tiny victories
(christina perri, ag)

some days i look in the mirror and i think
the meanest things
all the meanest things
some days i’m holding my self worth up
by a string
a string
but everyday 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 ribcage, my ribcage
some nights i’m just a million broken pieces singing
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 giving up on myself looks so
easy to do, it’s easy to do
the struggle is slow, i’m barely moving 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

and everyday that i don’t hide myself away
everyday that i don’t hide myself away
to me,
is a tiny victory

People don’t give her the credit she deserves. She’s so underrated bc she’s so real and not flashy and not taking clothes off for views. She’s my favorite singer and has been for an extremely long time.

[megamoviez]

This honestly should be nominated for Best Original Song at the Academy Awards next year! So should the documentary!

[tina]

This made me tear up. Weeks would pass and everything seems fine (even good) then you get hit by immense sadness. You ignore the dark thoughts, and you know they're going to pass but it's still hard. This makes me appreciate the good times.

At 41 and a survivor of childhood abuse and neglect, I thank you for this beauty~full reminder to acknowledge the tiny victories as I've been finally facing the pains to let them go forever. 💜💜💜

[bruceharvey]

As a man with bipolar disorder I definitely understand how this song expressed itself especially when going through a depressive episode thank you Christina for sharing your heart ❤️ with us God bless you Christina

I have a strange feeling...






This song is too pure for me

*Tiny Victories - Lyrics*
[Verse 1]
Some days, I Iook in the mirror and I think
The meanest things, all the meanest things
Some days, 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

[Verse 2]
Some days, it feels like a wrecking ball swinging
Through my ribcage, my ribcage
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 3]
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 it cracks beneath you, but there's light coming through

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
Every day that I don't hide myself away
Every day that I don't hide myself away
To me, is a tiny victory

[Kat-lswx]

I love this, it’s so relateable and I feel like so many people feel this on a personal level. Guys, keep winning your tiny victories, we can get there one day and win the war.

[lisadtrx]

You beautiful human being, all these tiny victories are moving mountains altogether.
So so proud of you, this is a pure gem. Lots of love <3

[beccas]

This song is helping me through my battle with anorexia and anxiety. Thank you for this beautiful song <3

[seanhennessey]

Thank you for sharing your pain and strength Christina, they are not just songs but more like your feelings & thoughts . Everything you sing and write feel real , you are a incredible force and we love you. X

God I missed her, I decided to look her up again and noticed that the last video I saw by her was 3 years ago than 8 months ago she started posting, now it’s been 3 months and hasn’t. I feel like over the years amazing, talented singers are just blown over and forgotten about but I’ve never forgotten you! Seeing her now she’s changed so much I just checked her Instagram story and it’s like I could walk around and she’d walk right past, and me not even knowing it was her. It’s a sad thing but she still brightens my day when I hear her new or old songs, they sometimes make me want to cry either for the meaning of them or just to remind me of like 6 years ago when it’s all I’d listen to.

[wduhmusiccountdown]

This song deserves millions of views and should be a number one hit. I can't believe it hasn't cracked Billboard's top 100.

[kierarose]

I love how you made a song about neglecting kids it is a very powerful song








And you are so underrated

[jasminekaur]
