[Verse]
Cold nights on the floor no heat in my chest
Every hope I had torn to a threaddy mess
Silent screams bouncing off my empty walls
They caught me when I started to fall
[Chorus]
Never forget the ones who stood by
In the ashes when the fire ran dry
They held the line when all else broke
Lit the darkness with their sparks and spoke
[Verse]
No money no fame no stage no song
They were the spine when I couldn’t feel strong
Grit in the grit rain in the hollow
Showed me the path no one dared to follow
[Chorus]
Never forget the ones who stood by
In the wasteland under the blank sky
Built a castle with their bleeding hands
Carried me from emptiness to stand
[Bridge]
When the world spins gold from rusted pain
And light pours in to the cracks of the rain
Don’t stray don’t lose sight
Of why you fought the good fight
[Chorus]
Never forget the ones who stood by
In the shadows when you couldn’t fly
They’re the soul in every note I scream
Lifted me up turned nightmare to dream
