Lyrics

Verse

You're tracing the edge of the table again

Swallowing the words that you hold in your head

You build up a fortress, you put on a show

Scared if you crack, I'll just pack up and go

You apologize just for feeling so low

Like you're ruining the party, but darling, I know...

Pre-Chorus

You don't have to hold up the sky

Not tonight, not with me.

Let the heavy weather break

Just let it be.

Chorus

'Cause I see the gold in your broken spaces

I trace the lines on your tear-stained face, and

To me, you are an absolute masterpiece

So let down the walls, let the armour fall

You don't have to hide in the dark

I love the quiet light of who you are

Verse

You think you're a burden, you think you're too loud

Just a fading spark in a perfect crowd

You've been told that your sadness is something to hide

But I'm sitting right here, on your darkest side

I've memorized the rhythm of your breathing in the night

And I'm not afraid of your shadows, I don't only need the light

Pre-Chorus

So you don't have to put on a brave face

Not today, not with me

Let the river overflow

Just let it be

Chorus

'Cause I see the gold in your broken spaces

I kiss the tears on your tired face, and

To me, you are an absolute masterpiece

So let down the walls, let the armour fall

You don't have to hide in the dark

I love the quiet light of who you are

Bridge

When the mirror lies, when the voices scream

When you're caught in the grip of a fever dream

When you hate yourself, I will love you more

I will sit with you right here on the bathroom floor

I'm the anchor, I'm the ground

I will hold your hand till your breath slows down

"You are amazing"

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Yeah, I see the gold in your broken spaces

I see the beauty in your tired face

To me, you are an absolute masterpiece

So let down the walls, let the armour fall

You never have to hide in the dark

Yeah, I see the gold in your broken spaces

I see the beauty in your tired face.

To me, you are an absolute masterpiece

Yeah, I see the gold in your broken spaces

I see the beauty in your tired face.

To me, you are an absolute masterpiece

Outro

To me, you are an absolute masterpiece
