Broken Strings Rising

Old scars from the past still sting

Hiding them deep under everything

Late nights scribbling words on a page

Turning the hurt into a stage (yeah)

The silence broke

when the strings rang true

Every note

pulling the old pain through

I turn the pain into power chords

Scream it out loud till it hits the floor

Music's my fight, my only way through

Healing the boy with the songs I knew

(ooh yeah)

Schoolyard laughs cut like a blade

Home was a place where the colors fade

But in the garage with the lights turned low

The amp turned up and the demons go (haha)

I turn the pain into power chords

Scream it out loud till it hits the floor

Music's my fight, my only way through

Healing the boy with the songs I knew

(ooh yeah)

No more running from what came before The chords break chains that

held the door

I turn the pain into power chords

Scream it out loud till it hits the floor

Music's my fight, my only way through

Healing the boy with the songs I knew (yeah!)

Fading riffs into the night
