Why are you hurting still?
Do you feel ill?
Why are you a bleeding heart when you could be a beating heart, and dancing
Why do we clutch our pain so tightly it dominates our brain
Why are you hurting so
You are loved more than you’ll ever know
Feel supported and safe
I’m here, you’re ok
You see everything as a knife pointed at you
A threat to your life
I should know, I’ve been pulled by that undertow
Feel the earth below your feet, stand tall and listen to me
You don’t have to feel bad, you are allowed to feel glad
You don’t have to build walls
It’s a long way up for you to fall
There is love all around you
If only you knew
How can I express ultimate truth to you, except through song
