lirik lagu bryce grayson - coppertop kid

i was a copper~top kid in a cornfield town just a speck on the map called bradley i was barely knee~high when grandpa went down don’t remember much, but i miss him badly i had one older brother, one younger in tow, the house was a storm, yeah, the walls used to shake my childhood was nothing but noise and heartache mom worked like a dog, straight as an arrow flies trying to keep the light inside of our eyes

now, dad loved the lord, but he hated the pews he found his salvation in the six o’clock news and a bottle of whiskey, six nights in a row but on sundays, the liquor was a strict no~go he gave god his day, but the rest were for sin and the garage door was open to let the strays in a drunk uncle sleeping on a cot by the door just another lost soul on the concrete floor

and i was running on rust, running on red with a corvette dream in a chaotic head smart enough to know that the system was broken leaving half of the words i had, unspoken just a red~headed boy trying to break the chain learning how to walk between the drops of rain

i was eighteen years old in a hospital room holding grandma’s hand as she met with the gloom that was the year that i ghosted the school they said i was bright, but i played like a fool missed a whole year, but i walked with the class got that piece of paper, told ’em all they could pass we got married young, had a child who died a little angel that waited on the other side. we had two more kids and we tried to hold on but the shadows were long on the front lawn

then the cancer came calling and took dad away i watched a tough man slowly fade into gray mom kept on working, but her heart was so tired she followed him home to the heaven admired i stood by their graves with a wife, not a friend knowing my own road was coming to an end. twenty~two years and the papers were signed, our boys had their exits, leaving their past behind. one chased the golf course green, working irrigation lines, the other found portland, crunching the risk of the times. he cut the cord sharp, won’t talk to his mom, the other still called, but the link offered no calm. the strain on that connection, weighed heavy and far, and i was left floating, clinging to a fading star

i dated a while, just faces and names different perfumes, but the ending the same then i saw her at work, though she wore a gold ring we fell into a fire, a dangerous thing. we traveled the highways, we ran from the truth chasing a feeling we lost in our youth but she fought the bottle, yeah, she loved the wine and i saw the reflection of my father’s time

it got heavy and hard, the glass in her hand, drawing a line in the shifting sand. i saw the reflection of my father’s ghost, on a path that took everything we loved most. she put the bottle down, not with a crash or a shout, but with a weary sigh, letting the darkness out. i had to let go of the chaos and doubt

we kept travelling, but the map looked different now, no desperate escapes, but keeping our vow. we watched mountains turn purple at the start of the day sipped black coffee at diners a thousand miles away. every sunrise became a lesson in grace, every quiet moment was a truth we could face. we went back to the old, broken places we knew, and fixed the foundation, making everything new. the grief of the years, the losses we bore, we learned how to carry them, but not ask for more

the fire on my head is softening to rust, but the love that we built is stronger than dust. i walk through the house now, and hear nothing but calm, a steady rhythm that heals every harm. the old bradley chaos feels centuries gone, the quiet endures from dusk until dawn. the garage door is closed, it holds tools and no fear, no desperate uncle is sleeping out here. i often think back to the two graves i dug, the quiet exhaustion, the slow, bitter tug. but we stopped running circles, we just sat down to wait, and found the true ending, right outside the gate

of sobriety, stillness, and patience and trust— we rose up together, from the ashes and rust. we don’t need a corvette roaring down the line, the sunset that catches the red in my hair, is just golden light now, no anger is there. finally steady, finally cured of the pain. just us, standing steady… after it all. we’re standing steady… after it all
