Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] [Slow, melancholic piano. Sound of a deep exhale.] (Spoken, tired) Lord, I'm tired. But I gotta keep going. [Verse 1] Clock in at seven, put the scrubs on tight. Helping everybody else fight their fight. I’m a certified healer, hands of grace. But nobody sees the tears on my own face. I hold the patients, I calm their fear. But inside my chest, the fog is severe. I’m pouring out water from a cup that’s dry. Smiling at the world... while I want to cry. [Chorus] [Vocals swell. Powerful and pleading.] Who heals the HEALER when she’s broken down? Who lifts her head when she can’t see the crown? I’m running on empty, Lord, fill me up. I’m trapped in the darkness, yeah, I’m stuck. Scrubs and scriptures, that’s all I got. Giving everything... whether I have it or not. [Hook] [Choir joins in. Repetitive Chant.] Heal the Healer! (Lord, I need You!) Heal the Healer! (Pull me through!) Scrubs and Scriptures! (That's all I got!) Don't let me fall apart! [Verse 2] [Music stays low and intimate.] Get home to the boys, make sure they eat. Then I drag my heavy body to the study seat. Books open wide, Bachelor’s on the line. But my brain is foggy, losing track of time. I stare at the screen, words blur to gray. Depression is a thief, stealing my day. I want to finish... I want that degree. But this heavy cloud is crushing me. [Chorus] Who heals the HEALER when she’s broken down? Who lifts her head when she can’t see the crown? I’m running on empty, Lord, fill me up. I’m trapped in the darkness, yeah, I’m stuck. Scrubs and scriptures, that’s all I got. [Hook] [Choir joins in. High Energy.] Heal the Healer! (Lord, I need You!) Heal the Healer! (Pull me through!) Scrubs and Scriptures! (That's all I got!) Don't let me fall apart! [Bridge] [Organ kicks in. Building to a climax.] They say "Physician, heal thyself." But I put my own heart on the shelf! I need a breakthrough! I need a light! I need the strength to finish this fight! I’m trapped! (Lord break the chains!) I’m tired! (Wash away the stains!) I just want to graduate! I just want to breathe! [Guitar Solo] [Soulful, crying blues guitar solo] [Final Chorus] Who heals the HEALER when she’s broken down? (Won't You heal me?) Who lifts her head when she can’t see the crown? I’m running on empty, Lord, fill me up. Scrubs and scriptures. [Outro] Heal the healer. (Spoken) Amen.
