[Verse 1]
Dear younger me, I see you there,
Fighting shadows, gasping for air.
Every tear you shed, every bruise,
I’m here to tell you, you’re not to lose.
[Chorus]
I’m sorry for the pain, the fights alone,
The nights you felt you had no home.
You’re more than the scars, more than the strife,
I wish I could show you, the beauty in your life.
[Verse 2]
You wore your heart like a delicate thread,
Tangled in worries, living in your head.
Chasing perfection, a constantly moving goal,
But love, you’re enough, just let yourself unfold.
[Chorus]
I’m sorry for the pain, the fights alone,
The nights you felt you had no home.
You’re more than the scars, more than the strife,
I wish I could show you, the beauty in your life.
[Bridge]
Every whispered word that made you cry,
Every moment you wished you could fly,
I see your struggle, your silent plea,
Just hold on tight, you will break free.
[Outro]
So here’s my hand, let’s walk this road,
Embrace your journey, lighten the load.
Dear younger me, it’s time to forgive,
In this imperfect life, learn how to live.
[Chorus]
I’m sorry for the pain, the fights alone,
The nights you felt you had no home.
You’re more than the scars, more than the strife,
I wish I could show you, the beauty in your life.
