the music that saves

it starts with a pulse inside my head
the beating of my heart hard as led
can't get the music out of my mind
the rhythm, the words, the melody, the time
melodies of sorrow
melodies of hate
used to be my story
but now that's changed
i found a shining light and a brand new way
to live the rhythm of my life
the words have changed
the story's rearranged
to fit a life lived without pain
but with joy for the music
the music that saves
