They like what I sing

Woke up to the river hummin' low and mean
Yeah, the river kept singin' like it knew where I'd been
Every laugh in the night got sorrow underneath
Like the past got hands and it's grabbin' at me

Old ghosts dancin' underneath the neon light
People smilin' hard just to make it through the night
You can hear broken hearts in the sound of the band
Still they stomp their feet like they still got a chance

Cold wind blowin' through the broken pines
Moonlight shakin' like these hands of mine
Every old mistake still rattles these chains
And the night keeps whisperin' my name

We sing!
Yeah, we sing through the pain!
Raise our cups while the sky pours rain!
Ain't no peace gonna wash these scars!
Still we shine like broken stars!

Saw a young man cry with a grin on his face
Like he learned how to dance with his own disgrace
And the wind through the trees whispered soft and slow
You can't outrun what your soul already knows

Some people love just to keep from fallin' apart
Some people laugh with a graveyard in their heart
And every midnight prayer
Turns to smoke in the dark
Still the choir keeps singin'
Like a fire in the dark

Ooh
Hear that old train moan
Sounds like every lonely soul
Tryna find its way back home

We sing!
Yeah, we sing through the pain!
Hold each other while the world goes insane!
No, these wounds may never heal!
But the blues makes broken people feel!

Mmm
And the night still remembers our names
