Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] [Violin crying low Distant] Breath on the window Ash on my tongue Name on a bottle Fading [Verse 1] I made a home In the hollow of my chest Built it from grudges And old cigarette burns You said my shadow Was the only thing I loved You were right It still returns [Chorus] Venom in my veins You’re the poison and the cure Drag me through the grave till I don’t recognise the hurt Bring me back to life from the center of the fire I will rise I will rise I will rise like a phoenix from the dirt (oh) Venom in my veins But I’m crawling toward the dawn [Verse 2] The mirror keeps A list of my mistakes Written in fingerprints And cheap hotel soap I wear your voice Like a rope around my throat Every word a knot Every silence Hope [Chorus] Venom in my veins You’re the poison and the cure Drag me through the grave till I don’t recognise the hurt Bring me back to life from the center of the fire I will rise I will rise I will rise like a phoenix from the dirt (yeah) Venom in my veins But I’m crawling toward the dawn [Bridge] If I burn Let it be for something If I fall Let it be from trying If I scream Let it shake your quiet room If I live Let it be defying (oh) [Chorus] Venom in my veins You’re the poison and the cure Drag me through the grave till I don’t recognise the hurt Bring me back to life from the center of the fire I will rise I will rise I will rise like a phoenix from the dirt Venom in my veins But I’m walking toward the dawn Yeah I’m walking toward the dawn (bring me back to life)

rock, Slow-burn rock ballad with a mournful solo violin intro over sparse piano, then a heavy, brooding rhythm section enters. Male vocals, deep and almost spoken in the verses, grow rough and desperate in the chorus. Guitars stay low and droning with occasional high, crying bends; big, echoing toms and a distant choir swell support the final chorus for a scorched-earth climax., violin, low, vocal, sad, ballad
