There was a time when I was feeling incomplete
Lost in the shadow of the person I could be
Chasing perfection in every direction, so focused on the end
I didn't see the journey and take in every step
Every long road song that I half-wrote brought me to where I am
Every root turns into branches, every question leads to answers
Even if the seed ain't fully grown
There's beauty in the bones
Just a drop can start a riptide
Just a word can change your whole life
Even if this story ain't been wrote
There's beauty in the bones...
There was a light inside the darkness I could sense
And when I found it, that's when beauty all began
Calm in the chaos, I'm not afraid of learning things my heart don't know
'Cause every new beginning starts with hope
Every long road song that I half-wrote brought me to where I am
Every root turns into branches, every question leads to answers
Even if the seed ain't fully grown
There's beauty in the bones
Just a drop can start a riptide
Just a word can change your whole life
Even if this story ain't been wrote
There's beauty in the bones...
Like a half-drawn masterpiece
Like a half-played symphony
There's a beauty imperfect
In the journey and where it all leads to
Every root turns into branches
Every question leads to answers
Even if the seed ain't fully grown
There's beauty in the bones
Just a drop can start a riptide
Just a word can change a whole life
Even if this story ain't been wrote
There's beauty in the bones...
