Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Small shoes by the doorway
Tiny jacket on the chair
I lace my boots like battle armor
But the war is in my head
Her laugh cuts through the static
Two teeth
Crooked little grin
I lift her up like she’s my trophy
While I’m rusting from within
[Chorus]
Am I an anchor in the fire
Or a storm that drags us under
Can these shaking hands be stronger
Than the echoes of my past
I see her eyes
They’re getting brighter
While my shadows growing faster
Will I break her
Will I save her
Tell me
Can this cursed heart last
[Verse 2]
My father’s voice in the mirror
Spitting venom through my face
Every promise snapped like branches
Every silence leaving stains
I hear her crying in the nighttime
I’m afraid I’ll sleep straight through
So I sit awake ’til sunrise
Guarding her from me and you
[Chorus]
Am I an anchor in the fire
Or a storm that drags us under
Can these shaking hands be stronger
Than the echoes of my past
I see her eyes
They’re getting brighter
While my shadows growing faster
Will I break her
Will I save her
Tell me
Can this cursed heart last
[Bridge]
Two a.m
She’s breathing softly
Tiny fist around my thumb (hold on)
Every fear I’ve ever buried
Comes up gasping for my lungs
If I stand here in the terror
If I stay when I could run
Maybe monsters lose their power
When they’re staring at the sun
[Chorus]
I’ll be an anchor in the fire
Not a storm that drags us under
Let these shaking hands grow stronger
Than the echoes of my past
In her eyes
The world is waiting
So I’ll bleed to be her shelter
If I break
I’ll break in front of her
So she knows I came back
So she knows I came back (for her)

Style
metal, Crushing modern metal, drop-tuned guitars with tremolo-picked riffs and dissonant chords, double-kick bursts under the verses, half-time stomp in the chorus. Male vocals shifting from tortured mid screams to melodic, anthemic hooks with gang shouts doubling key lines. Sparse, clean-guitar bridge with reverb that swells back into a final full-band onslaught, bass grinding tight with the kick, tom-heavy fills leading into section hits.
