Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The screen door creaks like it always does,
But tonight it feels heavier, stained with dust.
Mama's hands tremble as she sets down the phone,
The words she just heard cut straight to the bone.
[Prechorus]
The wind through the pines—it carries a weight,
Like it knows our hearts just broke today.
[Chorus]
When shadows fall on the porchlight glow,
And the clock moves slow, but the pain won’t go,
We gather close, though we feel so small,
Grief brought its boots, walked right through us all.
[Verse 2]
Daddy’s chair sits empty, quiet and still,
His work boots by the door, they always will.
The Bible’s open to Psalms, page torn at the seam,
Like it’s holding the prayers of a broken dream.
[Prechorus]
The stars outside—they don’t seem to shine,
Even heaven feels distant tonight.
[Chorus]
When shadows fall on the porchlight glow,
And the clock moves slow, but the pain won’t go,
We gather close, though we feel so small,
Grief brought its boots, walked right through us all.
