It Almost Broke Me (Bluegrass Arena Live Session)

V5.5

[Intro..".Live Performance"] [Acoustic guitars] [Verse 1] I missed my stop Missed my moment Sat on the curb with my head in my hands All of my plans on the pavement Smudged like chalk in the rain Called my father He said nothing Just breathed slow on the phone till I calmed "Kid Every scar that you're nursing Is just your skin growing strong" [Chorus] Through all that almost broke me I'm still here I'm still here (oh yeah) Heart cracked open But it woke me Made the colors sharper Made the noise all clear Every fall that left me shaking Taught me how to stand and say There is beauty in the breaking There is beauty when you push through anyway [Verse 2] Got those letters "we regret to" Got those friends who just drifted like smoke Sat in the dark of my bedroom Talking back to the doubt like a joke Then one morning Kettle screaming Sun cut a line through the blinds on my face Felt all the weight But this feeling: "I haven't lost I'm just late to the race" [Chorus] Through all that almost broke me I'm still here I'm still here (hey) Heart cracked open But it woke me Made the colors sharper Made the noise all clear Every fall that left me shaking Taught me how to stand and say There is beauty in the breaking There is beauty when you push through anyway [Bridge] All the nights I thought were endings Just a pause before the page turns Every "never" I was defending Melted down into lessons I learned [Chorus] Through all that almost broke me I'm still here I'm still here (woah) Heart cracked open But it woke me Made the colors sharper Made the noise all clear Every fall that left me shaking Taught me how to stand and stay There is beauty in the breaking There is beauty when you push through anyway There is beauty when you push through Anyway [Outro....Live Performance] [Acoustic guitars]
