Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Wake up on a floor I don't remember

Teeth like glass

Tongue tastes like shame

Missed calls blooming red all over my screen

Every promise I made

Burned in my brain

I said I'd change

I said "I'm trying"

Then took that cash

Fed it to the fire

Mom at the door

Eyes already tired

"I'm fine

I'm fine" — same choir of liars

[Chorus]

I put rust in my veins

Turned my heart into a grave

Let you drown while I was sinking

Still begged you to stay

I'm the weight that pulls you under

I'm the rot behind the smile

So alone inside this cancer

Trying to kill what I became

[Verse 2]

Every friend learned how to vanish

One by one

They slipped the chain

Only shadow left beside me

Is the monster with my face

I curse the world

Call it heartless

While I’m stealing from your plate

Feed the hole

Still getting hollow

How much more can I erase?

[Chorus]

I put rust in my veins

Turned my heart into a grave

Let you drown while I was sinking

Still begged you to stay

I'm the weight that pulls you under

I'm the rot behind the smile

So alone inside this cancer

Trying to kill what I became

[Bridge]

[Breakdown hits

Guitars chug in stabs]

I am the blade

Pressed to my own throat

I am the cage

Swallowing the key whole

If I stay the same

Bury me alone

If I crawl away

Can I ever come home? (come home)

[Chorus]

I put rust in my veins

But I don’t want this grave

If I drown instead of running

Will you turn away?

I was the weight that pulled you under

I was the rot behind the smile

Standing up inside this fire

While I strangle every lie

[Outro]

One breath

One step at a time

If the demon wears my skin

Then I'll learn how to fight my own eyes
