[Verse 1]
Even when it’s messy
Words all out of place
Heart still spelling out the truth
Written on my face
I get tangled in my doubting
Trip over my pride
But there’s a quiet voice
Burning deep inside
[Chorus]
Even when it’s this
It’s truly me
I know there’s something shining in the light
I believe in my source
My creator
Holding me together through the night
I’ll keep praying
I’ll keep believing
Through every wrong
Through every right
Even when it’s this
It’s truly me
You keep me shining in the light
[Verse 2]
Every scar a story
Ink across my skin
Days I almost gave it up
Nights I let you in
You remind me I’m a daughter
Not a lost mistake
Every broken piece of me
You know what to make
[Chorus]
Even when it’s this
It’s truly me
I know there’s something shining in the light
I believe in my source
My creator
Holding me together through the night
I’ll keep praying
I’ll keep believing
Through every wrong
Through every right
Even when it’s this
It’s truly me
You keep me shining in the light
[Bridge]
I fall down
You find me (hey!)
I cry out
You’re near
Turn my fear to singing
Turn my shame to cheer
I’m not who I was then
I’m not who I’ll be
But your love in the middle
Is setting me free
[Chorus]
Even when it’s this
It’s truly me
I know there’s something shining in the light
I believe in my source
My creator
Holding me together through the night
I’ll keep praying
I’ll keep believing
Through every wrong
Through every right
Even when it’s this
It’s truly me
You keep me shining in the light
