[Verse 1] Dust on my boots And a bruise on my pride I took that hit Then I took it in stride Your name cut deep Like a knife through pine Now I walk hard With a storm in my spine [Pre-Chorus] I feel it rising Under my skin Every hard mile Pulls me back in I was cracked open But I won’t fold I got a fire In a tarnished soul [Chorus] Lightning in my veins Lightning in my veins I shake, I break, I burn again Lightning in my veins Lightning in my veins I’m coming back like a freight train [Verse 2] Mama said “boy Don’t you carry that pain” But I wore it proud Like a rusted chain Barroom ghosts At the edge of town Swear they heard me When the amps came down [Pre-Chorus] I feel it rising Under my skin Every hard mile Pulls me back in I was cracked open But I won’t fold I got a fire In a tarnished soul [Chorus] Lightning in my veins Lightning in my veins I shake, I break, I burn again Lightning in my veins Lightning in my veins I’m coming back like a freight train [Bridge] Let the sky split Let it roar my name I was made for the spark And the lonely flame When the night hits back I don’t run away I spit out hurt And I stand in the rain [Chorus] Lightning in my veins Lightning in my veins I shake, I break, I burn again Lightning in my veins Lightning in my veins I’m coming back like a freight train
