[Verse 1]
My life got bent out of shape
I kept the pain in a cup
Drinkin' was the fast lane
Till it wasn't enough
Mama and Daddy were hard
Hands cold, words like glass
I learned to flinch at a tone
And I learned to live too fast
I play games to go numb
Thumbs moving, mind out the room
If I stay too long in my head
I start hearing that old wound
So I chase a little relief
Anything to blur the frame
But the hurt still knows my name
Yeah, the hurt still knows my name
[Pre-Chorus]
Still, I got one small grace
A roof when the night comes down
One bed in a quiet place
I can finally put my weight down
[Chorus]
I got a place to lay my head
(A place to lay my head)
I got a place to lay my head
When the world goes red
I been broke, I been bruised
Still I make it to the bed
I got a place to lay my head
(A place to lay my head)
[Verse 2]
I don't pretend I'm all good
I just know I'm still here
Some days I stare at the floor
Some days I fight back tears
I took the long way through hell
With a bottle and a screen
Tryna outrun what was done
Tryna live inside a dream
But I ain't that kid anymore
I can name what I survived
The scars don't get the last word
I'm still learning how to be alive
[Pre-Chorus]
Still, I got one small grace
A roof when the night comes down
One bed in a quiet place
I can finally put my weight down
[Chorus]
I got a place to lay my head
(A place to lay my head)
I got a place to lay my head
When the world goes red
I been broke, I been bruised
Still I make it to the bed
I got a place to lay my head
(A place to lay my head)
[Bridge]
Maybe healing don't come quick
Maybe it comes in steps
Maybe peace is just this:
I made it through today again
[Final Chorus]
I got a place to lay my head
(A place to lay my head)
I got a place to lay my head
When the world goes red
I been broke, I been bruised
Still I make it to the bed
I got a place to lay my head
(A place to lay my head)
