  • Some days I Iook in the mirror and I think
    The meanest things, all the meanest things
    Somedays I'm holding my self-worth up
    By a string, a string
    But every day that I don't hide myself away
    To me, is a tiny victory

    Some days it feels like a wrecking ball is swinging
    Through my rib cage, my rib cage
    Some nights I'm just a million broken pieces singin'
    On a stage
    I'm a little more broken open, but a little more free
    And that's a tiny victory

    And if battles can win a war
    I can keep picking my sword up off the floor
    And learn to treasure these
    Tiny victories, tiny victories

    Some days givin' up on myself looks so
    So easy to do, it's so easy to do
    The struggle is slow, I'm barely movin' the needle
    And the cracks may be few, but there's light coming through

    And if battles can win a war
    I can keep picking my sword up off the floor
    And learn to treasure these
    Tiny victories, tiny victories
    Tiny victories, tiny victories

    Every day that I don't hide myself away
    Every day that I don't hide myself away
    To me, is a tiny victory Writer/s: Adrianne E Gonzalez, Christina Judith Perri
