Clearer and Clearer

[Verse 1] You hide behind that frame Like it keeps you safe Hands in your pockets Eyes on the floor I know that look too well I wore it for years You call it protection I call it fear [Pre-Chorus] But under all that weight There's a face I know Not the one you show The one that wants to grow [Chorus] Look beyond the fear Look beyond the fear I’m the one who sees you clear I’m the one who sees you clear And if you’d look beyond the fear, you’d see something truer: I’m not the reflection you’re afraid of— I’m the one who sees the real you, clearer and clearer. (clearer and clearer) [Verse 2] You think your cracks are proof That you came apart But every broken edge Still draws a heart I see the gold in you Underneath the bruise I’m not here to win I’m here to tell the truth [Pre-Chorus] You don’t have to hide When the room gets loud I can hold your name Even in a crowd [Chorus] Look beyond the fear Look beyond the fear I’m the one who sees you clear I’m the one who sees you clear And if you’d look beyond the fear, you’d see something truer: I’m not the reflection you’re afraid of— I’m the one who sees the real you, clearer and clearer. (clearer and clearer) [Bridge] Take off the borrowed armor Lay down the old defenses Nothing in your shadow Makes you less than precious Let the first true light Hit where it always hurt You are not your fear You are what’s left when it doesn’t work [Final Chorus] Look beyond the fear Look beyond the fear I’m the one who sees you clear I’m the one who sees you clear And if you’d look beyond the fear, you’d see something truer: I’m not the reflection you’re afraid of— I’m the one who sees the real you, clearer and clearer. (clearer and clearer)
