Still Here

Lyrics
Intro – Raw Guitar Riff
Verse 1
I had a dream I burned it all
My job, my house, my friends who call
Only when they’re drunk at two
Yeah, I see what they do
Tried to quit, I always fail
Built my pride from paper mail
Stared into the bathroom light
Told myself I’m still alright
Chorus – Shouted, like a chant
I’m still here!
Yeah, I’m still breathin’
Might be broke, might be bleedin’
But I never disappeared
Say it loud, say it clear:
I’m still here!
Verse 2
I stitched my hope from busted strings
My heroes died in shitty scenes
I talk in jokes, I laugh too hard
To hide the bruises on my heart
I’m not a poet, not a saint
I flinch each time they use my name
But I get up, I take the hit
'Cause pain don’t mean you have to quit
Chorus – Bigger, angrier, louder
I’m still here!
Yeah, I’m still kickin’
On my own, still non-fiction
Ain’t no saint, but I ain’t fake
You can’t kill what you didn’t make
I’m still here!
Bridge – spoken over a guitar break
They said I’d fade by twenty-five
They said I’d drown before I’d drive
But I’m still scraping sky and floor
Still writing names behind the door
Final Chorus – Explode, full band
I’m still here!
Yeah, I’m still runnin’
Still got scars but still ain’t done and
I got rage, I got gears
I got blood, I got years
I’m still here!
(Say it loud)
I’m still here!
(Say it loud)
I’m still here!
Outro – Guitars feedback, fading into muffled heartbeat drum
