[Verse 1] [Key of A Major, 3/4 Time Signature] You wore that armor like a name Kept your heart behind the frame Every scar said “stay away” Every night you split the day You learned to flinch before the touch Built your walls a little much But the door is still in sight And it’s begging for the light [Pre-Chorus] Breathe in slow Let it go What you fear Can’t run this show [Chorus] [Key of B Minor, Time Signature of 2/5] Don’t let fear hold you back Don’t let hate hold you back Open up, come back to love Open up, come back to love Don’t let fear hold you back Don’t let hate hold you back Hands open wide Step back to love [Verse 2] [Key of A Major, 3/4 Time Signature] There’s a voice that says you’re small Says you’re built to miss the call Says the bridge is made of flame Says you’ll only know the pain But I’ve seen the better truth In the break, in the bruise When you reach before you judge That’s when mercy starts to bud [Pre-Chorus] Breathe in slow Let it go What you fear Can’t run this show [Chorus] [Key of B Minor, Time Signature of 2/5] Don’t let fear hold you back Don’t let hate hold you back Open up, come back to love Open up, come back to love Don’t let fear hold you back Don’t let hate hold you back Hands open wide Step back to love [Bridge] [C sharp minor, 4/4 disco beat] If your hands are shaking, still If your chest is all uphill Take the first step anyway There’s a softer road to take We can learn a better way We can leave the old decay Bit by bit, heart by heart We don’t have to fall apart [Final Chorus] [Key of B Minor, Time Signature of 2/5] Don’t let fear hold you back Don’t let hate hold you back Open up, come back to love Open up, come back to love Don’t let fear hold you back Don’t let hate hold you back Hands open wide Step back to love
