[Verse 1]
I wore your name like ash
Under my tongue
Cold in my chest
Still burning, still young
Your shadow on the wall
Moves when I don't
I hear it call my bones
But I let it go
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm shaking clean
From the poison hymn
Hands up, let it in
Then I pull back in
[Chorus]
Break me open, break me open
I won't bow down again
Break me open, break me open
I rise through the pain
Say my name, say my name
Watch the dark unwind
Break me open, break me open
I'm alive this time
[Verse 2]
I bit through every lie
Kept the scarred-up grin
Took the heavy blows
And I still came in
You wanted my ruin
Wrapped in gold and smoke
But I found my voice
In the things you broke
[Pre-Chorus]
Now I'm shaking clean
From the poison hymn
Hands up, let it in
Then I pull back in
[Chorus]
Break me open, break me open
I won't bow down again
Break me open, break me open
I rise through the pain
Say my name, say my name
Watch the dark unwind
Break me open, break me open
I'm alive this time
[Bridge]
[Guttural growl]
I carried your storm in my ribs
I carried your teeth in my sleep
[High vocal]
But the fire in me
Won't kneel, won't plead
[Chorus]
Break me open, break me open
I won't bow down again
Break me open, break me open
I rise through the pain
Say my name, say my name
Watch the dark unwind
Break me open, break me open
I'm alive this time
