Lyrics

Verse

Cracks in the mirror lines on my face

Keep tracing back to the things I never say

I drag my shadow room to room

Trip on the patterns that always end in you

You twist the knife with a casual laugh

Call it a joke then erase the aftermath

I wear the silence like second skin

Smile in the daylight come apart within

Bridge [low vocal register]

Every promise that I bent out of shape every sorry that arrived too late

I’ve worn these ruins like second skin pulling the seams from the inside in

Every echo trying to drag me back every memory sharpening the attack

I taste the fear but I hold my breath step from the ledge I mistook for rest

Chorus

Under my own skin I’m sinking fighting waves I built inside

If I’m going down I’m thinking this time I’ll choose the dive

Under my own skin I’m burning every rope I used to climb if I’m going down

I’m learning to leave this weight behind

I used to beg now I just breathe

Count every scar as something I leave

I’m not you're ending not you're excuse

I cut the rope and keep the bruise

I’m done being haunted by my own reflection

Done bleeding out for you're validation

I tear these habits from under my skin

If I have to burn to begin again

Verse 2

Cracked mirror in the bathroom light

Red eyes but I still stand straight

Teeth marks on every word I bite

I load my tongue then call it fate

Phone buzzes but I kill the sound

Old battles circling round and round

Those ghosts can talk to empty air

I’m not you're blame to wear

Bridge [low vocal register]

I’ve been my own cage my own key

Walked in circles just to feel I’m free

If this is the end of who I’ve been

Let the dark wash off not drag me in

I am not your wound to reopen I am not your weight to hold

If I have to break to be broken I’ll shatter what I was told
