[Verse 1]
Clock’s on fire
3 a.m. again
Eyes wide open
Staring through my skin
Shadows on the ceiling
Know my name
Every little heartbeat
Feels like blame
[Pre-Chorus]
I’ve run from these memories
Till my lungs turned black
Every nightmare waiting
For when I turn my back
[Chorus]
I’m crawling through the night
With my monsters at my side
Take a hit and watch them tremble
As my heartbeat starts to rise
Yeah
I’m bleeding through the dark
Till the truth cuts like a light
If I’m burning
Let me burn here
Till I see it
Through the night
[Verse 2]
Ash on the carpet
Ghosts in the hall
Every door I bolted
Screams through the wall
Light up the poison
Just to slow my head
Chase the spiral upward
Out of the dread
[Pre-Chorus]
I taste every memory
In the back of my throat
All the words they carved in me
Turn to secondhand smoke
[Chorus]
I’m crawling through the night
With my monsters at my side
Take a hit and watch them tremble
As my heartbeat starts to rise
Yeah
I’m bleeding through the dark
Till the truth cuts like a light
If I’m burning
Let me burn here
Till I see it
Through the night
[Bridge]
[Lurch to half-time
Riff droning
Vocal half-spoken
Half-snarled]
Breath in
Breath out
Let the panic drain out
Every scar that they left
I can trace it in the clouds
If I float
If I fall
I’m still facing it all
I’m not hiding in the smoke
I’m just walking through the wall (hey!)
[Chorus]
I’m crawling through the night
With my demons open-eyed
Take a hit and they get smaller
Till they’re barely in my sight
Yeah
I’m screaming in the dark
But it sounds like being alive
If I’m burning
Let me burn here
Till my fear turns into fire
I’ll be standing
Bruised and breathing
When I make it
Through the night
