Lyrics
[Intro]
(Yeah, yeah)
Underneath that southern sky,
Where the shadows come alive,
I've got a tale to tell, oh,
(Confessions on my mind)
[Verse 1]
Standing at the edge of my hometown,
Dusty roads and memories all around,
I can hear the whispers in the breeze,
Ghosts of my past, they won't let me be.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
(Oh, oh) Every corner’s got a story,
(Yeah) Every scar a piece of glory,
I’m looking for redemption,
In this silent, solemn tension.
[Chorus 1]
I’m at the crossroads, where the truth unfolds,
Facing the fears that my heart still holds,
Seeking forgiveness in the dead of night,
Underneath the stars, I find my light.
(Oh, oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
Saw my first love by the old oak tree,
Carved our names, now it’s just history,
Promises we made under the moon’s glow,
Now they haunt me, won’t let go.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
(Whoa, whoa) The choices that we made,
(Yeah) The prices that we paid,
I’m seeking out forgiveness,
In this silence, I bear witness.
[Chorus 2]
I’m at the crossroads, where the past meets the present,
Trying to let go, but I’m still adolescent,
Searching for a way to make things right,
Underneath the stars, my guiding light.
(Oh, oh yeah)
[Verse 3]
The preacher man says there’s still a chance,
To break free from my own circumstance,
But I’m tangled in the lies I’ve spun,
Running from the man I’ve become.
[Pre-Chorus 3]
(Oh, oh) Every sin, every lie,
(Yeah) Written in the southern sky,
I’m looking for salvation,
In this quiet contemplation.
[Chorus 3]
I’m at the crossroads, where my demons lie,
Facing the truth, no more alibis,
Trying to find peace in the dead of night,
Underneath the stars, I’ll find my fight.
(Oh, oh yeah)
[Verse 4]
Here’s to the friends I’ve left behind,
And the dreams I never could find,
I’m a drifter on this lonely road,
Bearing the weight of my heavy load.
[Pre-Chorus 4]
(Whoa, whoa) The road ahead looks long,
(Yeah) But I’ve gotta stay strong,
I’m searching for direction,
In this heartfelt reflection.
[Chorus 4]
I’m at the crossroads, where my future waits,
Trying to unlock destiny’s gates,
Hoping to find my way tonight,
Underneath the stars, my guiding light.
(Oh, oh yeah)
[Bridge]
(Mmm) And in the stillness of the night,
I see a glimmer of the light,
Maybe there’s a chance to start again,
To break these chains, and make amends.
[Outro]
Underneath that southern sky,
Where the shadows come alive,
I’ll find my way, I’ll make it right,
(Yeah) Underneath these stars tonight.
[Fade to End]
