[Verse 1]
You wore that crooked crown
Sweet lies in a sugar mouth
Pulled strings in the background
Turned our home to a battleground
You loved the chaos more than me
Every kiss came with a fee
You fed your ego
Starved the kids
Left me bleeding in the crib
[Chorus]
Rust on your halo
Black paint on your name
You don't get to own my sorrow
You don't get to wear my shame
You can drown in your reflection
Chasing every empty high
I won't pray for your redemption
But I won't let you take my life
[Verse 2]
You weaponized every tear
Turned my doubts into your spear
Called it love while you kept score
Walked out
Asked me for some more
But their small hands hold me down
Keep my boots on safer ground
I'm not crawling back to you
I've got better hearts to prove
[Chorus]
Rust on your halo
Black paint on your name
You don't get to own my sorrow
You don't get to wear my shame
You can drown in your reflection
Chasing every empty high
I won't pray for your redemption
But I won't let you take my life
[Bridge]
You are not the voice in my head
Just a ghost screaming in the vents
I choose tiny arms round my neck
Over every poison you inject
You can vanish into your rage
I'll be standing off your stage
What you broke won't stay destroyed
Watch me fill in every void (yeah)
[Chorus]
Rust on your halo
Black paint on your name
You don't get to own my sorrow
You don't get to wear my shame
You can drown in your reflection
Chasing every empty high
I don't wish you any mercy
But I won't let you take my life
