Not Broken
Soft pop-ballad meets light country crossover with delicate acoustic guitar, airy piano, and subtle pedal steel accents, Gentle percussion and warm bass underpin the arrangement as lush harmonies support a heartfelt male vocal, Instrumentation swells gracefully at the chorus, gently easing for the outro

Instrumental Intro
Verse 1
You're not selfish
For dreaming of a different place
For wanting room to breathe again
For needing time and your own space
Verse 2
You're not wrong
To wish for something undefined
To chase a voice you barely knew
That's been whisperin’ in your mind
Chorus
You're not selfish for wanting freedom
You're not wrong for needing more
You're not cruel for telling the truth
You're not broken
not anymore
Verse 3
You're not cruel
To say the words you had to say
To walk a road that feels unknown
And gently turn and walk away
Verse 4
You're not broken
Although your heart now weighs a ton
You’re learning how to stand alone
After years spent with someone
Chorus
You're not selfish for wanting freedom
You're not wrong for needing more
You're not cruel for telling the truth
You're not broken
not anymore
Bridge
It’s not the end, it’s a brand new start
And you don’t owe the world a smile
You’re finding what still makes you whole
Even if it takes a while
Chorus
You're not selfish for wanting freedom
You're not wrong for needing more
You're not cruel for telling the truth
You're not broken
not anymore
Outro
(You're not broken)
{You're just learning who you are)
