Other Hearts Beat - Fractures

Stick and stones will cut to the bone
Leave you out in the cold
Gasoline words straight from the teeth
Will get you down to your knees
Don't be discouraged, they can't keep you down
When they lie to your face
All that you are and all that you'll be
It starts from this place

Everything falls
Everything breaks
Everything was built to shatter
You may hurt
You may bleed
I swear that you still matter
Everything falls
Everything breaks
But we can heal from the fractures
You're more than the pain
You're more than they say
I swear that you still matter

Time will go, it ebbs and it flows
Leave you feeling old
Cracks in the ground by emptiness bound
With new ones yet to be found
But we will return, our spirits will yield
A fruit that we couldn't perceive
Our memories are scarred but they're healed
And no one can't take that away

Everything falls
Everything breaks
Everything was built to shatter
You may hurt
You may bleed
I swear that you still matter
Everything falls
Everything breaks
But we can heal from the fractures
You're more than the pain
You're more than they say
I swear that you still matter

I was listening
To encouraging words they said
I couldn't believe
The way that it read
Like breathing in
Someone else's breath
It didn't help
Cause they don't know what they meant
I was listening
But it couldn't help me now
These were the same words
That I was handing out
Was it the same for them
When I just wanted to help?
Cause what I need right now
Is someone to listen when something goes wrong in my head
And I don't want to hear what you'll say to make me think you care

I want to know you care

At my darkest, I feel isolated
My mind plays tricks, and I take the bait
But healing's essential and part of the growing
I'd rather the pastures are of my own sewing
Your pain and your heartache are valid and true
But the snares that surround, no, they can't define you
There is suffering, bleeding, hurting to shatter
Don't listen when they say that you don't matter
(I swear that you still matter)

Everything falls
Everything breaks
Everything was built to shatter
You may hurt
You may bleed
I swear that you still matter
Everything falls
Everything breaks
But we can heal from the fractures
You're more than the pain
You're more than they say
I swear that you still matter
