Breaking In
Breaking In: A Melody of Life's Refinement and Resilience
Lyrics
A beat up old guitar can tell a story
A worn-out guitar has a tale to share.
A story so much bigger than my own
The guitar's story transcends the singer's own experiences.
When I strum a chord
When playing a chord, the singer praises God.
It sends praises to the Lord
The songs within guide the singer home spiritually.
And the songs inside will guide me to my home
Time's impact is felt, leading the singer to prayer.
I can feel the toll that time is taking
The toll of time makes the singer kneel.
It’s making me fall on my knees again
Promises and dreams break, but the singer perseveres.
Promises and dreams will keep on breaking
Despite setbacks, the singer persists in breaking in.
As they do, I’ll keep on breaking in
Lines around the eyes symbolize life experiences.
And the lines around my eyes could write a love song
Scars tell of God's refining work in our lives.
That would put the songs of Solomon to shame
Gazing into the eternal flame brings understanding.
All the scars that we acquire
Time's toll continues, leading to humility.
Will tell of God’s refining fire
Promises and dreams break, yet the singer endures.
As we gaze into that ever burning flame
Bones' aching is a universal anthem of life.
I can feel the toll that time is taking
Sorrow accompanies pain, but love persists.
It’s making me fall on my knees again
Weary voices sing a song of endurance.
Promises and dreams will keep on breaking
Time's toll humbles, leading to spiritual reflection.
As they do, I’ll keep on breaking in
Promises and dreams break, yet the singer persists.
The aching in my bones is an anthem
Love remains steadfast despite life's challenges.
An anthem that we’ve know all along
The ache in bones echoes a known universal truth.
There is sorrow in the pain
Sorrow coexists with pain, but love endures.
But it’s love that will remain
Weary voices continue singing the enduring song.
As the sore and weary voices sing the song
Time's toll leads to humility and prayer.
I can feel the toll that time is taking
Promises and dreams break, yet the singer persists.
It’s making me fall on my knees again
Time's toll deepens humility, leading to prayer.
Promises and dreams will keep on breaking
Promises and dreams may break, but the singer endures.
As they do, I’ll keep on breaking in
Despite challenges, the singer remains resilient.
As they do, I’ll keep on breaking in
The singer persists in breaking into life's challenges.
