Helen Trevillion - Stepping Stones lyrics

Oh I wore so many masks Before I learned to be me And I showed so many frowns Playing the fragile casualty I watched them dancing from a distance So sure I'd never be free So fiercely protective of Some darker shade of me Looking back I see that these Were stepping stones over the sea Cos all the tears that stained my face Were doorways to a better place (We just hold on.) Keys are hidden from our sight But we find them when we fall Pick ourselves up off the floor See secret windows in the wall And I swear everything we wanna be We already are Just gotta find those hidden keys Just gotta find them, oh - When rainy days seem much too long And everything's just going wrong Somedays we can barely crawl We're learning to be beautiful And time unwinds the aching hearts Heals the smiles that come apart All the tears that stain your face Are doorways to a better place So just hold on So just hold on Just hold on Just hold on Just hold on Just hold on
