Lyrics
I tried to walk quickly past the water's edge
Didn't wanna see my own reflection
But I just stepped off the highest ledge
And fell into the sea of imperfection
Just like every other time before
I washed up in pieces on the shore
Chorus:
You found beauty in this broken thing
Made angels dance with wounded wings
I can't imagine anything more beautiful
You took the damaged part of me
Restored what little dignity was left inside
This broken thing
Yeah, I was wading in deep despair
Wandering with no sense of direction
Thinking prayers just vanished in the air
'Cause I got myself in this situation
And just like every other time before
You made the pieces into so much more
(Repeat Chorus)
Bridge:
I know I'm not worthy of
This never ending perfect love
(Repeat Chorus)
