It’s a complicated story
That we never talk about
But I see it in the mirrors
In the curtains of our house
I don’t want you to be worried
That we’re running out of time
It doesn’t matter where we’re going
We can leave it all behind

Only when I see you cry
I feel conflicted in my mind
It fills my heart up and it breaks me at the very same time
When you open up the gates for me
And leave the world behind
We find proof of love is hidden
In the conflict of the mind

I remember how I’d find you
Fingers tearing through the ground
Were you digging something up
Or did you bury something down?
In your soul, I found a thirst
With only salt inside your cup
In your eyes, I saw a longing
While I longed to lift you up

Only when I see you cry
I feel conflicted in my mind
It fills my heart up and it breaks me at the very same time
When you open up the gates for me
And leave the world behind
We find proof of love is hidden
In the conflict of the mind

Da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da
Da-da, da-da-da

Don’t let your spirit die
This is just a conflict of the mind
Is your heart alive?
You’ll overcome a conflict of the mind
Don’t let your spirit die
This is just a conflict of the mind
Is your heart alive?
You’ll overcome a conflict of the mind
Don’t let your spirit die
This is just a conflict of the mind
Is your heart alive?
You’ll overcome a conflict of the mind

Love is you
(Love, love, love, love is not gone, love)
Love is you
(Love, love, love, love is not gone, love)
Love is, love is, love
(Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love)
Love is you
(Love, love, love, love, love, love, love)
Love

Artist’s Meaning:

“I tend to isolate myself when I’m in pain. And over time, I’ve learned that I’ve deprived the people around me of the great honor of being there for someone they love. Deep down, beneath all the darkness, there is beauty. Once you truly open up, you’ll find a version of yourself that you thought had disappeared. And it will be beautiful.”

She adds: “Talk to each other before it’s too late. All families suffer pain and I believe that talking to each other is an important part of healing. After the storm comes peace.”
