past self

Lyrics

Verse 1
hello dear my past self
I know you feel the weight
stress on your shoulders lately
but you still show up anyway
I keep my hands on the dream
even when my breath runs thin
I am tired, but I’m moving
I’m not letting doubt win

Pre-Chorus
so bless me now
with steady feet
teach my heart
how to believe
if the road is long
walk it with me
I’m asking for peace

Chorus
hello dear my past self
please hold on
please hold on
we’re getting there
hello dear my past self
keep me strong
keep me strong
peace is waiting there
(with peace)

Verse 2
I want a place to lay down
where the noise can’t follow me
where my mind can stop its running
and my chest can finally breathe
no more worrying about something else
no more chasing every storm
just a quiet little heaven
where we can feel safe and warm

Pre-Chorus
so bless me now
with steady feet
teach my heart
how to believe
if the road is long
walk it with me
I’m asking for peace

Chorus
hello dear my past self
please hold on
please hold on
we’re getting there
hello dear my past self
keep me strong
keep me strong
peace is waiting there
(with peace)

Bridge
if I stumble, lift me up
if I fall, don’t let me stay
I’ve come too far in all this dust
to turn my face away
one day soon, I’ll reach that shore
and rest my bones at last
you and I will breathe as one
and none of this will pass

Final Chorus
hello dear my past self
please hold on
please hold on
we’re getting there
hello dear my past self
keep me strong
keep me strong
peace is waiting there
hello dear my past self
please hold on
please hold on
we’re getting there
(with peace)
