I'm Just Here

LYRICS: [INTRO] Yeah… Ain’t no map… ain’t no plan… [VERSE 1] Boots in the mud, same road, same drag Sky look sick like it caught somethin’ bad Banjo cryin’ like it know my name But I don’t answer, I just walk through the rain Dust on my teeth, static in my head Voices on the wire say “you ain’t dead” Lights flicker off in the far-off town Like the world forgot to keep itself wound No preacher, no sign, no savior near Just a broken rhythm sayin’ “stay right here” I ain’t runnin’, I ain’t lost, I ain’t scared I just keep sayin’… I’m just here [HOOK] I’m just here No crown, no throne, no fear Just a pulse in the dark, still clear I don’t lead, I don’t steer I’m just here I’m just here Dust line, dry bones, cold air World burn slow, I don’t care Ain’t a reason, ain’t a prayer I’m just here [VERSE 2] Radio hiss with a voice that stutters Talkin’ ‘bout ghosts in the wires and gutters Says the sky peeled back last night Saw somethin’ movin’ behind that light I laughed low, kept walkin’ straight Seen too much to react to fate Every step got weight like stone But I ain’t carryin’ nothin’ I own Banjo pluck like a heartbeat skip Kick drum drag like a sinking ship Guitar scream from a rusted rail Like the end of the world on a broken trail You look for meaning, I look at dirt You look for healing, I measure hurt Ain’t no answer waitin’ up there Just me standin’… I’m just here [HOOK] I’m just here No crown, no throne, no fear Just a pulse in the dark, still clear I don’t lead, I don’t steer I’m just here [BRIDGE] You hear that? That ain’t silence… that’s somethin’ breathin’… World keep spinnin’ like it don’t know why Stars blink out, nobody ask why If there’s a door, I ain’t seen it yet If there’s a god… he ain’t spoke to me yet So I stand… In the hum… In the drag… In the air… [OUTRO] I’m just here… Not chosen… not cursed… not rare… Just a shadow in the glare… Still breathin’… still there… …I’m just here…
