[Verse 1]
Boot prints in the drywall
Blood rust on my rings
Every scar a sermon
'Bout worshipping the swing
I drank my rage for breakfast
Spat it on my friends
Built a throne of broken glass
Dared the world to end
[Chorus]
I’m chugging into love again (yeah)
Let the past burn out in the tailpipe flame
Hands off the trigger
Hand in your hand
Still loud
Still wild
Just a different man
I’m chugging into love again
From a war I never had to win
You’re the anthem in this shattered head
I leave the violence
Keep the shred
[Verse 2]
You walked through my wreckage
Glass crunch at your feet
Didn’t flinch at the warning signs
Didn’t turn from the heat
You said
“You’re more than fury
More than swinging steel”
Now my heart downstrokes in rhythm
To the way you heal
[Chorus]
I’m chugging into love again (hey)
Let the past burn out in the tailpipe flame
Hands off the trigger
Hand in your hand
Still loud
Still wild
Just a different man
I’m chugging into love again
From a war I never had to win
You’re the anthem in this shattered head
I leave the violence
Keep the shred
[Bridge]
I used to pray for impact
Now I pray for you
Every breath a breakdown
Crashing into truth
I’m still chains and leather
But the link’s to you
Still a storm
Still weather
But I’m breaking blue (breaking through)
[Chorus]
I’m chugging into love again
Let the past burn out in the tailpipe flame
Hands off the trigger
Hand in your hand
Still loud
Still wild
Just a different man
I’m chugging into love again (again)
From a war I never had to win
You’re the anthem in this shattered head
I leave the violence
Keep the shred
[Outro]
Yeah
I leave the violence
Keep the shred instead
Heart like a hammer
But it beats for you instead
