Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Teeth on the gravel Blood in my grin Prayed to the gravel It answered with skin Bite down on anger Grind through the doubt Every old mercy Is rotting out [Chorus] Rust on the halo Bent wings drag in the dirt I’m not your saint I’m just learning to hurt Carved in the cradle These scars never stay small Rust on the halo Still too sharp to fall (hey!) [Verse 2] Hands like a furnace Heart like a nail I keep on crawling Through my own trail You want redemption? I want the truth All of my heroes Are missing a tooth [Chorus] Rust on the halo Bent wings drag in the dirt I’m not your saint I’m just learning to hurt Carved in the cradle These scars never stay small Rust on the halo Still too sharp to fall [Bridge] I won’t kneel I won’t crack If I break I break back (back!) Spit out fear Taste that flame Say my shame Say my name [Chorus] Rust on the halo Bent wings drag in the dirt I’m not your saint I’m just learning to hurt Carved in the cradle These scars write on the wall Rust on the halo But I still stand tall
Tags
metal, Aggressive modern metalcore; down-tuned guitars with chugging palm mutes and dissonant leads. Male vocals alternating barked verses and soaring melodic hooks; gang shouts on key phrases in the chorus. Drums hit with rapid double-kick bursts and china crashes; bridge opens into a half-time stomp with a climbing lead line before a final explosive chorus.
