lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wipe it away, wipe it away
I’m looking back to older days
Comparison is a cure
Until it hits me to the core

[Pre-Chorus]
Been waiting all this time to heal
Get grip of the steering wheel
Or slowly slide into good
And wake up feeling better
But life has shown me
That healing takes time
And to heal is to feel what’s right

[Chorus]
I say yes to bad feelings
‘Cause they make me feel alive
And I love to be a human
To lose and to revive
When I cry I am myself
And I love to be alone
When my body talks I listen
Yeah, these tears are my religion

[Verse 2]
I used to believe that some issues are not worth crying for
But every feeling is valid and should never be ignored
We spend all our time avoiding the uncomfortable ‘til we can no more
Instead of exploring what’s out there we’re holding on to the shore

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, my fears make me who I am
I’d follow them through the darkness anytime
It’d feel like living without a light
Not to feel what is inside

[Chorus]
I say yes to bad feelings
‘Cause they make me feel alive
And I love to be a human
To lose and to revive
When I cry I am myself
And I love to be alone
When my body talks I listen
Yeah, these tears are my religion
I say yes to bad feelings
‘Cause they make me feel alive
And I love to be a human
To lose and to revive
When I cry I am myself
And I love to be alone
When my body talks I listen
Yeah, these tears are my religion

[Bridge]
I choose to be grateful for the pain
For it’s gonna help me find my way
And I know nothing stays the same
I know I’ll be dancing to this someday

[Chorus]
I say yes to bad feelings
‘Cause they make me feel alive
And I love to be a human
To lose and to revive
When I cry I am myself
And I love to be alone
When my body talks I listen
Yeah, these tears are my religion
I say yes to bad feelings
‘Cause they make me feel alive
And I love to be a human
To lose and to revive
When I cry I am myself
And I love to be alone
When my body talks I listen
Yeah, these tears are my religion

[Outro]
I choose to be grateful for the pain
For it’s gonna help me find my way
And I know nothing stays the same
I know I’ll be dancing to this someday
