Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh-oh

Verse 1

Woke up with a weight I couldn't name

Sun through the blinds told me try again

Used to count my losses like a score

Now I count the mornings I survived before

Pre-Chorus

I been learning how to sit with the quiet

Let the silence teach me what the noise hid

Every scar a chapter I keep writing

Every breath a reason I'm still here

Chorus

I'm still standing in the light

Still standing in the light

Took the long way home but I arrived

I'm still standing in the light

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Still here

Oh-oh

Still here

Verse 2

Mama used to pray I'd find my way

I was busy running from the man I'd be

Now I hold my younger self and say

You were never broken just unseen

Pre-Chorus

I been learning how to sit with the quiet

Let the silence teach me what the noise hid

Every scar a chapter I keep writing

Every breath a reason I'm still here

Chorus

I'm still standing in the light

Still standing in the light

Took the long way home but I arrived

I'm still standing in the light

Bridge

Slow down

Let the ground hold you

Slow down

Let the ground hold you

I don't need to know the ending

Just to trust the road I'm on

Chorus

I'm still standing in the light

Still standing in the light

Took the long way home but I arrived

I'm still standing in the light

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh

Still here

Oh-oh

Still here
