[Verse 1]
Black sky
Here we go again
Steel boots in a puddle of yesterday
Every time I start to feel the sun
Someone pulls the plug
Turns day to gray
[Pre-Chorus]
I build it up
They tear it down
Same old script
Different name
Same sound
Teeth on edge
Taste of rust
I’m done choking on their dust
[Chorus]
Why is someone always raining on my parade?
Every step I take
They’re dragging out the blade
I won’t drown inside the storm they made
Why is someone always raining on my parade?
[Verse 2]
Backstage in my own damn life
They shove me from the center of the frame
Laugh it off
Say I’m overcharged
But they’re the ones feeding off the flame
[Pre-Chorus]
I bite my tongue till it splits
Now the blood spells out I’m sick of this
Thick dark sky
Heavy head
I’m not lying down
I’m seeing red
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Let it crack
Let it break
Hear that thunder in my veins
I’m awake
Let it pour
Let it flood
I’ll carve my name in the rising mud
[Chorus]
