My Gratitude
How did you get in my heart?
Your songs are my life
Being sung in that beautiful voice
So dark but not fearful
Comforting, like you're there by me
I struggle everyday to continue
Trying to forget the lies
Always wishing to be different
Someone, anyone else
But then I hear you again
Not my angel but my savior
And even though you don't know me
You fill my heart with strength
I look at you on my wall
Your piercing eyes that seem to know
Your messy hair I love
Everything about you comforts me
From the way you hold your guitar
To the way you look when you smile
Ane then I know I'll make it
Because of you, Johnny, I'll survive.
