I was 27 was surviving my return of Saturn

A long vacation didn't sound so bad

Was full of secrets locked up tight like iron melting

Running on empty so out of gas

Thought I wasn't enough

Found I wasn't so tough

Layin' 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 foot in front of the other

And I looked in the mirror

And decided to stay

Wasn't gonna let love take me up

That way

I thank my sister for keeping my head above the water

When the truth was like swallowing sand

Now every morning

Oh there is no more mourning over

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'll 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 up

Oh, that way, that way, no

Not in the name

In the name of love

That way, 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 up

That way
