Verse I’ve been sitting in the corner Wrapped in foil, wrapped in time They laugh before they taste me Feel the doubt before the knife I was made with careful hands In a very quiet life Built to hold what wouldn’t last Built to stay through longer nights Chorus If you knew what I’m made of You might look at me again There’s patience in my sweetness There’s forgiveness in my bend I don’t need you to adore me I don’t need your praise to stay I just hope you taste the reason I was made this way Bridge I was soaked in hope and waiting And a little bit of fear Mixed with fruits you never heard For the fruitcake who aren’t still here I am not a perfect answer I am not light or new I am proof that something broken Still can nourish you Outro So cut me slow and stay awhile I’m more than what you see I’ve been waiting all this time For you to believe in me
