Was twenty-seven, surviving my return to Saturn A long vacation didn't sound so bad Was full of secrets locked And tied like iron melting Running on empty so out of gas
Thought I wasn't enough Found I wasn't so tough Laying on the bathroom floor We were living on a fault line and I felt the fault was all mine Couldn't take it anymore
By the grace of God (There was no other way) I picked myself back up (I knew I had to stay) I put one foot in front of the other and I Looked in the mirror and decided to stay Wasn't gonna let love take me out that way
I thank my sister for keeping My head above the water When the truth was like swallowing sand Now, every morning, Hope there is no more mourning Oh, I can finally see myself again
I know I am enough, possible to be loved It was not about me Now I have to rise above Let the universe call the bluff Yeah, the truth will set you free
By the grace of God (There was no other way) I picked myself back up (I knew I had to stay) I put one foot in front of the other and I Looked in the mirror and decided to stay Wasn't gonna let love take me out that way
That way, no, that way no Not in the name, in the name of love that way, no, that way, no I am not giving up
By the grace of God I picked myself back up I put one foot in front of the other and I looked in the mirror (looked in the mirror) looked in the mirror (looked in the mirror)
By the grace of God (There was no other way) I picked myself back up (I knew I had to stay) I put one foot in front of the other and I Looked in the mirror and decided to stay Wasn't gonna let love take me out that way
