Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro] [low vocal register] Thin bow on a shaking string Candles crawling up the walls Echo in an empty hall I feel it crawling in [Verse 1] Black nails in my breathing Every thought a sharpened claw Every "what if" like a vulture Circling what it wants to gnaw Hands cold Chest burning Room still But my pulse runs wild Mirror shows a stranger Half a monster Half a child [Chorus] Heart like a war drum War drum War drum Beating on my ribs like it's calling for blood Shadows on the ceiling Screaming I'm done But I raise my fist I won't let it flood Heart like a war drum War drum War drum If it wants a battle Then I won't run Trembling Broken Barely holding on I turn that terror into a battle song [Verse 2] Crowds sound like a siren Even quiet feels too loud Every future feels like falling From the edges of a cloud But I mark each breath like tally marks On the walls inside my skull Every panic is a prophecy I learn to tear apart and dull [Bridge] [whispered vocals] You are not the screaming in your veins You are not the storm behind your eyes You are more than all the cruel refrains You're the one who stands back up [build] every time you rise [crescendo] Let it shake you Let it shake you But it won't break you Won't unmake you Hold the line One step Then one more Bare teeth to the beast at the door [Chorus]
