[Verse 1]
Teeth in the mirror
Claws in my head
Every bad choice I made
Painted in red
Sleep like a graveyard
Bones in my chest
Name every fear on my tongue
Choke on the rest (yeah)
[Chorus]
I am the war inside my skin
Fighting the monsters I let in
I built this cage
I bent these bars
Now I will tear them all apart
I am the war inside my skin
Bleeding the poison from within
I’m not their victim anymore
I’ll be the one worth fighting for
[Verse 2]
Voices like vultures
Circle my doubt
Feeding on cracks in the walls
I boarded up now
They say I’m nothing
I taste that lie
Spit it back out on the floor
Watch their ghosts die (hey)
[Chorus]
I am the war inside my skin
Fighting the monsters I let in
I built this cage
I bent these bars
Now I will tear them all apart
I am the war inside my skin
Bleeding the poison from within
I’m not their victim anymore
I’ll be the one worth fighting for
[Bridge]
Let them claw
Let them crawl
I’ve heard every threat they snarl
Let them bite
Let them burn
I’m the lesson they will learn
On this scarred and shaking ground
I drag my demons
I drag my demons down (down, down)
[Chorus]
I am the war inside my skin
Fighting the monsters I let in
I built this cage
I bent these bars
Now I will tear them all apart
I am the war inside my skin
Bleeding the poison from within
I’m not their victim anymore
I am the one worth fighting for
