[Verse 1] I split my lip on the screen door frame Mom’s ashtray full of yesterday The sink won’t drain, the dog won’t stay Same dead clock, same painted gray My work shirt hangs like a used-up flag Stained with oil and a grocery bag I hear the train cut through the yard Like it knows how to leave this hard [Pre-Chorus] Say I’m fine Say it slow Keep it down Don’t let it show [Chorus] I’m still here Under the rust I’m still here Spitting the dust Hold me down I’ll come apart I’m still here With a broken heart (I’m still here) (I’m still here) [Verse 2] Your photo’s bent in the glovebox seam Half a smile in a nicotine dream I drove past home with the radio off Let the tires sing what the voices lost There’s a hole in the fence by the busted pine That’s where we carved our names one time Now the wind just takes, the paint just peels And every good thing forgets how it heals [Pre-Chorus] Say I’m fine Say it low Keep your hand On the radio [Chorus] I’m still here Under the rust I’m still here Spitting the dust Hold me down I’ll come apart I’m still here With a broken heart (I’m still here) (I’m still here) [Bridge] If I go quiet, don’t mistake that for gone I was built from the nights that went too long The porch light flickers, the hallway bends I learn the shape of hurt again [Final Chorus] I’m still here Under the rust I’m still here Spitting the dust Hold me down I’ll come apart I’m still here With a broken heart I’m still here Under the rust I’m still here Spitting the dust (I’m still here) (I’m still here)
