[Intro] Spit on the floor Tape on my hands Names on the wall We drew our own map [Verse 1] Leather and dust Black shirts Cut sleeves I came here broken I came here to bleed Bootprints branded On my old beliefs Circle of strangers That feel like my team [Interlude] [Verse 2] Stage lights flare I taste rust in my throat Friends to my left To my right I don’t know We nod once Grinning Silent decree Tonight I’m alive When you crash into me [Pre-Chorus] I’m not afraid of the hit I’m terrified of the silence So if this is all that I get Let it come with violence [Chorus] Wall of death is my playground Where the fear burns out Where the doubt backs down If we go Then we go right now Bodies fly And the shame falls out When the earth gives way under our feet I finally feel something real in me Wall of death is my playground [Verse 3] Sweat in my eyes My heart off the rails One breath away From beautiful fail If I don’t run I might learn how to fall If I don’t fall Did I live this at all? [Bridge] Every bruise Every shard Draws a map on my skin Every shove Every scar Says I chose to begin If I break Let me break Where the lost are found If I fade Let me fade Screaming “run me down!” (run me down!) [Breakdown] [Music drops to a snarling Half-time chug] Left side Right side Part the sea This is the moment You’re all like me RUN!!! [HardInterlude] [Pre-Chorus] I’m not afraid of the hit I’m terrified of the silence So if this is all that I get Let it come with violence [Chorus] Wall of death is my playground Where the fear burns out Where the doubt backs down If we go Then we go right now Bodies fly And the shame falls out When the earth gives way under our feet I finally feel something real in me Wall of death is my playground [Outro] My ears still ring When the night goes dark Bootprints fade But they missed my heart If I don’t wake Bury me loud Wall of death Still my playground (ohh)
