Close my eyes,
Hear the band coming together.
Hitting very note perfectly.
Each one in perfect harmony.
It calms me so.
I can nearly see every strum.
Feel the bass,
It's taking me away.
Drying each of my tears,
Bringing me into new daylight.
Washing away the pain,
And keeping me sane.
Saving my life,
From so many things.
Listening to the words,
Steering me from the hurt.
The drums follow the beat,
Of my heart.
The guitar following the lead.
The bass falling in line.
The voice bringing each together.
Every strum,
Every beat,
Saving my life.
Giving me an extra breath,
One I never expected to breathe.
Another heart beat,
I never expected to experience.
All falling in line with each other,
Oblivious to their heroics.
Giving me hope to live another day.
All because this simple tune,
These simple notes,
Just took my pain away.
