The Songs That Saved Me

Verse 1 In a trailer’s shadow, where the silence screamed, Found a rusted guitar, chased a broken dream. Johnny’s voice of hurt cut through my pain, Waylon’s rebel soul kept me sane. Chorus Songs that saved me, pullin’ me through, Truth in the darkness, love that’s true. From the grave’s cold call to a heart’s soft plea, These old songs, they’re savin’ me. Verse 2 Stapleton’s gravel wrapped my scars in grace, Childers sang the hills where I found my place. Adele’s fire burned my doubts away, Each note a light in my lonesome day. Chorus Songs that saved me, pullin’ me through, Truth in the darkness, love that’s true. From the grave’s cold call to a heart’s soft plea, These old songs, they’re savin’ me. Bridge “Hurt” taught me wounds can sing out loud, “Cover Me Up” showed love’s the proudest sound. “O Death” whispered life’s a fleeting flame, Their truths carved my heart, gave me my name. Chorus Songs that saved me, pullin’ me through, Truth in the darkness, love that’s true. From the grave’s cold call to a heart’s soft plea, These old songs, they’re savin’ me. Outro Now I strum my truth ‘neath a lonesome sky, Carryin’ their echoes till the day I die. Through the pain and love, their voices I see, These old songs, forever savin’ me.
