Who Heals the Healer
🌿 Who Heals the Healer Verse 1 She lights the candle in the dark Holds the trembling, holds the heart Carries prayers she didn’t make Carries more than she can take She knows the way through shadowed rooms Knows how to midwife broken blooms With steady hands and open eyes She walks where everyone else cries Pre-Chorus She pours the water, she tends the flame But no one asks how much she’s in pain Chorus Who heals the healer when she’s tired and worn? Who holds the one who helps us be born? She carries the weight, she carries the load She walks with us down the hardest roads Circles of love, strangers become kin We’re stitched together skin to skin But even the healer needs to be held Even the light needs help in the well Verse 2 She takes the risk, she holds the line Between the sacred and the wild She feels the stories in her bones She doesn’t get to leave them at home She brings the medicine, brings the prayer Brings her whole heart, everywhere But every time she opens the gate She carries a little more of our weight Pre-Chorus Connection, compassion, the work is real But even the healer has wounds to heal Chorus Who heals the healer when she’s tired and worn? Who holds the one who helps us be born? She carries the weight, she carries the load She walks with us down the hardest roads Circles of love, strangers become kin We’re stitched together skin to skin But even the healer needs to be held Even the light needs help in the well Bridge She is not a savior, she is not the source She is a guide, not the force She opens the door, she lights the way But we must walk it every day Break (spoken or sung, softly) Who heals the healer? We do. Together. Verse 3 In every circle, in every room There’s a healer learning to bloom Not above us, not ahead Just another heart being led She teaches us to trust our hands To learn our bodies, learn to stand To take the medicine inside And become our own guide Final Chorus We heal the healer when we choose to grow When we take the work and carry it home When we stop pretending we are small And remember we’re medicine, all Circles of love, the work goes on Not one, but many, rising strong Honor the healer in you and me That’s how we heal the world, you see Outro Teach them how to heal themselves That is the revolution. That is the revolution.
