Verse 1
Smoke in my lungs, fire in my veins
Running from the echo of my name
Every little lie I tried to hide
Comes alive in the dead of night
Cold sweat dripping down my skin
I don’t know where the dark begins
Every step feels razor thin
But I keep crawling back again
Pre-Chorus
And I—
Hear the sirens in my head
Oh, I—
Dance with the danger instead
Chorus
Oh-oh-oh!
I’m going down but I love the fall
Woah-oh-oh!
Hear my shadow screaming through the walls
I taste the poison, feel it take control
Every broken piece is taking toll
Oh-oh-oh!
I’m alive while I’m dying slow
Verse 2
Ashes falling like the summer rain
Everybody says I need to change
But the chaos keeps me wide awake
Like a habit that I cannot break
Heavy heartbeat, blacked-out skies
Truth buried underneath the lies
Every angel left behind
Now there’s only fire in my eyes
Pre-Chorus
And I—
Hear the sirens in my head
Oh, I—
Dance with the danger instead
Chorus
Oh-oh-oh!
I’m going down but I love the fall
Woah-oh-oh!
Hear my shadow screaming through the walls
I taste the poison, feel it take control
Every broken piece is taking toll
Oh-oh-oh!
I’m alive while I’m dying slow
Bridge (breakdown)
(quiet)
Wake me up when the silence ends
When the wolves don’t circle in my head
(building)
Every scar… every flame…
Every ghost knows my name…
(DROP)
Hey! Hey!
I won’t fade away!
Hey! Hey!
Hear the thunder when I break!
Final Chorus (huge stadium finish)
Oh-oh-oh!
I’m going down but I love the fall
Woah-oh-oh!
Hear my shadow screaming through the walls
Feel the fire underneath my soul
Every broken part losing control
Oh-oh-oh!
I’m alive while I’m dying slow
Woah-oh-oh!
Alive while I’m dying slow…
