Lyric

I rose with the seam of the sky

Stitched in my jacket of doubts

Carried the weight of my name

Like a stone in the mouth of the route

You came with a look like rain

Soft on the edge of my pace

Taught me the bruise can still bloom

If I let it stay in its place

So I bend, I breathe

I don’t break for the storm

I keep one hand on the dream

And one hand on the worn-out door

Hold me in the tide

I’m still learning how to live

Hold me in the tide

I’ve got more than I can give

Hold me in the tide

We can make it through the ache

Hold me in the tide

Till the dark begins to shake

The hours come dressed like a judge

Counting my chances in sand

I learned to speak with my scars

And to trust a careful hand

At the edge of the ledge and the ledgers

I walk with my hope on my sleeve

Love is a lantern in weather

Work is a field I believe

So I bend, I breathe

I don’t bow to the fear

If the road turns hard and thin

I still find the open here

Hold me in the tide

I’m still learning how to live

Hold me in the tide

I’ve got more than I can give

Hold me in the tide

We can make it through the ache

Hold me in the tide

Till the dark begins to shake

When the world feels split at the seam

And the mirror speaks in smoke

I remember your steady flame

In the ribs of the long road

No gold in the ache I wear

Just the proof that I remained

If I lose my footing tonight

Pull me back into my name

Hold me in the tide

I’m still learning how to live

Hold me in the tide

I’ve got more than I can give

Hold me in the tide

We can make it through the ache

Hold me in the tide

Till the dark begins to shake

Hold me in the tide

Let the wounded waters sing

Hold me in the tide

We are more than what we bring

Hold me in the tide

Love is stronger than the fall

Hold me in the tide

We can rise through it all
