[Verse 1] I used to circle every flaw Red pen on my own heart Counting all the ways I'm late To some invisible start But these bruises took their time So the mending will too I'm learning how to hold Every shaking part of you [Verse 2] Some days I make the bed Some days I barely move Both of them are honest Both of them are proof That growing out of old pain Isn't straight Isn't clean It's coffee at noon And forgiving what that means [Chorus] I'll be soft with myself Like talking to a child Hands open Eyes kind When my thoughts run wild I don't have to hurry I don't have to hide I can stumble I can rest And still be on my side [Bridge] What if every tear was welcome What if every pause was praise What if healing isn't changing Just learning I was safe (oh, I'm safe now) I can love the parts still cracking I can bless the slow repair I don't need to be "all better" To deserve a little care [Chorus] I'll be soft with myself Like talking to a child Hands open Eyes kind When my fears run wild I don't have to hurry I don't have to try I am worthy Even when All I do is All I do is All I do is try
