Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Chicago lights don’t shine the same Through smoke that tastes like someone’s pain I used to serve cheap coffee smiles Now I count the dead in empty aisles They came at night, no warning sound Just silver flashes, bodies down I tried to scream, I couldn’t breathe They took the world that lived in me [Chorus] I am the victim, I wear the name Like broken glass inside my veins You made a god out of my pain But nothing ever feels the same I hear their voices in the dark I see their faces in the sparks Every step I take, I break Every breath’s a scar I can’t escape You built me up to never fall But I still feel the loss of all So if I burn, if I remain Just know—you made me from this pain [Verse 2] Cold steel tables, endless white Hands that carved me out of light They said “you’ll save the world someday” But gods aren’t made this kind of way Every scar still burns like truth Every scream still echoes through They built a weapon, not a soul But somehow I survived it all [Chorus] I am the victim, I wear the name Like broken glass inside my veins You made a god out of my pain But nothing ever feels the same I hear their voices in the dark I see their faces in the sparks Every step I take, I break Every breath’s a scar I can’t escape You built me up to never fall But I still feel the loss of all So if I burn, if I remain Just know—you made me from this pain [Bridge] I don’t sleep—I just remember Flashes bleeding into forever Their voices caught inside my chest I couldn’t save them… I did my best I feel I was alive like this once before Torn apart, reassembled and made more My creator wanted a narrative of pain Now nothing for me will be the same And now I walk through fire and gold A hollow heart I can’t control They call me savior, they don’t see The girl I was is buried in me [Verse 3] I break their chains, I shut them down Tear their towers to the ground But every face I try to save Looks like the ones I couldn’t take So I keep going, I don’t stop Even when my body drops If I can’t bring my family back I’ll burn the world that took them black [Chorus] I am the victim, I wear the name Like broken glass inside my veins You made a god out of my pain But nothing ever feels the same I hear their voices in the dark I see their faces in the sparks Every step I take, I break Every breath’s a scar I can’t escape You built me up to never fall But I still feel the loss of all So if I burn, if I remain Just know—you made me from this pain [Outro] Don’t call me hero, don’t call me light I’m just what’s left after the night And if I fall, don’t look away A victim learned to never break
