Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You watched me swear it off
Hands held high in a parking lot prayer
I threw my bottles at the curb
Said I'd never crawl back there
You framed my sober chip
Right beside the family cross
Now it's face-down in a drawer
I’m rehearsing every loss
[Chorus]
I’m preaching what I don't believe
Singing hymns with broken teeth
Every promise tastes like rust on my tongue
I keep falling through my own amen
Breaking every vow again
Backslide gospel
I choke on every word I’ve sung
I had faith
I had faith
Now I just play the part and come undone
[Verse 2]
I still drive the long way home
Past that bar with the crooked sign
Tell you "traffic" made me late
While I'm trading grace for one more lie
You say "I’m proud of how you’ve changed"
I just stare at your shaking hands
’Cause I can smell last night on mine
Like a brand I can’t withstand
[Chorus]
I’m preaching what I don't believe
Singing hymns with broken teeth
Every promise tastes like rust on my tongue
I keep falling through my own amen
Breaking every vow again
Backslide gospel
I choke on every word I’ve sung
I had faith
I had faith
Now I just play the part and come undone
[Bridge]
I used to see a future in the stained glass
Now it’s just my failure in the shards
Every prayer I ever whispered
Comes back marked "return to sender" on my heart
If there’s a light
It skips my name (skips my name)
If there’s a cure
It’s not this shame (not this shame)
I’m the wound that will not heal
The believer who can’t feel
[Chorus]
I’m preaching what I don't believe
Singing hymns with broken teeth
Every promise tastes like rust on my tongue
I keep falling through my own amen
Breaking every vow again
Backslide gospel
I choke on every word I’ve sung
I had faith
I had faith
Now I just mouth the words and come undone
Yeah
I had faith
I had faith
Now I’m the prayer that even heaven shuns

rock, Heavy emo rock with male vocals, drop-tuned guitars locked to a mid-tempo stomp. Tight, choked verses with palm-muted crunch and dry vocal up front; chorus explodes with wide octave leads, gang shouts, and tom-heavy drums. Bridge strips to bass and distant guitar swells, then slams into a final double-chorus with raw, shout-sung harmonies and a lingering feedback tail., emo

Falling back into old habits after hope—heavy emo rock about relapse, guilt, and losing faith all over again.
