[Verse 1]
Teeth in the mirror
You’re every crack in the glass (yeah)
Breathing down my backbone
You twist my past
You wear my heartbeat
Like stolen armor and chains
Laugh while you gut me
Then sign it with my name
[Chorus]
I’m fighting myself
Self-destruct
You’re inside my skull saying I’m not enough
But I won’t bow down to a borrowed face
You can drag me through hell
I still won’t trade my name
[Verse 2]
You talk in static
Hiss every doubt that I know
Turn every scar into curses
You promised I’d never grow
But I’m still standing
Knuckles split
Lungs on fire
You are the poison
I am the fault-line rising higher
[Chorus]
I’m fighting myself
Self-destruct
You’re inside my skull saying I’m not enough
But I won’t bow down to a borrowed face
You can drag me through hell
I still won’t trade my name
[Bridge]
[Drums drop to stuttering
Glitchy half-time
Synths filter and swell]
(Screamer:)
Fall
You are nothing but a fracture
A failing signal
Fading faster
I am the storm in your veins
I am the hunger
I am the shame
(Singer:)
You’re just an echo I fed for years
A shadow stitched from fear
You only live when I kneel and break
So hear me now as I cut the cord and wake
[Chorus]
I’m fighting myself
Self-destruct
You’re inside my skull saying I’m not enough
But I won’t bow down
Won’t be your slave
You can drag me through hell
I still walk out with my name
[Outro]
[Band slams to half-time
Synth lead climbs
Then cuts]
Breathe in
You fade
Breathe out
I stay
