[Verse 1]
You held out your hands
I poured out my veins
Every little piece of me
Laid on your plate
You practiced your smile
In the dark of my room
Used my shoulder like a mirror
Then walked right through
[Pre-Chorus]
You watched me starve
While you licked the silver clean
I called it love
You called it routine
[Chorus]
[screamed]
You wear a hollow crown
Built from everything I bled out
I gave
I gave
I gave
You just learned how to fake it
You never felt the weight
Of the bones that you’re breaking
All of my sacrifice
Wasted on your vacant eyes
[Verse 2]
You cried on command
Right on every cue
Salt water on your cheeks
But your stare just cut straight through
I burned every bridge
Just to keep you warm
You watched from the shoreline
While I sank in the storm
[Pre-Chorus]
Your heartbeat’s just
An echo in an empty shell
I called it home
You called it someone else
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
I tore my ribs apart
To give you a throne
You sat there smiling
While I turned to stone
[screamed vocals
Half-time]
All of my blood
For your theater show
Every promise you whispered
Hit the floor like broken glass
I won’t kneel
I won’t crawl
I’m taking my body back
[Chorus]
