The Morning Light is Mine

[Intro]
[Verse]
Cracked pews and Sunday dust
Iron gates turned to rust
I left that town behind
To heal my weary mind
No more whispers in the hall
I’m standing tall
[Pre-Chorus]
Gas station sunrises on the road
Shedding every heavy load
The highway sang a low tune
Underneath a paper moon
I felt the shift inside
Nowhere left to hide
[Chorus]
I’m waking up in this room
Watching all the lilies bloom
No more shadows on the floor
I don’t live there anymore
The Wurlitzer plays so sweet
I’m finally back on my feet
This morning light is mine
Yeah, it’s mine
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, it’s mine
Feeling so divine
Everything is fine
[Verse]
Scuffed boxes by the bed
New dreams inside my head
Handwritten names on the tape
Planning out my great escape
I hear the choir through the wall
I’m answering the call
[Pre-Chorus]
Muted strings and a steady beat
Feeling the rhythm in the street
The trombone starts to moan
I’m never truly alone
I found a brand new grace
In this sacred space
[Chorus]
I’m waking up in this room
Watching all the lilies bloom
No more shadows on the floor
I don’t live there anymore
The Wurlitzer plays so sweet
I’m finally back on my feet
This morning light is mine
Yeah, it’s mine
[Bridge]
I felt the grief for a while
Now I’m wearing a smile
Hallelujah in the kitchen sink
I’ve got time to stop and think
The spirit moves in the quiet
After the emotional riot
I’m whole again
Where I begin
[Breakdown]
Brushed snare on the skin
Let the new life begin
Soft guitar in the air
I’ve cast away every care
[Verse]
The coffee’s steaming in the cup
I’m never giving up
That small town is a ghost
I’m the one I love the most
I built these walls with pride
With nothing left to hide
[Chorus]
I’m waking up in this room
Watching all the lilies bloom
No more shadows on the floor
I don’t live there anymore
The Wurlitzer plays so sweet
I’m finally back on my feet
This morning light is mine
Yeah, it’s mine
[Post-Chorus]
It’s mine, all mine
See how I shine
Walking the line
[Outro]
