Love is not a weapon

I am on an edge 
Living-barely.
A single thread of warmth 
holding my sanity.
don't leave before the good parts. 
they don't come first.
Her voice was velvet over violence
Soft enough to soothe
Sharp enough to carve my name
Into the dark beneath her truth.
[Pre Chorus]
I was loyal to the darkness.
I was faithful to the idea.
But truth will break the sweetest lie, 
And help a heart stop asking why, 
Because some pain begins to end When you stop being loyal to the story.
[Chorus]
i am in between. unlearning everything
that got me here,  live a little. you're not making it out alive anyway. take the risk. say the thing.
stop saving your life for later. rock bottom doesn't change a thing. it just turns the lights on.
so you can see what was always there. So stop killing yourself just to feel a little. love is not
a weapon.
[Verse]
your pain will tell the truth.
it's speaking the question 
are you listening? 
Not all words are true.
in patterns.
in reactions.
in the things you swear,
don't mean a fucking thing.
Silence can be terrifying,
when you have built a life 
around emotional weather.
[Pre Chorus]
I was loyal to the darkness.
I was faithful to the idea.
But truth will break the sweetest lie, 
And help a heart stop asking why, 
Because some pain begins to end When you stop being loyal to the story.
[Chorus]
i am in between. unlearning everything
that got me here,  live a little. you're not making it out alive anyway. take the risk. say the thing.
stop saving your life for later. rock bottom doesn't change a thing. it just turns the lights on.
so you can see what was always there. So stop killing yourself just to feel a little. love is not
a weapon.

[Bridge]
silence is also where you finally hear how much of yourself got buried just trying to keep the storm from turning toward you. When I see everything, that I need to withstand the weather. where the battles don't end.
where the fighting never stops.
the fucking damage keeps building.
[Pre Chorus]
I was loyal to the darkness.
I was faithful to the idea.
But truth will break the sweetest lie, 
And help a heart stop asking why, 
Because some pain begins to end When you stop being loyal to the story.
[Chorus]
i am in between. unlearning everything
that got me here,  live a little. you're not making it out alive anyway. take the risk. say the thing.
stop saving your life for later. rock bottom doesn't change a thing. it just turns the lights on.
so you can see what was always there. So stop killing yourself just to feel a little. love is not
a weapon.
