Acceptance
by Sparrows Rising

Album: So Close

Verse 1:
My hair is in knots
I've had negative thoughts
and I'm questioning every small thing
My house isn't clean
I'm so tired I could scream
But at the tips of my toes I will sing

Chorus:
This is me, in all of my splendor
I have struggles, I have issues, I surrender
I'm a big ole mess…
But so are you
We're all complicated
We are flawed and we are frayed and we are faded
But we do our best, deserve nothing less...than acceptance

Verse 2:
At times I feel blue, I've anxieties too
Exhaustion's my only repose
But I wake up each day and press on anyway
And try not to dwell on the lows

~CHORUS~

Bridge:
There are days when I'm barely treading water
And the world won't cut me any slack
But I keep my head up and don't bother
Worrying who's at my back

Cuz this is me, in all of my splendor
I am bruised, I am scarred, I'm a little tender
But I'm doing my best
And so are you
We all do what we can
It's a long and windy road but in the end...
...we need acceptance
