V5.5

[INTRO] Yeah… We all got a story… I was born in the silence of a backroad storm, Dirt on my hands, yeah, pain in my form... Mama said “love’s gonna break you, son,” But I was too young, I just wanted someone… [VERSE 1] I grew up fast, had dreams in a flask, Tryna pour out pain but it always came back, Heart like glass, yeah I shattered it quick, Every “forever” turned counterfeit… Yeah... I loved too hard, I bled through the seams, Built a whole life off impossible dreams, Every night I was fightin’ myself, Put my soul on a shelf just to be someone else… I was lost in the noise, couldn’t hear my name, Every kiss felt good but it burned like flame, Yeah I ran from truth, I embraced the lie, Just another broken kid askin’ “why?” [PRE-CHORUS] But then you walked in like a sunrise glow, Lit up the dark I ain’t wanna show, You saw the scars that I tried to hide... And said, “boy, you don’t gotta run this time…” [CHORUS] OOOOHHH— We were fire in the pouring rain, Dancin’ through the hurt and the whiskey pain, From dirt road nights to forever days... Yeah we carved our names where the wild hearts stay! IF WE BLEED, WE BLEED TOGETHER... IF WE BREAK, WE LAST FOREVER... Hold my hand when the lights all fade… We’ll live… we’ll love… ‘Til the static fades… [VERSE] Yeah— You took my chaos, turned it to calm, Put my rage in your delicate palms, Every word you spoke hit deep in my chest, Like maybe for once I could finally rest… I was a wreck with a devil inside, You were the calm when the storms would rise, We built a home outta broken pasts... Who would’ve thought it would actually last? Front porch nights, just you and me, Old guitar hummin’ in Tennessee breeze, Talkin’ ‘bout kids and growin’ old, Watchin’ our story slowly unfold… [BREAKDOWN] I GAVE YOU MY PAIN... YOU GAVE ME LIFE! TURNED MY DARK INTO SOMETHIN’ BRIGHT! FROM THE GRAVE OF WHO I USED TO BE... YOU BUILT A BETTER VERSION OF ME! [BRIDGE] When our hair turns gray… And our bones feel time… Will you still look at me… Like the first night? When the world slows down… And we’re barely there… Will you still say my name… Like a whispered prayer…? [FINAL CHORUS] OOOOHHH.. We were fire in the pouring rain, Turned every loss into love again, From young wild hearts to trembling hands... Yeah we built forever where we stand! EVEN DEATH CAN’T CUT THE TETHER... WE’LL RIDE THIS OUT THROUGH ANY WEATHER... Close your eyes when the reaper calls… I’ll be there… I’ll be there… When the silence falls… [OUTRO] We lived… didn’t we? Til… the static… fades…
