So broken to your bones
The love you had is gone
You're still holding on
Hoping hope against hope
And nothing I could say
Could really help the pain
Just take it day by day
Soon, you'll see

All the beauty in the bruises that are showing
They're reminding you that every day, you're growing
And the pain's the only real way of knowing

It hurts when it's healing
It hurts when it's healing
Don't fight the feeling
You'll know that it's real when
It hurts when it's healing
And the fire that's in your bones
You make it beautiful
So don't fight the feeling
It hurts when it's healing

If someone told you
You'll never make it through
Show 'em that's not true
The more that you become you
On your own

All the beauty in the bruises that are showing
They're reminding you that every day, you're growing
And the pain's the only real way of knowing

It hurts when it's healing
It hurts when it's healing
Don't fight the feeling
You'll know that it's real when
It hurts when it's healing
And the fire that's in your bones
You make it beautiful
So don't fight the feeling
It hurts when it's healing

And you are stronger than you know
It's in your bones
So don't lose hope

It hurts when it's healing
Hurts when it's healing
Don't fight the feeling
You'll know that it's real when
It hurts when it's healing
And the fire that's in your bones
You make it beautiful
So don't fight the feeling
It hurts when it's healing

It hurts when it's healing
So don't fight the feeling
It hurts when it's healing
It hurts when it's healing
