Versuri Michelle Lauret – It's okay to change? lyrics

[Verse 1]
I ask myself what I became
Who am I behind this name
What do they see when they see me
A broken light? A memory?
My body’s heavy, full of lines
Invisible wars, silent cries
I learned to stand through every fall
Through quiet nights that hurt the most of all

[Pre-Chorus]
My skin’s not soft the way it was
When I was young, untouched, because
My innocence slipped like the tide
It didn’t scream, it said goodbye

[Chorus]
My sparkle dimmed without a sound
Somewhere between being lost and found
They never touched me with their hands
But words can bruise, you understand
Used for comfort, used for need
Smiling while I slowly bleed
I carry no revenge inside
But hearts remember what they hide

[Verse 2]
And though I say I’m growing strong
There’s parts of me that still feel wrong
I’m growing up, I didn’t know
It meant that I would lose control
That I would have to walk away
From love that never chose to stay
This world is pretty dressed in lies
With sharpened truth behind its eyes

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I used to love this fragile frame
No guilt, no fear, no sense of shame
But mirrors whispered things untrue
About what I should try to do

[Chorus]
Until I barely recognized
The softer child behind my eyes
They never touched me with their hands
But words can bruise, you understand
Used for comfort, used for need
Smiling while I slowly bleed
I carry no revenge inside
But hearts remember what they hide

[Bridge]
Now standing by the ocean wide
I feel that little voice inside
She asks me softly, “Did we win?”
I tell her, “We survived again.”
The waves crash hard, then pull away
Like every heart that couldn’t stay
And in that rhythm I can see
What all this loss has made of me

[Final Chorus / Outro]
I don’t need arms to make me whole
Or someone else to fill my soul
I don’t need saving from the sea
The tide is rising out of me
The breeze still moves across my skin
But something stronger grows within
My innocence may not remain
But I won’t let them take my name
In the ocean of who I’ve been
I lost a child —
And found my strength within.
