[Verse 1] I came in with my hands full Of broken vows and dust Every stone I carried Turned my heart to rust I stood at the edge of the water With my shadow in my face And the past kept calling From its cold locked place [Pre-Chorus] But I hear a voice in the current Soft and steady, near Lay it down, lay it down now Let the river clear [Chorus] Tears open the door Tears open the door I forgive what broke me I let it go, let it go Tears open the door Tears open the door Old skin sinks beneath me And I rise up whole [Verse 2] I was a prisoner of memory In a room without the sun With every regret like a chain link Tied tight around my tongue Then the water touched my chest And the fear began to fall What I buried in the silence Could not live beyond the call [Pre-Chorus] So I breathe into the falling Let the grief come clean If I break at the surface There is life underneath [Chorus] Tears open the door Tears open the door I forgive what broke me I let it go, let it go Tears open the door Tears open the door Old skin sinks beneath me And I rise up whole [Bridge] Bury the name I wore Bury the weight I knew Take the key from my clenched fist Wash me through and through If I was made in sorrow Make me clean in flame and rain Let the final thing I keep be The courage to begin again [Final Chorus] Tears open the door Tears open the door I forgive what broke me I let it go, let it go Tears open the door Tears open the door Born from the water I rise up whole
