I Know Love
As a little girl
At the time
I wasn’t yours
You became mine
All I really needed was for you
To be kind
Those were the rules of a broken home
Never mind

And I
I’ve gone back and forth
Trying to realise how it all went down (fighting the tears I’ve cried)
Somehow
The pieces of me that were broken have all been mended now

Letting go of what I’ve known
I’m naked but not alone
I ain’t fighting the tears I’ve cried
The pain inside has been untied
No more fear inside of me
I’m setting my caged bird free
There’s not much I can be certain of
I don’t know much, now I know love
I held on for years, and then some
You never changed
I became numb
Never could’ve prepare for the road that
Was to come
You never broke me evenly
And that’s the sum

And I (and I)
I’ve gone back and forth
Trying to realise how it all went down
Somehow (somehow)
The pieces of me that were broken have all been mended now

Letting go of what I’ve known
I’m naked but not alone
I ain’t fighting the tears I’ve cried
The pain inside has been untied
No more fear inside of me
I’m setting my caged bird free
There’s not much I can be certain of
I don’t know much, now I know love

I never knew which end was right
Every day was like a fight
Crying an ocean of tears that I tried to hide
Never had a plan
Constantly searching, searching
This is who I am
This is who I am
Letting go of what I’ve known
I’m naked but not alone
I ain’t fighting the tears I’ve cried
The pain inside has been untied
No more fear inside of me
I’m setting my caged bird free
There’s not much I can be certain of
I don’t know much, now I know love
Now I know love
