[Verse 1]
Mask on
But my hands shake
Red suit
But my heart aches
Look up
See your name on a tower
Still waiting for your shadow in the shower steam
Queens kid with this busted pride
Blood on my hoodie that I try to hide
They cheer my name like it's all a game
But they never had to hear you say "You’re not ready" then die the same day
[Pre-Chorus]
You gave me a sky
Then you fell through the clouds
Now every scream in the night
Feels like it's calling me out
[Chorus]
With great power
With great pain
I'm still talking to your ghost in the rain (yeah)
You left the earth
But you branded my veins
I keep falling
Keep crawling
But I get up again
With great power
With great pain
I'm the kid that you believed in that day
If I break
If I burn
If I bleed on this stage
I will carry what you gave me to my grave (to my grave)
[Verse 2]
Heard the snap
Like a door slam shut
Half the world dust
Half my soul cut
I was just a kid in a geeky tee
Next thing
I'm a weapon in a war I didn't even see
Green eyes in the dark want my head on a spike
Purple
Gold
Any color
They all wanna fight
Every villain with a grudge knows my block
My street
They don't see the boy writing homework with bloody feet
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep stitching up my suit with my trembling hands
'Cause if I'm not out there
Then who the hell stands?
[Chorus]
With great power
With great pain
I'm still talking to your ghost in the rain (yeah)
You left the earth
But you branded my veins
I keep falling
Keep crawling
But I get up again
With great power
With great pain
I'm the kid that you believed in that day
If I break
If I burn
If I bleed on this stage
I will carry what you gave me to my grave (to my grave)
[Bridge]
I see your face in the flashing lights (hey!)
Hear your laugh when the crowd ignites
Would you say "Kid
You're doing just fine"?
Or ask why I didn't save you this time?
Every swing's a prayer I throw
Every bruise says what I can't show
I'm so tired of being brave
But if I stop now
Who do I betray?
[Chorus]
With great power
With great pain
I'm still talking to your ghost in the rain
You left the earth
But you branded my veins
I keep falling
Keep crawling
But I get up again (get up again)
With great power
With great pain
I'm the kid that you believed in that day (oh)
If I break
If I burn
If I bleed on this stage
I will carry what you gave me to my grave
[Outro]
Mask off
And I still can't breathe
But I live like you asked of me
You saved the world
Now it's my turn to stay
I'm your friendly
Guilty
Grieving
