about

Today's song is probably one of my faves so far; I'm not gonna lie.

I put up my hat as a "self love is the best kind of love" advocate, and hung up my "let's talk about the hard, political stuff for a minute" coat, and wrote an actual love song - but this song is more than about love [of course]; it's about learning to trust again. And learning to recognize that my "teammate" [as he calls himself] is a new team. A team that I need to trust, and recognize is different that the other teammates.

... okay, maybe that analogy sounds a bit weird, but hey. It's still a pretty song, if I do say so myself. ;)

lyrics

I’d give you my reasons
But I’ve built my walls
Cos I’m in control when
I break my own heart
I chase every love song
Convinced that it’s right
Cos I’m in control when
I force you to say goodbye

But I’m breaking the habit of shutting you out
If love is a decision I can’t do without

I’m breaking up with a past
That no longer serves me
The trauma that’s in my bones
Is now only learning
I’m breaking up with the fear
And leaning into your truth
I’m learning to trust again
If love is having faith in you

I’ve always run away
My mask is a smile
When deep down I know that there
Is power in every tear that I cry
But if weapons can be turned on me
My own knife in my back
Then baby can’t you understand
I’m learning to stand up and fight back

But I’m breaking the habit of shutting you out
If love is a decision I can’t do without

I’m breaking up with a past
That no longer serves me
The trauma that’s in my bones
Is now only learning
I’m breaking up with the fear
And leaning into your truth
I’m learning to trust again
If love is having faith in you

And I know that it’s frustrating
I know that it’s hard
I’m unlearning the lessons
That have broken my heart

I’m breaking up with a past
That no longer serves me
The trauma that’s in my bones
Is now only learning
I’m breaking up with the fear
And leaning into your truth
I’m learning to trust again
If love is having faith in you
