Safe From the Harm

⸻

I was numb off a pill, tryna sleep through the pain

Xanax dreams got me lost in the rain

I was runnin’ from myself, now I’m runnin’ to you

Had to put the drugs down just to tell you the truth

Faded every night, white knuckles on the wheel

Pop another just to fake how I feel

Empty bottles in my room, broken thoughts in my head

I was dyin’ slow, tryna wish I was dead

Mama said I’m different, I don’t listen no more

Heart cold, soul tired, feet stuck to the floor

Chasin’ that high like it owed me some peace

But it only made a bigger hole inside of me

I was drownin’ in a life I didn’t choose

Every pill felt like another excuse

I was numb off a pill, tryna sleep through the pain

Xanax dreams got me lost in the rain

I was runnin’ from myself, now I’m runnin’ to you

Had to put the drugs down just to tell you the truth

Then you walked in my life like a light in the dark

Saw the mess in my chest, still you stayed with my heart

You ain’t try to save me, you just showed me the way

How to feel somethin’ real, how to make it through days

I don’t need that escape, don’t need chemical love

When you hold my hand, that’s enough

I still fight my demons, yeah they call me at night

But I choose you every time, yeah I’m winnin’ that fight

If I fall, don’t let me fade

Remind me why I chose this pain

I quit the pills, I quit the lies

I found my life in your eyes

She the love of my life, yeah I know that for sure

Every scar on my heart, she been helpin’ me heal

I was lost in the night, she showed me what’s real

I don’t need any drugs, I just need how she feels

I love her so much it be hurtin’ sometimes

Never felt peace in a world so unkind

When I look in her eyes, all the noise disappears

All my doubts, all my fears, they don’t live over here

I was broken, unstable, had death on my mind

She held me together when I came undone inside

If the world turns against me, I’m still gonna fight

‘Cause the love that she gives me feel better than life

No more numb, I wanna feel every scar

Even broken hearts can turn into stars

I was lost in the drugs, now I’m lost in her arms

Found the love of my life, now I’m safe from the harm

If I lose everything, I still won

As long as she knows she the one

I don’t need heaven above

I found it in her love
