[Verse 1]
Packed my shirt in a box
Left the ring in a drawer
Signed my name one last time
At that courthouse door
Thought love would stay put
Like a chair by the bed
But every promise I held
Turned to dust in my head
[Pre-Chorus]
I been praying in the dark
Been bleeding through the years
Every hand I reached for
Slipped right out my fears
[Chorus]
I’m still here, still here
With a broken-open heart
I’m still here, still here
Though my life fell apart
(Still here)
If you ask me how
I made it through the fire
I was going down, then I met Jesus
And He pulled me out alive
[Verse 2]
Three times, three rings
Three doors shut on me
One woman, one goodbye
One more empty seat
I moved into a room
With a thrift-store lamp
Learned how to eat alone
And stand where I stand
[Pre-Chorus]
I washed my own old plates
I fixed the busted screen
Tried to build a home
Out of barely anything
[Chorus]
I’m still here, still here
With a broken-open heart
I’m still here, still here
Though my life fell apart
(Still here)
If you ask me how
I made it through the fire
I was going down, then I met Jesus
And He pulled me out alive
[Bridge]
I found Him by a river
In a Sunday morning song
Not in some gold cathedral
Just where my grief belonged
He said, “Son, lay it down”
So I laid my shame in dust
And for the first time in my life
I felt my own name come back to me
[Chorus]
I’m still here, still here
With a broken-open heart
I’m still here, still here
Though my life fell apart
(Still here)
If you ask me how
I made it through the fire
I was going down, then I met Jesus
And He pulled me out alive
[Outro]
Out alive
Out alive
Jesus found me
And I’m out alive
