Lose Everything

Verse 1

Two funerals in one grey year

I kept the casket flowers on the dash

Poured the whiskey on the ache instead

Now the county holds me for the crash

Pre-Chorus

I could drown it all again

I could burn the whole thing down

But something in me wants to stay

Chorus

I had to lose it all to find a hand to hold

Lose it all to finally hear the call

Strip the walls and let the ceiling fall

You have to lose everything before you have anything

Anything at all

Post-Chorus

(Oh-oh) anything at all

(Oh-oh) anything

Verse 2

Momma's voice is a hallway now

My sister's laugh is a locked-up room

I sat in the cold of a holding cell

And prayed a prayer I thought I'd outgrown

Pre-Chorus

I could chase the numb again

I could let the quiet win

But something in me wants to live

Chorus

I had to lose it all to find a hand to hold

Lose it all to finally hear the call

Strip the walls and let the ceiling fall

You have to lose everything before you have anything

Anything at all

Post-Chorus

(Oh-oh) anything at all

(Oh-oh) anything

Bridge

Faith came back like rain on dry ground

Faith came back when I had nothing left

Not a bargain not a bribe

Just a broken man who finally said yes

Chorus

I had to lose it all to find a hand to hold

Lose it all to finally hear the call

Strip the walls and let the ceiling fall

You have to lose everything before you have anything

Anything at all

Post-Chorus

(Oh-oh) anything at all

(Oh-oh) anything at all

(Oh-oh) anything at all
