[Verse 1] Part of healing is the hurt There's beauty in everything Part of memories are the making With the feeling lingering [Chorus] Well I hear people say, “You gotta love the pain.” But I’d be lying if I said “I’m not terrified, of living the life I desire.” And it’s mine for the taking ‘Cause there’s beauty in the breaking [Verse 2] There’s beauty in pretending (I love this line - lyrics taken from my little girl talking in the background while I was writing this song. I pulled them out of the 2019 recording in 2026 when I was going back to old songs trying to finish them.) You gotta start to have an end There’s beauty in the making You gotta be made whole to be broken [Chorus] Well I hear people say, “You gotta love the pain.” But I’d be lying if I said “I’m not terrified, of living the life I desire.” And it’s mine for the taking ‘Cause there’s beauty in the breaking [Bridge] When we start out the day Renewed by grace I see one big difference ce Suffering leads to gratitude [Chorus] Well I hear people say, “You gotta love the pain.” But I’d be lying if I said “I’m not terrified, of living the life I desire.” And it’s mine for the taking ‘Cause there’s beauty in the breaking [Outro]
