Lyrics
Verse 1
I tried to cover every crack
Hide the parts I couldn’t fix
Built my walls to keep me safe
But I was breaking in between them
Every time I felt the truth
I turned my eyes away
Afraid of what the dark would show
If I let the shadows stay
Chorus
But the light gets in
Through the places that gave way
Through the nights I couldn’t save
Or keep away
The light gets in
Every scar, every bend
That’s where healing begins
That’s where the light gets in
Verse 2
I carried shame like it was mine
Like it defined my name
But I’m learning now what love can do
When it’s not afraid
I don’t need to be untouched
I don’t need to be whole
I just need to let myself
Be known
Chorus
’Cause the light gets in
Through the places that gave way
Through the nights I couldn’t save
Or keep away
The light gets in
Every scar, every bend
That’s where healing begins
That’s where the light gets in
Bridge
I don’t have to hide
I don’t have to pretend
I don’t have to fix myself
Before the light gets in
Final Chorus
The light gets in
Through the cracks I used to fear
Through the truth I couldn’t hear
Till you came in
The light gets in
I’m not broken, I’m open
This is how it begins
This is where the light gets in
Outro
This is where the light gets in
