Jason
Smith Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I know it's been a long day
Yes you're feeling kinda down
When all the others oppose you
You try to feel at home with this sound
I know you daydream about the future
When you won't feel like a motherfuckin' loser
It's just a simple melody
That'll make you feel alright

It's keepin' me alive
Ba da ba ba ba da bah

You can match the mood of any situation
You can bring some peace to any altercation
Sometimes I swear the music can do more
Than any person place or thing
Sometimes I swear the music can bring more than what we thought it'd ever bring
And I cannot feel a thing

But it's keeping me alive
Ba da ba ba ba da bah

Sometimes these four walls
I feel them closing in
I'm under pressure
I feel my chest cave in but I know
That this won't be forever
Temporary madness from the pain
And the pleasure
My medicine and I use it
Past the broken bones and refuse it
The savior of me, savior of we
Never miss a dose of a melody

Past the broken bones and the bruises
It's music
The Savior of me, savior of we
Never miss a dose of a melody




Right before I sleep so my dreams I see
I'm finally feeling free
