My Refuge Lyrics

I was drawn to the bright light 

To see the cobwebs on the wall

I sang on stages world over

From the famous to the small 

The songs that I was singing 

I was singing from the heart 

But the life I was living 

Complicated from the start 

I was drawn to the wrong roads

And the bottle became my friend 

I held its neck so tightly 

In case the flow would end

I made some poor decisions 

Hurt love ones along the way 

I am here to say I’m sorry 

I regret things every day 

I sang through my troubles 

I drank through the pain

Music was my refuge 

Music kept me sane

People thought they owned me 

To do what I was told

Music was my rainbow 

My constant crock of gold 

I was drawn to the self doubts 

They were messing with my head

I thought booze was the answer 

But made it worse instead 

I know people love me

And that has kept me strong 

But it’s not about me anyways 

The hope is in the song

I sang through my troubles 

I drank through the pain

Music was my refuge 

Music kept me sane

People thought they owned me 

To do what I was told

Music was my rainbow 

My constant crock of gold 

I sang through my troubles 

I drank through the pain

Music was my refuge 

Music kept me sane

People thought they owned me 

To do what I was told

Music was my rainbow 

My constant crock of gold
