[Verse 1]
Teeth in the newsfeed
Ash in the sky
Everyone screaming
Choose a side or die
Neon commandments
Burnt into my phone
Every loud voice says
“Do what you’re told”
[Pre-Chorus]
But under the sirens
Under the screens
Something is pounding
Breaking the seams
Quiet at first
Then it starts to shout
[Chorus]
This is my bloodbeat anthem
Heart like a war drum
Drag me through the fire
Every pulse
It’s calling
“Trust what you feel
Not the choir” (hey)
In a world that’s built on ashes
I won’t drown in borrowed doubt
My bloodbeat anthem
I let my wild heart spell it out
[Verse 2]
Crowds in a straight line
Marching for sleep
Selling their daylight
Cheap
Cheap
Cheap
But I’ve got a riot
Locked in my chest
Every wrong turn I made
Still led me to this
[Pre-Chorus]
Voices around me
“Who do you think you are?”
They don’t hear the thunder
Under my scars
Quiet at first
Then it shakes the ground
[Chorus]
This is my bloodbeat anthem
Heart like a war drum
Drag me through the fire
Every pulse
It’s calling
“Trust what you feel
Not the choir”
In a world that’s built on ashes
I won’t drown in borrowed doubt
My bloodbeat anthem
I let my wild heart spell it out
[Bridge]
I won’t mute my fever (no)
I won’t trade my flame
Let them paint this place as heaven
I can taste the chains
If I lose
I lose on my own terms
If I burn
I burn for my own words
[Chorus]
This is my bloodbeat anthem
Heart like a war drum
Drag me through the fire
Every pulse
It’s calling
“Trust what you feel
Not the choir” (oh)
In a world that’s built on ashes
I won’t drown in borrowed doubt
My bloodbeat anthem
I let my wild heart spell it out
My bloodbeat anthem
I let my wild heart tear it out
