Grayscale - Kept Me Alive Lyrics

Grayscale - Kept Me Alive Lyrics 

You and I grew up fast in the thick of it

In bad homes with the same old narratives

With loud voices and prescribed medicines

High, we skipped stones, yeah it felt so American

You're so pretty but don't try a little bit

You grew up more and healed better than I ever did

Still, you left the light on for me, I won't forget

Worried sick, knew I was caught in things I shouldn't have been

When it's all lowlights

And my mind is so quiet

You are my one lifeline

You kept me alive, and I meant it

Put your heart on the line when I needed

Someone pulls me close

Bury my head in your bones

Found me and carried me home

You kept me alive

And that face you give me after I make you laugh

Is enough for me to cry when I'm hanging by a thread

When I hold onto my trauma that's irrelevant

You come behind me and hold me in your arms again

You're beautiful and you don't even act it, no

Like the smell of rain on countryside sediment

Like hollow light through the wintertime weariness

I'm so sorry I dragged you through all my petulance

When it's all lowlights

And my mind is so quiet

You are my one lifeline

You kept me alive, and I meant it

Put your heart on the line when I needed

Someone pulls me close

Bury my head in your bones

Found me and carried me home

You kept me alive

(You kept me alive)

Someone pulls me close

Bury my head in your bones

You found me, carried me home

You kept me alive and I meant it

Put your heart on the line when I needed

Someone pulls me close

Bury my head in your bones

Found me and carried me home

You kept me alive
