[Verse] I carry your echoes Heavy and deep Your words like thorns They don’t let me sleep But in your shadow I found my flame I love you still Even through the pain [Pre-Chorus 1] It’s not perfect No It’s not clean But love can live where scars have been [Chorus] I love you I do In broken lines Through the cracks The light still shines I love you I do In my own way Even when the skies turned gray [Verse 2] The weight of your eyes It made me strong I sang my truth But you wrote the song Your silence cut Your anger burned Yet I kept the lessons that I learned [Pre-Chorus 2] It’s not easy No It’s not free But love can grow from what we see [Chorus] I love you I do In broken lines Through the cracks The light still shines I love you I do In my own way Even when the skies turned gray [Bridge] I hid the truth to keep the peace But silence never set me free Now I’m gathering what’s left inside Pieces of me you couldn’t see I’ve learned to forgive, but not forget Your love still lingers in my breath [Final Verse] Now I see the child I was Reaching out, misunderstood You thought you were helping me The only way you could I know you tried, I know you cared Even when it hurt to be compared I forgive the past, though I can’t forget I’m learning to love without regret [Final Chorus] I love you I do With trembling hands I mend what’s torn And face the truth once more I love you I do In my own way Even when the skies turned gray
