"Sea Glass" lyrics

I used to be whole
I used to be beautiful
Like silver and gold
Were glittering in my soul
I used to be fun
I used to be magical
I glowed like the sun
Thought I was unbreakable

Then I was shattered scattered lost upon the sea
Until the riptide came and took pity on me

And she lifted me up, returned me to the land
Like a thousand pieces across the sand
I was hiding - come find me
I'm different than when I began
Like emeralds
Like sea glass in your hand
Like emeralds
Like sea glass in your hand

I wanted the ring, was ready to pay the price
I needed to sing, knew just what to sacrifice
Got lost in a dream, I just had to take that chance
To learn how to love, tangled in wild romance

Then I was shattered scattered lost upon the sea
Until the riptide came and took pity on me

And she lifted me up, returned me to the land
Like a thousand pieces across the sand
I was hiding - come find me
I'm different than when I began
Like emeralds
Like sea glass in your hand
Like emeralds
Like sea glass in your hand

They say life doesn't give you more than you can take
But sometimes to see the beauty inside, you've got to break

The breaking was hard, I started to show the cracks
You find your way out cause there is no turning back
I had break down to see how to start anew
You pick up the pieces to find what's inside of you
So if you get scattered, shattered, lost upon the sea
You can always find your way back to me

I used to be whole
I used to be beautiful
Like silver and gold
Were glittering in my soul
I used to be fun
I used to be magical
I glowed like the sun
But now I'm invisible
