Scary Poems for the Soul

Saving Grace

I walk in drum beats
I speak in song
I talk in lyrics
So I can tell you what's wrong

I put in my headphones
To tune out this awful world
I listen to every cord
Music is like a cast mold

To protect me from hurt
To protect me from pain
To help me live on
To get me through my day

They sing about depression
They sing about being mad
They sing about being happy
They sing about being sad

Music is an escape
A portal from this land
A chance to change your fate
Every lyric from every band

Like an angel from above
To take me from this place
Music is my life
It is my saving grace
