Work of Art

Well words don't come real easy to me
I've got a head full of ideas always incomplete
And the doctor says there's something wrong with me
I'm not a masterpiece
But despite all the flaws in my personality
The never ending battle to give up on my sanity
Relapse threatening to take away everything, I still believe

That the dimmest light shines brightest in the dark
And the greatest stories ever told come from broken bones and scars
Beautiful songs come from someone's broken heart
You don't have to be a masterpiece to be a work of art

So open up your eyes and see the beauty in everything
Focus on the love and that beautiful energy
Forgive yourself and every enemy
Love everyone
Because everybody fights a battle nobody else can see
Everybody knows how scary the dark can be
In the mirror hating everything you see
But you are loved

'Cause the dimmest light shines brightest in the dark
And the greatest stories ever told come from broken bones and scars
Beautiful songs come from someone's broken heart
You don't have to be a masterpiece to be a work of art

Well the falls that we take become the poems we create
If we all stood together we could stand for something great
And nobody is perfect everybody can relate
The masterpiece begins when we choose love instead of hate

So if you're hurting and alone
And this pain is in your soul
Then I want you to know that you are beautiful
You're absolutely perfect just the way you are
And I love you
You're a goddamn work of art
You're a goddamn work of art
