[TRACK 1 — "Down Here"] [intimate intro release / leads into title track] Down here.... Down here with me I've got eyes, I see demise But I'm not here to close them I've got time, I've got the drive To thrive while I'm alive and chosen Down here.... Down here with me I know the way it pulls you under I know the sound before the thunder Stay close, I've been here longer Stay close, it only makes you stronger The walls don't talk but they remember The dark is warm when you surrender Not giving in, just going deeper Not falling down, just finding fever I've got eyes, I see the signs The ones they leave behind to blind us We rise, we don't survive We thrive, we come alive, remind us I rise to the need Visited by the darkness company And it speaks to me In a voice I built from nothing Down here.... Can you feel it? Something underneath is moving Something in the foundation shifting Coming loose Coming loose Coming loose.... [TRACK 2 — "Breaking Core"] [title track / picks up where "Down Here" breaks open] I rock, I twist, my feelings never miss Reinforced missions in the aimless I run, I dive, my will to stay alive Let me loose, I've had enough of waiting Cut me loose, I'm done with hesitating On the loose, and no one's gonna cage this Bricks by the walls Halls of scars from those I trusted Bringing down my essence Built up my tolerances Cut me off and watch what happens Shut me down, I'm still here standing Nothing given, nothing owed Held it in until I chose to let it go [PRE-CHORUS] Down here.... I rise to the need Visited by the darkness company And it speaks to me In a voice I built from nothing Tells me keep on running Tells me stop for nothing [CHORUS] BREAK THE CORE I won't fold beneath the floor BREAK THE CORE Every scar is what I'm for They will never take me from myself I am everything they tried to shelf BREAK THE CORE I shake, I grind, the pressure on my spine Took everything they gave me, yeah it's mine I breathe, I bleed, I'm what you didn't need Let me loose, I'm not the one you want to test [HOOK] Cracked and shattered, doesn't matter Every piece I find is brighter Reassembled and arranged I'm the version that remained Cut me loose, the walls are cracking Voices loud inside my head keep stacking Push me down, I keep coming back and Coming back and coming back and On the loose now, no one's tracking No one's watching, no one's asking [PRE-CHORUS] Down here.... I rise above the feed Separated from the darkness company And it reaches for me With a weight I used to know Tells me let it go Tells me don't let go [CHORUS] BREAK THE CORE I won't fold beneath the floor BREAK THE CORE Every scar is what I'm for They will never take me from myself I am everything they tried to shelf BREAK THE CORE I cracked, I shattered, scattered to the wind But every fragment learned to breathe again I burned the goals, built a different frame They'll never take me from myself I am not the same I... am... still... here... [CHORUS] BREAK THE CORE I won't fold beneath the floor BREAK THE CORE Every scar is what I'm for They will never take me from myself I am everything they tried to shelf I am everything I kept alive I am everything, redesigned BREAK THE CORE Down here.... Down here.... I'm still here
