[Verse 1]
In the stillness
I heard the wings of a dove
She landed right on the crack
Between what was and what will be
I stood there too
Dust on my shoes
Old keys in my hand
I've seen her eyes before
Like a story that already knows the end
[Chorus]
"It's all right
" she said
"metal chill
Let the rust on your heart stay still
You don’t have to fix every broken thing you see
You’re standing in between
But you’re free"
"It's all right
" she said
“metal chill
You can lay down every jagged will
You don’t have to burn just to feel you’re real
Just breathe
Just be
Metal chill"
[Verse 2]
Her shadow crossed
Every version of me on the floor
Young and afraid
Older and tired
All of them reaching for more
She tilted her head
Feathers catching some invisible light
"You know me
" she smiled
"you always did"
And the room stopped putting up a fight
[Chorus]
"It's all right
" she said
"metal chill
Let the rust on your heart stay still
You don’t have to fix every broken thing you see
You’re standing in between
But you’re free"
"It's all right
" she said
“metal chill
You can lay down every jagged will
You don’t have to burn just to feel you’re real
Just breathe
Just be
Metal chill"
[Bridge]
I asked
"Will I make it through this side?"
She laughed low
"You already survived"
Every crack
Every seam in you
Is a door I can fly you through
[Chorus]
"It's all right
" she said
"metal chill
Let the rust on your heart stay still
You don’t have to fix every broken thing you see
You’re standing in between
But you’re free"
"It's all right
" she said
“metal chill
You can lay down every jagged will
You don’t have to burn just to feel you’re real
Just breathe
Just be
Metal chill"
