[Verse 1] You drew a line across my door I learned to walk through fire The name you gave me fits no more I built a different wire [Pre-Chorus] You can count the scars You can call me wrong But I have carried this too long [Chorus] You don't know me, you can't own me I won't bend beneath your hands When the pressure starts to close me I become what I withstand I have faced the teeth of midnight I have watched the old world fall If you hear the warning ringing Know I will not fade at all [Verse 2] I kept my anger in a box Until the hinges broke Now every lock around my heart Is just another joke [Bridge] I tried to keep the fever down I tried to hide the ache But every mask I wore became Another thing to break [Breakdown] No chains No throne No voice can claim my bones Stand back Step clear I turn the panic into fear [Final Chorus] You don't know me, you can't own me I won't bend beneath your hands When the pressure starts to close me I become what I withstand I have faced the teeth of midnight I have watched the old world fall If you hear the warning ringing Know I will not fade at all [Outro] I am not the shape you named I am not the debt you claimed The door is gone, the road is mine I cross the edge one final time
