[Verse 1]
Bathroom light flickers
Red lines on a pale wrist
Skin smells like a campfire
I’m chasing any kind of fix
Cold steel on a hot nerve
Just to shake the static out
If pain is the only language
Then I’m screaming without a sound
[Chorus]
Cutting just to feel the flood
Burning just to break the frost
Everything is numb as stone
But I’m not giving up this pulse
If death looks easy from this ledge
I’ll still drag my broken frame
’Cause I’ve got ashes in my veins
But there’s a pilot in the flame
[Verse 2]
Voices in the vents hiss
“Take the shortcut
Step off”
Every thought a loaded gun
Cock it back with every loss
Mirror shows a ghost face
Eyes blacked out with old shame
But I stitch my shaking fingers
Round the edge of this dark frame
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
You want me gone?
Then you’ll have to drag me
Through every shard
Of the past that stabbed me
[building intensity]
I feel the urge
Crawling under my skin
But I’d rather feel this hurt
Than feel nothing again
[screamed]
I AM NOT YOUR VICTIM
I AM NOT YOUR GRAVE
[Chorus]
