Grain of Ink

Recover to me

[intro]


[verse 1]

You didn’t put those bones in the dirt

But I’ll help you dig them up.

I know you’re trying to stay sober

Just tell me how to fill your cup.

So put the shovel in my hand

And I’look help you break new ground.

You said you used to cut your skin

Will you show me the scars you found?


[pre-chorus]

It’s hard to carry all the things you’ve tried

Just promise me you’ll cry.


[chorus]

When you wake up

I’ll be sitting by my phone

Waiting for your call to let me know

When you make it

I’ll be glad but to always know

That you made it through the dark.

That you made it through.


[verse 2]

The past will try to call you back

A voice you used to know.

But every grave you’ve left behind

Ain’t a place you have to go.

I know the weight don’t leave you chest,

It just settles in your bones.

But if the night still feels endless,

You don’t have to be alone.


[pre-chorus]

I’ll be there when you need me every time

Just promise me you’ll try.


[chorus]

When you wake up

I’ll be sitting by my phone

Waiting for your call to let me know

When you make it

I’ll be glad but to always know

That you made it through the dark.

That you made it through.


[verse 3]

If the road keeps pulling you under

If the waves don’t let you go

I’ll wade out into the water

I won’t let you sink alone


[bridge]

I’ll hold the lantern

I’ll hold the rope

I’ll be the hand that pulls you close

You don’t have to say a word

I already know

I already know


[chorus]

When you wake up

I’love be sitting by my phone

Waiting for your call to let me know

When you make it

I’ll be glad but to always know

That you made it through the dark

That you made it through.
