[Intro] I count the cracks in the ceiling like they count within me Something in the dark is breathing Something just won't let it be [Verse 1] I wake up wearing somebody else same hands, same scars, different tilt One voice says run for your life one says stay, let the room get still I keep my name in my pocket like a coin I don’t wanna spend But the shadows know my rhythm they keep tapping at the edge [Pre-Chorus] As I hear them now like footsteps on the stairs One wants control one wants me gone from here I hold my ground with a shaking jaw If I lose this round will anything be left at all [Chorus] Which one of us stays? Which one of us breaks? Which one of us wears the face I made? Which one of us speaks when the whole world shakes? Which one of us wins? Which one is locked away? [Verse 2] There’s a little boy in my mind crying there are thoughts in borrowed skin There’s a spirit made of static with a knife made out of “give in” They took my life from me When I didn't have a clue I keep finding little notes in bloodless ink saying “I was here before you” [Pre-Chorus] And I hear them now like thunder from my past One wants the pain Another wants to make it last I try to plant my feet in the quicksand of the floor 'cause if I let go now I won’t know me anymore [Chorus] Which one of us stays? Which one of us breaks? Which one of us wears the face I made? Which one of us speaks when the whole world shakes? Which one of us wins? Which one is locked away? [Bridge] [Chopped and Screwed] Slo-oow… down… say my na-ame… I got a choir in my skull and they all sound the same One says "save him" one says "burn this place" One says “you’re fake” one says “you're a disgrace” Oh no, oh no who’s behind these eyes? Oh no, oh no who survives tonight? Oh no, oh no who survives tonight! [Chorus] It's them who have stayed I'm the one who breaks It's them who now wear the face I made Now they laugh at me when the whole world shakes They're the one who wins It's me who's locked away [Outro] I hear the lock click soft but I can’t see who moved The dark still knows my name and it’s not in the mood One set of hands at my neck ready to throw me away I’m standing in the aftermath lost in the void today
