[Verse 1] Found her shakin' in a box by the backroad store Rain in her eyes, mud on the floor Little heart beatin' like a kick drum fast Tag said “Baby,” but she ain’t got a past Wrapped her in my hoodie, held her like a dream Fur on my jeans, claws in my seams Told the clerk, “Put this on my soul, not the bill” Drove off slow, whole cab sittin' still [Chorus] I rescued a puppy, kept her close to me But every long night, I start to think Who’s really savin’ who when I can’t even breathe Did I rescue her Or did she rescue me Yeah, did I rescue her Or did she rescue me [Verse 2] Used to drink too hard, sleep through the day Phone on silent, friends all drifted away She scratched the couch, then scratched my pain Dragged me up, out the dark like a chain Now it’s boots by the door, leash hangin' on the hook Sunrise walks down that old creek look She jumps in my lap when my thoughts get loud Tiny little heartbeat talkin’ me down [Chorus] I rescued a puppy, kept her close to me But every long night, I start to think Who’s really savin’ who when I can’t even breathe Did I rescue her Or did she rescue me Yeah, did I rescue her Or did she rescue me [Bridge] Late-night tears, she just lays her head Right on my chest like, “Get outta your head” (hey) If love’s a lifeline, she threw it first Small set of paws on my heavy heart’s dirt [Chorus] I rescued a puppy, kept her close to me But every long night, I start to think Who’s really savin’ who when I can’t even breathe Did I rescue her Or did she rescue me Yeah, did I rescue her Or did she rescue me
