Mending Stars

I’ve been the one holding weight
Even when I’m breaking down
Turn the noise into rhythm
Try to find a steady ground
Too many nights in my head
Chasing light through the dark
But I keep my heart open
Even when it falls apart

I don’t need perfect, I just need true
Every scar’s a story, I’m singing to you
If it’s heavy, I’ll carry, I’ll make it through
Cause that’s who I am, yeah, that’s what I do

I’m a fighter and a dreamer
I get lost but I’m a believer
All the pain just makes it clearer
That I’m still here, I’m still here
I’m a builder and a breaker
I love hard, and I’ll remake it
Every fall just makes me braver
I’m still here, I’m still here

Family in the fire
Love I’m learning how to hold
Some days I’m the anchor
Some days I’m the one who folds
But I don’t run from the truth
I just turn it into lines
Sing it loud, sing it raw
Cause it’s the only way to find

I don’t need perfect, I just need real
Every wound reminds me it’s okay to heal
If it hurts, it means that I still can feel
That’s the only way I know what’s real

I’m a fighter and a dreamer
I get lost but I’m a believer
All the pain just makes it clearer
That I’m still here, I’m still here
I’m a builder and a breaker
I love hard, and I’ll remake it
Every fall just makes me braver
I’m still here, I’m still here

I don’t have to hide the cracks
They’re the proof that I come back
I don’t need to be the strongest
Just someone who keeps holding on

I’m a fighter and a dreamer
I get lost but I’m a believer
All the pain just makes it clearer
That I’m still here, I’m still here
I’m a builder and a breaker
I love hard, and I’ll remake it
Every fall just makes me braver
I’m still here, I’m still here

Yeah, I’m still here
For the ones who feel everything
I’m still here
