the pieces The pieces of me [Verse 2 – deeper, confessional] I’ve been wearing the shame like it’s my name Every failure whispering that I’m the same I built these walls so no one could see How broken I really am underneath [longing, desperate vocals] I kept running from mercy With my fists clenched tight But You never stopped chasing Me into the night [Pre-Chorus – stronger] I thought I was too far gone But You were there all along [Chorus – bigger, fuller instrumentation] I’m falling apart Breaking into pieces of me Every tear and every scar Feels like all I’ll ever be But You don’t turn away You meet me in the debris You’re still reaching for the pieces The pieces of me [Bridge – turning point, hope rising] You see beauty where I see regret You see a purpose in the mess You don’t need me whole to start You just need my broken heart You pick up what I let fall You make something from it all Every piece, every part Is safe inside Your arms [Final Chorus – hopeful, victorious] I was falling apart But You came running to me You took the broken shards And made a mosaic of me I’m not who I was I’m finally free You took the pieces You took the pieces of me [Outro – soft, worshipful] I’m not broken beyond repair I’m held together by Your care In Your hands, I finally see You made something beautiful out of me
