Love Isn’t a Rescue

I don't need a hero in the rain
Don't want a hand to pull me from the flame
I've been building my own shelter
Learning how to dance through thunder

You see the fire in my quiet
Not the cracks in my voice when I try it
I'm not a story that needs fixing
Just a soul that's worth witnessing

You don't have to carry me
Just walk beside me free
I don't need to be completed
I just wanna be believed in

Love isn't a rescue it's a mirror held high
Not a lifeboat in the storm but a reason why I fly
You don't have to save me to stand by my side
Just see me just see me
In the light I already shine

(Oh-oh-oh) I'm not broken I'm becoming
(Oh-oh-oh) I don't need a prince I'm running
(Oh-oh-oh) Love me wild love me true
But don't rewrite what I've been through

I've been soft and still stood tall
I've felt empty and still gave it all
You can hold my hand not my worth
Let me show you how I rise from dirt

I want love that meets me halfway
Not one that dims me just to stay
I am not your mission your fix your fight
I am stardust learning how to ignite

You don't have to rescue me
Just dream and rise with me
I'm not waiting for a savior
Just someone brave enough to see her

Love isn't a rescue it's a mirror held high
Not a lifeboat in the storm but a reason why I fly
You don't have to save me to stand by my side
Just see me just see me
In the light I already shine

Don't call me lost I've always known the way
I just needed time not someone to pave
This isn't a movie where I fall to be found
This is real life-I rise from the ground

Love isn't a rescue it's a truth that aligns
Not a chain not a cure just a heart that's kind
You don't need to fix me-stand in my light
And see me just see me
I was always burning bright

Oh-oh-oh I'm not broken I'm becoming
Oh-oh-oh I don't need saving I need loving
Oh-oh-oh just see me
Just see me shine
