[Verse 1]
You bit through the skin
And left your mark inside
I wear your name like ash
All welded to my side
Black taste on my tongue
Cold hands in my chest
You fed on my good side
Now I got what’s left
[Pre-Chorus]
I try to shut the door
You kick it off the hinge
I hear you in my bones
Like a wire under my ribs
I can’t sleep it off
Can’t scrub it out
You made a home in me
And I’m spitting you out
[Chorus]
Demon heart ache
You live in my veins
Demon heart ache
Say my name, then break
Demon heart ache
I bite back, I stay
Demon heart ache
You don’t own me, babe
(demon heart ache)
[Verse 2]
I drag this body home
Through glass and mud and grit
Every lie you fed me
I learned to spit
Your shadow on the wall
Still thinks it runs the room
But I got nails and fire
And a meaner bloom
[Pre-Chorus]
I try to shut the door
You kick it off the hinge
I hear you in my bones
Like a wire under my ribs
I can’t sleep it off
Can’t scrub it out
You made a home in me
And I’m spitting you out
[Chorus]
Demon heart ache
You live in my veins
Demon heart ache
Say my name, then break
Demon heart ache
I bite back, I stay
Demon heart ache
You don’t own me, babe
(demon heart ache)
[Bridge]
You wanted my ruin
Wanted me small
Now watch me rise up
Through the wreckage and all
I’ll carry this scar
Like a blade on my chest
If you come for the rest
I’ll fight like the rest
[Final Chorus]
Demon heart ache
You live in my veins
Demon heart ache
Say my name, then break
Demon heart ache
I bite back, I stay
Demon heart ache
You don’t own me, babe
(demon heart ache)
Demon heart ache
I cut you away
Demon heart ache
You don’t own me, babe
