The opening (during)

(Verse 1)

There was a map beneath my skin

Drawn in places I couldn’t see

Every silence held a memory

Every shadow breathing me

I felt it stir like distant thunder

In the marrow, in the bone

Something ancient waking slowly

Saying “you are not alone”

(Pre-Chorus)

And oh, the fear began to loosen

Like a knot undone by light

Every tear became a doorway

Every tremor felt like flight

(Chorus)

I’m opening, I’m opening

Like the sky after the rain

Every hidden constellation

Spelling beauty from the pain

I’m unfolding, I’m unfolding

There’s a fire in my chest

Not to burn me into nothing

But to show me I am blessed

(Verse 2)

There were echoes in my body

Old as time and twice as deep

I had buried them in stillness

I had sung myself to sleep

But the rhythm found me breathing

In the spaces I let go

Now the current’s running through me

Like a truth I’ve come to know

(Pre-Chorus)

Every cell is softly listening

Every scar is turning gold

I can feel the past releasing

I don’t have to carry old

(Chorus)

I’m opening, I’m opening

Like the sky after the rain

Every hidden constellation

Spelling beauty from the pain

I’m unfolding, I’m unfolding

There’s a fire in my chest

Not to burn me into nothing

But to show me I am blessed

(Bridge)

If you hear me in the distance

If these notes reach through your night

Let them find the place that’s hurting

Let them fill it up with light

You are more than what you’ve carried

You are more than what has been

There’s a doorway in your breathing

There’s a world beneath your skin

(Outro)

So I sing it into being

Every breath, a sacred art

There is wonder in the healing

There is music in the heart
