Trenches

Yeah…

Smoke in the sky, blood on my hands

Can’t tell if I’m alive or just losing again

Black shirt torn, standing in the ash now

Whole world froze when they let the mask down

Purple in my veins like a curse I can’t kill

Every scar on my face sayin’ “you ain’t healed still”

Backwards hat, eyes cold like December

Lost so much shit I don’t even remember

Everybody switched when the lights went dim

Now I talk to the dark like it’s my only friend

I was down bad, late nights in the wreckage

Heart full of rage and a mind full of questions

Tried to stay calm but the pain got louder

Now the storm in my chest got the whole earth shatterin’

I can feel it under my skin

Something evil pulling me in

If I fall tonight don’t cry for me

I’ve been dead inside since seventeen

Purple static in the night sky

Broken soul but I still fight

Hands shaking while the flames rise

Everybody leaves when the hope dies

I don’t wanna feel this anymore

But the darkness knocking at my door

Battle scars and a heart gone black

No way out and no turning back

Whole city burning while I stand alone

Carrying demons that I made my own

Everybody wanna love you when you shining bright

Then they disappear when you start losing fights

Blood on the ground and the smoke too thick

Got pain in my chest that I can’t outlive

Every bad thought hit like a blade to the ribs

Still scream “I’m okay” while I’m falling to bits

I was made in the fire, can’t nobody save me

Mind gone numb and the world still hates me

If this power consumes me tonight

At least they’ll remember the look in my eyes

And I know…

I’m turning into something cold

But if I let this darkness go

Would anybody miss my soul?

Purple static in the night sky

Lost myself in the last fight

Ashes falling like the rain now

I don’t even feel the pain now

If I fade into the black smoke

Tell my ghosts I finally let go

Battle scars and a heart gone black

No way out and no turning back
