Lyrics & Music

I woke up from a nightmare last night
Like every night
My heart pounding, my fists clinched
Yeah, every night

I open my eyes, take a breath, look around
Look around
And try to find a way to calm myself
Calm myself down

And I try to tell myself it’s not real
But it WAS real
And I wish it didn’t take so much time
Time to Heal

The damage was done very long ago
So long ago
I never knew what a struggle it would be
I didn’t know

So I get out of bed, check the time, and write
Write this down
I put light on the shadows in my mind and
Lay my head down

And I try to tell myself it’s not real
But it WAS real
And I wish it didn’t take so much time
Time to heal

Time to heal, time to heal, time to heal
Why does it take so much time to heal?
Why?

I woke up this morning to another day
One more day
I feel tired from the restless night
Like every day

I think about what I need to do
To do for me
Just another day in my journey
Of recovery

And I know that my recovery is real
Yes, it is real
Still I wish it didn’t take so much time
Time to heal

Time to heal, time to heal, time to heal
It takes so much time to heal.
So much time!

Time to heal, time to heal, time to heal
It’s time to heal.
