More than Pieces

[Verse 1]
I kept the box by the bed
Old notes, cracked photo edges
The day I learned to stay
The day I learned to run

I wore my bruises like proof
I wore my wins like a secret
Some nights I bit my tongue
Some nights I told the truth

[Pre-Chorus]
And every scar
Was a sharp little teacher
Every loss
Left a line on my hands

[Chorus]
I am what it made me
I am what it made me
Good and bad, I made it through
I am more than the pieces
I am more than the pieces
Happy with the shape of you

[Verse 2]
My mother’s laugh in the hall
My father’s silence at dinner
The friend who stayed too long
The friend who left me cold

I buried shame in the yard
I found my courage in winter
I learned to name the ache
Then let it loose its hold

[Pre-Chorus]
And every wound
Was a map to the others
Every fall
Taught my feet where to land

[Chorus]
I am what it made me
I am what it made me
Good and bad, I made it through
I am more than the pieces
I am more than the pieces
Happy with the shape of you

[Bridge]
I don't need to erase
The crooked lines or the dark ones
They live in the same hands
That reach for the light

So I’ll carry the whole thing
The mercy and the mess of it
I met myself in the break
And I survived

[Chorus]
I am what it made me
I am what it made me
Good and bad, I made it through
I am more than the pieces
I am more than the pieces
Happy with the shape of you

[Outro]
Happy with the shape
Happy with the shape
Happy with the shape of you
