[Intro] (Ooh) (Ooh) (Ooh) [Verse 1] I thought broken meant failure I was wrong I was bent metal, weathered wood Things that once worked like they should Written off, set aside, labeled lost, classified Every fracture told a tale of weight I carried, times I failed I called it damage, called it waste Never thought it held a place I tried to hide the seams, tried to make it disappear But every scar was speaking even when I wouldn't hear [Chorus, layered vocals or chorus effect] This isn't repair, this is salvage Not erased, but rearranged Every crack let something through that never could have shined Brand new, I'm not restored to what I was I'm shaped into what I could yet become Grace didn't toss me aside, it saw my worth And salvaged my life [Verse 2] Gold poured into shattered lines Light reframed through broken designs What was stained became the view Color stronger where they bruised Every flaw a binding seam, holding weight I couldn't dream Not a fix, not counterfeit Something truer formed from it What I feared would ruin me became the place You stayed I stopped asking to go backward when I saw what loss had made [Chorus, layered vocals or chorus effect] This isn't repair, this is salvage Not erased, but rearranged Every crack let something through that never could have shined Brand new, I'm not restored to what I was I'm shaped into what I could yet become Grace didn't toss me aside, it saw my worth And salvaged my life [Bridge] I wanted clean, I wanted new But You were building something truer Not untouched, but finally whole Strong enough to hold the gold [Chorus, layered vocals or chorus effect] This isn't repair, this is salvage Every piece reclaimed, reframed I carry light because I broke I hold together what once was smoke I'm not the sum of what I lost I'm proof that the journey is worth the cost What I called the end of me became the art That carried my glory I carry light because I broke I hold together what once was smoke I'm not the sum of what I lost I'm proof that the journey is worth the cost What I called the end of me became the art That carried my glory [Outro] (Ooh) (Ooh) (Ooh) I was thrown away, the whole world passed me by I was worth so little in the cosmic design But I was always worth Your time I was thrown away, the whole world passed me by I was worth so little in the cosmic design But I was always worth Your time
