[Verse 1]
Blood on my boots
Ash in my lungs
Child with a wooden sword
Now I carry loaded tongues
They called it freedom
I called it war
Every wall that held me safe
Just a cage I swore I'd burn to the floor
[Pre-Chorus]
You want the hero?
He died that day
Left his bones
In the break of the gate
[Chorus]
I won't run from the monsters
I became the storm they fear
Let the world draw its borders
I'll erase them
Disappear
If the sky has to fall for us to breathe
Then I'll drag it down
I'll drag it down with me
[Verse 2]
Friends at my side
Eyes full of faith
Now they look at me like
I'm the blade pressed to their veins
Every step heavier
Every choice stained
But if peace is built on chains
I'll be the quake that snaps each link in the chain
[Pre-Chorus]
You want forgiveness?
It's far too late
I wear the sins
Like armor and weight
[Chorus]
I won't run from the monsters
I became the storm they fear
Let the world draw its borders
I'll erase them
Disappear
If the sky has to fall for us to breathe
Then I'll drag it down
I'll drag it down with me
[Bridge]
Let them hate me
Scream my name
I'm the spark
In a field of graves
If this path
Is the price of change
Then carve my will
In the bones of fate (hey!)
[Chorus]
I won't run from the monsters
I became the storm they fear
Let the world draw its borders
I'll erase them
Disappear
If the sky has to fall for us to breathe
Then I'll drag it down
I'll drag it down with me
[Outro]
Blood on my hands
Fire in my teeth
I was born in a cage
Now the cage can bleed
