I Said Yes — release page

There's a second before the jump when your body knows
When the throat goes tight and the whole world slows
Don't let that quiet talk you back inside
Some things only open from the other side
Go find the kind of love that hollows you out inside
That makes you beg for more in the middle of the night
The ones who kept their distance kept their nothing too
But you'll have something better, you'll have truth

I said yes when every nerve said turn around
I held the rope when the weight was pulling down
I went all in when the exit sign was glowing
I went from understanding to knowing
And I'd do it all again

The days stack up whether or not you show
Every one a seed you either tend or let go
So raise a glass to the version of you that bled
To every door you walked through full of dread
The people watching from the edges of your story
Were never going to hand you back your glory
Go take it, raw and loud and unashamed
Go live the kind of life that can't be tamed

I said yes when every nerve said turn around
I held the rope when the weight was pulling down
I went all in when the exit sign was glowing
I went from understanding to knowing
And I'd do it all again

Not because the hurt was small
But because the hurt was mine
Every crack that ran right through me
Turned to something close to light

I said yes when every nerve said turn around
I held the rope when the weight was pulling down
I went all in when the exit sign was glowing
I went from understanding to knowing
And I'd do it all again
I'd do it all again
