(hmmmmm) Hey there kid, looking down at your worn-out shoes
Wondering how much more you're gonna have to lose
I see the quiet fear hiding in your eyes
Underneath those heavy, cloud-filled skies
I know it hurts right now,
feels like you're all alone
But every jagged rock is paving stepping stones (ahhhh)
Every single scar is gonna turn to gold
A deeper story waiting to be told
Every tear you cry in the dark of night
Is watering the garden that will find the light
(it's gonna be alright)
I wish that I could spare you from the coming storm
But the coldest winters make the hearth feel warm
You're learning how to bend
so that you do not break
There is a stronger man inside of this heartache
Every single scar is gonna turn to gold
A deeper story waiting to be told
Every tear you cry in the dark of night
Is watering the garden that will find the light
(yeah, find the light!)
Look at me now,
we made it through the cold (we made it,
kid)
