Lyrics

VERSE 1 I don’t chase echoes, I don’t wait at locked doors I don’t make a home out of maybe anymore I don’t trade my breath for almost, I don’t bend to be held I don’t call it love if I’m leaving myself I’ve loved with my hands empty, I’ve loved with my hands bound I’ve loved like I was asking, I love like I decide now PRE-CHORUS I know who I am, I know what I need I know the weight of staying, I know the cost of leaving I’ve earned my name, I’ve earned my ground CHORUS I love with a sovereign heart Open, steady, slow I can want you close I don’t give myself away though I love with a sovereign heart VERSE 2 I let things be simple, I let things be true I don’t build cathedrals out of a night with you I don’t confuse quiet with gone, I don’t confuse space with no I don’t read between lines, I watch what you show I don’t romanticize absence, I don’t seduce myself with ache I don’t chase reflections, I choose what stays PRE-CHORUS 2 If you’re here, be here, if you’re not, say so I’m not afraid of honesty, I’m afraid of pretending I don’t know I don’t need perfect, I need real CHORUS I love with a sovereign heart Soft body, solid ground I don’t need to own you I don’t need to pin you down I love with a sovereign heart VERSE 3 I’ve loved the ones who couldn’t meet me, I’ve loved the ones who stayed I’ve loved in half-light hallways, I’ve loved in open flame I’ve learned my love is medicine, I’ve learned my love is wild I’ve learned to give it without giving up the child BRIDGE I’ve loved from my knees, I’ve loved from my spine I’ve loved like I was waiting, I love like I’m deciding I can miss you and still sleep, I can want you and still breathe I can feel everything and not abandon me I can hold more than one truth, more than one kind of love I don’t split myself in two, I rise above BREAK I am not unfinished, I am not behind I am not waiting to be claimed as mine I belong to me FINAL CHORUS I love with a sovereign heart Warm blood, clear mind I don’t lose myself in wanting I don’t leave myself behind If you walk beside me, walk honest, walk slow I’ll meet you in presence but I don’t let myself go I love with a sovereign heart OUTRO (WHISPERED) Still open, still whole, still mine Meet me where I am
