about

A down-tempo evocative track, about how great it feels to be unconditionally loved and accepted for who you are.

lyrics

You trace my scars with your fingers
You don’t see unsightly twisted ugliness
But something as much a part of me
As the beautiful curve of my lip
You see me for who and what I am
You know it all and still accept
Without trying to twist me or cut me or mould me
Into a more suitable fit

When you speak - The light of compassion
and acceptance -Shines through your words
And I still find it hard to believe
Anytime I need
Validation and reassurance
Or when it really hurts - You always give your time to me.

You don’t mind my dark at all - You hold it like no one could
I’m not used to not having to hide - The face of my demons
I don’t ever feel I wear you out
Or outstay my welcome with you
I know you don’t keep score -I know I don’t owe you anything

You - have helped me
Grow so much - and taught me to trust
I am not worthless - I am not unwanted
I am a much greater person than I ever knew
