Heal
Drew Allen Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

We hide pain in the weirdest places
Broken souls with smiling faces
Fighting for surrender from now and the after.

Just look around and you see the people,
they're scared to say how they really feel though
We all need a little honesty

You are loved
If your heart's in a thousand pieces
If you're lost and you're far from reason
Just look up, know you are loved
Just look up, know you are loved
When you feel like somethings missing
If it hurts but you can't find healing
Just look up, know you are loved
Just look up, know you are loved

We're not meant to be superheroes,
photoshopped, or size zero
It's a lie, not expected but not quite perfected
Look up see the sun is shinning
There's hope on a new horizon, calling you
It's calling

You are loved
If your heart's in a thousand pieces
If you're lost and you're far from reason
Just look up, know you are loved
Just look up, know you are loved
When you feel like somethings missing
If it hurts but you can't find healing
Just look up, know you are loved
Just look up, know you are loved

You don't have to prove yourself
Don't try to be someone else
You don't have to prove yourself
Don't try to be someone else

You are loved
Ohhhhhh
You are loved
If your heart's in a thousand pieces
If you're lost and you're far from reason
Just look up, know you are loved
Just look up, know you are loved
When you feel like somethings missing
If it hurts but you can't find healing
Just look up, know you are loved
Just look up, know you are loved
If your heart's in a thousand pieces
If you're lost and you're far from reason
Just look up, know you are loved
Just look up, know you are loved
When you feel like somethings missing
If it hurts but you can't find healing

Just look up, know you are loved
Just look up, know you are loved
