Melodies melting the pain away
Melodies melting the pain away
I've been making all these songs
But I can't make no sense
Of the long nights
There ain't no end
I've been making all these songs
But I can't make no sense
Of the long nights
There ain't no end
I remember times when I would pray that they would send me heavens way
How could I say that
Twenty seven days flat
Mom lost a father and a son
An abundance of darkness wondering where the sun went
Can't change the facts regardless
Guard my heart
Under these scars I'm a mess
Cleanse my soul getting everything off of my chest
Do the best that I can to hold us down
Roll and ounce to diffuse the pain
Refuse to blame
Anyone other than that man in the mirror
Merely reflecting on my life hoping that can make it clearer
Peer up to my people in the heavens
Can y'all help me figure
The bigger picture
Might need some scripture
Perhaps elixer
Some sort of mixture
Wait
Here's the kicker
I can't cling to this river
So I'm sinking quicker and quicker
I'm sinking quicker and quicker
I've been making all these songs
But I can't make no sense
Of the long nights
There ain't no end
I've been making all these songs
But I can't make no sense
Of the long nights
There ain't no end
Melodies melting the pain away
