[Verse 1]
I learned my name in the dark
Under a ceiling of stone
Where every goodbye I had left
Turned to dust in my bones
I sat with the shape of your absence
And it sat right back with me
Like a room that had swallowed the sunrise
And forgot how to breathe
[Pre-Chorus]
But something in me stayed
A small stubborn spark
It said, "not today"
In the middle of the dark
I put one hand on my heart
Then I took one step
Then another, then another
Till the edge wasn't the end
[Chorus]
I pull me up
I pull me up
From the deepest cut
I pull me up
I pull me up
I won't stay stuck
(Keep on)
I was buried in the flood
Now I'm standing in the sun
I pull me up
I pull me up
[Verse 2]
There were nights I could taste the silence
Sharp as winter on skin
I wore sorrow like a heavy coat
Till it started wearing me thin
I cried till the floor held my shadow
I cried till the ache went numb
Then I found my breath in the wreckage
And I said, "here I come"
[Pre-Chorus]
No, I didn't heal in a second
No, I didn't rise clean
I had to drag hope through the embers
Had to make it believe
I put one hand on my heart
Then I took one step
Then another, then another
Till the edge wasn't the end
[Chorus]
I pull me up
I pull me up
From the deepest cut
I pull me up
I pull me up
I won't stay stuck
(Keep on)
I was buried in the flood
Now I'm standing in the sun
I pull me up
I pull me up
[Bridge]
If I shake, let me shake
If I break, let me bend
I am still here
I am still here
Not the grief, not the end
Every scar is a door
Every bruise is a map
And I walked through the wreck
With my own two hands
[Final Chorus]
I pull me up
I pull me up
From the deepest cut
I pull me up
I pull me up
I won't stay stuck
(Keep on)
I was buried in the flood
Now I'm standing in the sun
I pull me up
I pull me up
I pull me up
I pull me up
