[Verse 1]
Hands on the wheel
Eyes on the floor
I was counting every crack
Just to dodge the war inside
You pulled me close
Said my name out loud
Cut through every bitter voice
Like you tore the sky in stripes
[Chorus]
You helped me out the dark (yeah)
Lit a fire in these scars
Something from the start
You always have my heart
Hard times made us steel
Now I finally feel
You saved me, you saved me
Thank you every day I get
[Verse 2]
Nights on the couch
Shaking in my skin
You held all my broken pieces
Like they’d always fit that way
You didn’t flinch
At the worst of me
Stood your ground in the storm
Till the storm got swept away
[Chorus]
You helped me out the dark (oh)
Lit a fire in these scars
Something from the start
You always have my heart
Hard times made us steel
Now I finally feel
You saved me, you saved me
Thank you every day I get
[Bridge]
If the world goes black again
I know where the light begins
Right there in your open hands
(hey) I’m not afraid
[Drum Solo Break]
[Drums erupt into a furious solo over a held guitar chord, then guitars crash back in on the downbeat]
[Chorus]
You helped me out the dark
Lit a fire in these scars
Something from the start
You always have my heart
Hard times made us steel
Now I finally feel
You saved me, you saved me
Thank you every day I get (yeah)
Thank you every day I get
