It's been a hard year 

But I'm climbing out of the rubble 

These lessons are hard 

Healing changes are subtle 

But every day it's 



Less like tearing, more like building 

Less like captive, more like willing 

Less like breakdown, more like surrender 

Less like haunting, more like remember 



And I feel you here 

And you're picking up the pieces 

Forever faithful 

It seemed out of my hands, a bad situation 

But you are able 

And in your hands the pain and hurt 

Look less like scars and more like 

Character 



Less like a prison, more like my room 

It's less like a casket, more like a womb 

Less like dying, more like transcending 

Less like fear, less like an ending 



And I feel you here 

And you're picking up the pieces 

Forever faithful 

It seemed out of my hands, a bad situation 

But you are able 

And in your hands the pain and hurt 

Look less like scars 



Just a little while ago 

I couldn't feel the power or the hope 

I couldn't cope, I couldn't feel a thing 

Just a little while back 

I was desperate, broken, laid out, hoping 

You would come 



And I need you 

And I want you here 

And I feel you 



And I know you're here 

And you're picking up the pieces 

Forever faithful 

It seemed out of my hands, a bad, bad situation 

But you are able 



And in your hands the pain and hurt 

Look less like scars (x3) 



And more like
