Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Found an old shirt in the backseat
Coffee stain from when I used to rush
Always running from the mirror
Scared of looking close enough
I remember counting every fault
Like they were beads on a string
Living small inside my own head
Afraid of what tomorrow would bring
[Chorus]
I was busy being broken
Now I’m learning how to be
Every scar is just a story
Framed in gold inside of me
I’m done asking for permission
Just to breathe
Just to believe
If you wanna know my future
It starts with me loving me
[Verse 2]
Used to chase people who dimmed me
Begging them to call me bright
Standing last in every lineup
Letting everyone decide
Now I write my name in big ink
On the pages that I own
Every step I take is awkward
Every step is still my own
[Chorus]
I was busy being broken
Now I’m learning how to be
Every scar is just a story
Framed in gold inside of me
I’m done asking for permission
Just to breathe
Just to believe
If you wanna know my future
It starts with me loving me
[Bridge]
I don’t need a perfect ending (hey!)
To be proud of where I’ve been
All the nights I spent in pieces
Built the backbone in my skin
So here’s to every version
That I used to try to hide
I carry them like candles
Lighting up the road ahead tonight
[Chorus]
I was busy being broken
Now I’m learning how to be
Every scar is just a story
Framed in gold inside of me
I’m done asking for permission
Just to breathe
Just to believe
If you wanna know my future
Watch me as I choose to be
Yeah
The rest of my forever
Starts with me loving me (oh yeah)
