Seventeen, California with a dream
Trying to find a melody, a song to sing, as an offering
Twenty-three, married on a TV screen
Sacrificing everything for a fantasy they were promising
Headlines never tell you how the story goes
But heaven saw the light in the depths of your soul, oh
Yeah, heaven knows
When they break me
See how the pieces will shape me
See how the brokenness changed me
Made me who I am
Yeah, I found myself in the broken past
And my story's told through the stained glass
All the love and the pain and the life that it took to create it
My mosaic
Thirty-three, the earth was shaking at your feet
Cracks inside the family, oh the gravity, it was shattering
Headlines never tell you how the story goes
But heaven saw the light in the depths of your soul, oh
Yeah, you know that heaven knows
When they break me
See how the pieces will shape me
See how the brokenness changed me
Made me who I am
Yeah, I found myself in the broken past
And my story's told through the stained glass
All the love and the pain and the life that it took to create it
My mosaic
Yeah, I know it's not perfect
My mosaic
But you know it's been worth it
My mosaic
Yeah, I know it's not perfect
My mosaic
But you know it's been worth it
2023, born again in Tennessee
Back to what I first believed, now I am free, finally
Say, ooh
Say, ooh
Say, ooh
Say, ooh
