[Verse 1]
Ash on my tongue
Teeth like a match
Yeah
I strike when I'm numb
Cracks in the glass
Show me a stranger that I wanna outlast
Eyes full of sparks
I’ve been sleeping in gasoline dreams
Dare me to breathe
You keep daring me to bleed
[Chorus]
Smoke in the mirror
Burn me beautiful
Make me feel alive
Set my shadow on fire
Let the flames crawl up
Let the old me die
Smoke in the mirror
If it hurts like hell
Then I know I’m right
Burn me beautiful
Burn me ‘til I’m bright
[Verse 2]
Skin learning scars
Every mistake like a constellation of wars
I’m counting the breaks
Every fracture is a road I can take
You call it rage
I call it turning the lock on the cage
You call it wrong
But it’s the only way I’m strong (yeah)
[Chorus]
Smoke in the mirror
Burn me beautiful
Make me feel alive
Set my shadow on fire
Let the flames crawl up
Let the old me die
Smoke in the mirror
If it hurts like hell
Then I know I’m right
Burn me beautiful
Burn me ‘til I’m bright
[Bridge]
I don’t want mercy
I want the edge
I want the scream
I don’t want saving
I want the crash that sets me free (hey!)
If I turn to cinders
Remember this when I ignite
I was broken
I was bitter
Now I’m burning into light
[Chorus]
Smoke in the mirror
Burn me beautiful
Make me feel alive
Set my shadow on fire
Let the flames crawl up
Let the old me die
Smoke in the mirror
If it hurts like hell
Then I know I’m right
Burn me beautiful
Burn me ‘til I’m bright (so bright)
Burn me beautiful
Burn me back to life
