Terracotta Grace

[Intro]
[Verse]
Dirt beneath my short nails
The grey sky never fails
To keep the world outside
With nowhere left to hide
Monstera needs a bigger home
Where the heavy roots can roam
I’m shaking off the dust
In the silence I trust
[Pre-Chorus]
Sage leaves turning to gold
Stories left to be told
In the steam of the tea
Setting my spirit free
[Chorus]
Just a little bit of mending
A love that's never-ending
In the quiet of the green
The parts of me unseen
Growing steady and slow
Learning how to let go
[Post-Chorus]
Softly, I am healing
Sweet, sacred feeling
Just the herbs and the rain
Washing away the strain
[Verse]
The Rhodes begins to play
On this Tuesday afternoon
I find a better way
To hum a different tune
Repotting every single fear
The flugelhorn is sounding near
Lavender is waking up
Sip from a ceramic cup
[Pre-Chorus]
Old soil falls to the floor
I don’t need any more
Than the light through the pane
And the soft summer rain
[Chorus]
Just a little bit of mending
A love that's never-ending
In the quiet of the green
The parts of me unseen
Growing steady and slow
Learning how to let go
[Bridge]
It’s not for the show
It’s just for the soul
Watching the roots grow
Feeling finally whole
No cameras in the hall
Just me against the wall
Tending to the small things
The peace that patience brings
[Chorus]
Just a little bit of mending
A love that's never-ending
In the quiet of the green
The parts of me unseen
Growing steady and slow
Learning how to let go
[Post-Chorus]
Softly, I am healing
Sweet, sacred feeling
Just the herbs and the rain
Washing away the strain
[Outro]
