Prompt / Lyrics
Cradle My Pain Verse 1 I wake up choking on the echo in my skull, Broken teeth thoughts, yeah they rattle when I mull. Static in my veins, every nerve’s a live grenade, Smile stitched shut, I’m a mess you fucking made. Mirror talks shit, says “you’re nothing but a scar,” I spit back blood, say “I’ve come this fucking far.” Hands shake rage, knuckles itching for the truth, I was born in the fire, baptized in the abuse. Pre-Chorus Hear the click-clack, heartbeat off the rails, I tried to run clean but the past leaves fucking trails. If I drown tonight, let the silence explain— I don’t need saving, I need you to feel this pain. Chorus Cradle my pain like a loaded gun, Rock me to sleep till the damage is done. Scream my name, let the nightmare reign, Hold me tight while I fucking break. Cradle my pain, don’t pray for rain— I’m the storm and I love the fucking strain. Verse 2 I chew on guilt like it’s glass in my mouth, Every promise rots when I’m heading south. Got a halo of rust and a crown of blame, I torch every bridge then I curse the flame. Voices say “behave,” I say “go to hell,” I tried being good, now I ring the bell. This is not a phase, this is how I cope, Tied a noose to hope just to learn the slope. Pre-Chorus Pulse pounds war through my ribcage cage, I’m a dog with a heart full of fucking rage. If I fall apart, let the wreckage remain— I don’t want forgiveness, I want you to feel this pain. Chorus Cradle my pain like a loaded gun, Rock me to sleep till the damage is done. Scream my name, let the nightmare reign, Hold me tight while I fucking break. Cradle my pain, don’t pray for rain— I’m the storm and I love the fucking strain. Bridge (half-time, whispered then screamed) Say it’s my fault—yeah, say it again, Carve it in stone, let it sink in my skin. I’m not your saint, I’m not your cure, I’m the sickness you fed till it couldn’t endure. Fuck your lies, fuck your “be okay,” Fuck the mask, I rip it away. Count me out? I count the scars— Every cut taught me who the fuck you are. Breakdown Breathe— In the dark, I fucking breathe— Clench— Every loss is under my teeth— Bleed— Make it real, make it mean— I rise from the dirt, unclean, unseen. Final Chorus Cradle my pain like a loaded gun, Sing me a hymn when the damage is done. Scream my name, let the nightmare reign, Hold me tight while I fucking break. Cradle my pain, I won’t explain— I’m alive in the hurt, yeah I fucking remain. Outro No lullabies, just grit and grain— Cradle my pain.
