[Verse 1]
Used to flinch at every mirror
Old scars hiding in my smile
Kept my heart inside a corner
Said
“maybe love’s not mine this time”
Friday nights with all the curtains drawn
Talking circles with my doubts
I was learning how to breathe again
Didn’t know you’d be the sound
[Pre-Chorus]
Then you laughed at all the pieces
Didn’t try to make me new
You just traced the broken edges
Like they’re proof I made it through
[Chorus]
I was made for you
Every crack
Every bloom
Every burned-out June
All the tears I thought were wasted
Turned to light when my hands found you
I was made for you
Not too much
Never less
Finally something true
All the wrong turns
All the waiting
Every road I took
I was made for you
[Verse 2]
You don’t fix the way I’m shaking
You just hold me while it fades
Tell me I’m not hard to handle
I’m the storm you’d choose each day
I don’t hide the darkest chapters
Read them out loud in your car
You just kiss the pauses in between
Say you love my stubborn heart
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m not begging to be chosen
I’m not shrinking to fit through
Standing taller in my own skin
‘Cause it feels like home with you
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I thought I was too much
Too loud
Too soft
Too bruised
Too rough
But you look at me and swear
“This is everything I want”
Now I’m dancing in the daylight
With the hurt behind my eyes
Not erased
Just held so gently
While it finally turns to light [crescendo]
[Chorus]
