Bloom in Silence

I been running on empty

Hands full of yesterday

Pockets full of small worries

That I keep dragging around all day

Let the room get a little quiet

Let my name fall out my mouth

I don't need to prove I made it

I just need to slow down

Maybe I grow in stillness

Maybe I heal in the pause

Maybe the ground can hold me

When I stop fighting so hard

Rest and grow, rest and grow

I can let my body know

Soft is strong, soft is strong

I don't have to rush alone

Rest and grow, rest and grow

Watch the hurt begin to fold

Soft is strong, soft is strong

I can bloom in the slow

Sun on the floorboards, warm gold

A glass of water by my bed

Texting back "not today, baby"

Let the guilt leave me instead

I keep finding little flowers

In the cracks of what I missed

Turns out peace was never empty

It was space to exist

Maybe I grow in stillness

Maybe I heal in the pause

Maybe the ground can hold me

When I stop fighting so hard

Rest and grow, rest and grow

I can let my body know

Soft is strong, soft is strong

I don't have to rush alone

Rest and grow, rest and grow

Watch the hurt begin to fold

Soft is strong, soft is strong

I can bloom in the slow

Breathe in, breathe out

Let the edge go down

I don't need a breakthrough

I need a kinder now

Hand on my heart

Feet on the floor

What I couldn't carry

I can leave at the door

Rest and grow, rest and grow

I can let my body know

Soft is strong, soft is strong

I don't have to rush alone

Rest and grow, rest and grow

Watch the hurt begin to fold

Soft is strong, soft is strong

I can bloom in the slow
