(Vibe: Mid-tempo, grounded Country with a little grit | 90 BPM | Lainey Wilson Style) (Verse 1) Lost that job on a Tuesday, lost that man in June People looking at me like I’m a song that’s out of tune They whisper "bless her heart" like I’m a puzzle with a piece missing Like I’m some kind of engine that’s started to hiss and ping But they’re looking at the weather, they ain't looking at the tree They’re seeing where I’ve been, but they ain't seeing me Yeah, I’ve had some bad days, I’ve been in a rut But a door closing on you don’t mean you’re ever shut. (Verse 2) They call it an addiction, they call it a mistake They wanna put a label on every heart-hollow ache They say you gotta fix it, say you gotta find the glue Like you’re some old mirror that the light can't get through But I got my own outlook, I got my own view Life don't happen to you, it happens for you Choices change, and the opinions start to fly But they don’t get to name the spirit living deep inside. (Chorus) Life knocked loud, but it never took me down I’m a lot of things, but I’m still standing my ground You can call it damage, I just call it living Every breath I’m taking is a gift I'm being given Yeah, I’ve been bent, baby, I’ve been bruised I’ve been the one that won and the one that had to lose But I don't need a mend, and I don't need a token I’ve been a lot of things, but I ain't never been broken. (Bridge) Everybody’s got a story that they’re scared to tell Between the "Heavens above" and the "living in hell" But an opinion is a shadow, and an experience is a light You can’t judge the whole day by one single night We all need a hand, we all need a guide But you don't gotta fix what was never wrong inside. (Final Chorus) Life knocked loud, but it never took me down I’m a lot of things, but I’m still standing my ground You can call it damage, I just call it living Every breath I’m taking is a gift I'm being given Yeah, I’ve been bent, baby, I’ve been bruised I’ve been the one that won and the one that had to lose But I don't need a mend, and I don't need a token I’ve been a lot of things, but I ain't never been broken. (Outro) (Acoustic guitar strums out with a steady beat) Never needed fixing. No, not me. Just living... Unbroken. (Final resonant pluck)
