Soft Like Letting Go

It doesn't have to hurt

I used to think that healing
Had to feel like breaking bones
Like something had to shatter
Before I could be whole

But you showed me a quiet way
A slower kind of truth
Where nothing needs to fall apart
To make a better you

Soft like letting go
Like snow that doesn't show
Where it falls or where it goes
Soft like letting go

Soft like letting go
Like something you don't hold
But somehow you still know
Soft like letting go

There's a peace I didn't notice
In the spaces in between
Not every kind of freedom
Needs to feel extreme

Soft like letting go
Like snow that doesn't show
Where it falls or where it goes
Soft like letting go

Soft like letting go
Like something you don't hold
But somehow you still know
Soft like letting go

Soft like letting go

Soft like letting go
Not fast, not even slow
Just something you outgrow
Soft like letting go

It doesn't have to hurt
It can just, fade
