Daughter of the drought

[Intro]
You lit a match
Where a heart should be
Stared through me
Like a smoke screen
[Verse 1]
Ash in the sink
Bottles by the bed
Your love was a line
You took instead
You called me hopeless
Like it was my name
I searched every dirt road with you
Trying to outrun your game
[Chorus]
I’m the daughter of the drought
You never watered
You blacked me out
Built my spine from all your broken bottles
Scattered my mind like Aristotle
You left me crying in a paper house
So I learned to scream my own way out
You don’t get to claim me now
I’m the daughter of the drought
[Verse 2]
You lost too many days
to the bathroom floor
Chasing a ghost
You loved more
Was it really that deep? It’s still a mystery
you chose to fade, hug your poison
Till my heart decayed
Now I’ve grown up
But the room’s still haunted
Your silence stills
Where my heart is left wanted
[Chorus]
I’m the daughter of the drought
You never watered
You blacked me out
Built my spine from all your broken bottles
Pieced my mind back together with Aristotle (Aristotle)
You left me crying in an empty house
So I learned to scream my own way out
You don’t get to claim me now
I’m the daughter of the drought
[Bridge]
Did you ever see?
Did I get any clearer?
Or was it just your addiction
Getting nearer
(Still feel the distance)
Like a fence in my veins
(Still hear your whispers)
When it finally rains
Let it wash it all away
[Chorus]
I’m the daughter of the drought
You never watered
You blacked me out
Built my spine from all your broken bottles
Shattered my mind like Aristotle
You left me crying in an empty house
So I learned to scream my own way out
You don’t get to claim me now
I’m the daughter of the drought
[Outro]
Did you ever see?
Did you ever see
Through the smoke screen

metal, Crushing modern metal with down-tuned guitars, double-kick bursts, and a snarling female vocal that flips between
