Glass Hearts

Everyone who looks at us from the outside
Thinks we're so strong, unshaken walls
But that’s not who we are inside
We’re not made of stone at all

I believed for so long that strength
Meant hiding every crack and flaw
Building walls around my feelings
Not to cry, not to feel, not to fall

I ran for years from my own pain
From the scars I carry deep within
I thought showing them would make me weak
But now I know, that’s where strength begins

You showed me it’s not weakness to feel
That glass hearts can break and still heal
They shatter, then shine even brighter
Glass hearts, glass hearts

I'm not afraid to feel anymore
To break and fall apart again
‘Cause I’ve learned that life is made of this
To feel it all, to feel the pain

Even when it tears us open
It’s how we know we’re still alive
I'm not afraid to live, to feel
And if this glass heart breaks
It will survive

You showed me it’s not weakness to feel
That glass hearts can break and still heal
They shatter, then shine even brighter
Glass hearts, glass hearts
