ON THE ROCKS

verse 1

There's a silence, locked up in my mind, yeah
A kind of emptiness that keeps me so confided, yeah
I don't even know myself, I can't find my way
To the door of my own heart, don't know what to say
The ground beneath is slipping there's nothing to hold
In this dark alleyway I feel like I've grown cold
But somewhere deep, there's a flicker that remains
A tiny flame through all the pain that gives life a new change

chorus 1

I've been on the rocks, broken and bare,
I'm just trying to breathe, gasping for air.
In the stillness of the night, I still hear the sound,
Of my heart beating fast, pulling me back around.
I've been on the rocks, broken and bare,
I'm just trying to breathe, gasping for air.
In the stillness of the night, I still hear the sound,
Of my heart beating fast, pulling me back around.

bridge

I've seen the bottom where the soul falls asleep
There's something inside me I'm always gonna keep
It's the fight to rise when you got no strength
To find yourself again, to go the extra length

verse 2

When you hit the bottom there's nowhere to fall man
The echoes inside feel like, nothing at all man
I've lost my way, no I cannot feel my soul, no
But I know there's a way to make it whole again, no
Sometimes you've got to break, just to rebuild
To rise from all the ashes when the heart has been stilled
I'm finding my own breath it seems to take one step at a time
With every crack that breaks forth, I see the climb

chorus 2

I've been on the rocks, broken and bare,
I'm just trying to breathe, gasping for air.
In the stillness of the night, I still hear the sound,
Of my heart beating fast, pulling me back around.
I've been on the rocks, broken and bare,
I'm just trying to breathe, gasping for air.
In the stillness of the night, I still hear the sound,
Of my heart beating fast, pulling me back around.

outro

I've been down so low, but I'm coming alive,
In the quiet of night, I hear my heart survive.
Just step by step, I'ma rise from the ground,
Finding my own strength where I was once, was a bound.
