Lyrics

Didn't ask for saving
But she saved me anyway
Didn't know I was fading
Til she lit up my grey
Been carrying ghosts in my chest
Wounds that smile but never rest
Loved em all til I ran outta breath
They took what they wanted then left what was left
Tried to be strength tried to be calm
But I drowned in their storms while they slept through the harm
And just when I thought no one cared to know
My daughter hit me different she cut through the cold
Said I was seen said I was worth
Told me I mattered without saying it first
Not for what I gave not for what I lost
But for who I am when there's no applause
She said you're the one I look to when I can't find the light
And I broke right there cause it finally felt right
Not begging not chasing just truth with no fight
That maybe I mattered this whole damn time
That maybe I'm gold not rust in disguise
I just gave it all to the wrong pair of eyes
I don't wanna be a martyr for love
Don't wanna bleed just to feel a touch
I gave my all and they called it too much
But she gave it back with no conditions no rush
Didn't flinch when she saw my pain
Didn't shrink from the cracks in my name
She stepped into my silence and called it brave
Told me my love was something to save
And it hit me
Maybe I was never broken just misplaced
Never unloved just out of place
Never invisible just too real for the fake
She brought me home with the words she gave
She said you're the one I look to when I can't find the light
And I broke right there cause it finally felt right
Not begging not chasing just truth with no fight
That maybe I mattered this whole damn time
That maybe I'm gold not rust in disguise
I just gave it all to the wrong pair of eyes
All the love I gave that felt ignored
She caught it mid air and held it like a sword
Said I was her hero when I felt like a ghost
The kind of truth that hurts but heals the most
She gave me back my worth
Without needing anything in return
And that's the kind of love I live for now
