[Verse 1]
Shame is a river
When I cross its waters
I always sink
Hope's on the other side
But I got guilt tied like bricks to my feet

[Chorus]
I was fifteen when I had my first drink
Numb on the sofa across from a shrink
Keeping my mouth shut and grinding my teeth
I got away as far as I could
But that didn't do me any good
This hurricane's within me

[Verse 2]
Love is a sunrise
Where's the light to
Eclipse my grief
Grace speaks in silence
I've been quiet but only hear my own screams

[Chorus]
I was fifteen when I had my first drink
Numb on the sofa across from a shrink
Keeping my mouth shut and grinding my teeth
I got away as far as I could
But that didn't do me any good
This hurricane's within me
[Verse 3]
I'm a force of nature
Keep your saviors
There's no prayer to reconcile me
Paint me a picture
One where I have
Finally cried myself clean
Show me a future
One where I am
Forgiven and free

[Outro]
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
Oh no
