There’s a name carved deep in the back of my throat Like a prayer I never meant to know You lit the match just to watch me burn Now the whole damn world gonna watch me return I wore your lies like a saint wears gold Heavy on the chest, turning my blood cold Every promise sounded sharp as glass Now I hear your voice and I just laugh You fed your ego off my pain Turned every scar into a chain But chains break loud when the pressure hits And baby—this is it You can run You can hide But your shadow’s stitched to mine This is your epitaph Screamed through a broken half Of every heart you left for dead Every word you never said Oh— We sing your name like a curse tonight Ten thousand voices in the city lights You wanted fame—now feel the wrath Welcome to your epitaph Your epitaph Your epitaph You built your throne from borrowed trust Cheap champagne and the taste of dust Thought you’d leave and I’d fade away But I came back like a hurricane Now the rooms shake when we arrive Middle fingers to the afterlife You can hear us from the underground Like souls dragging heaven down You can run You can hide But your ghost can’t leave this side This is your epitaph Screamed through a broken half Of every soul you left for dead Every night inside my head Oh— We sing your name like a war cry now With bloodshot eyes and a crowd this loud You wanted love—you got the wrath Welcome to your epitaph No graves big enough No flames hot enough To bury what you made of us Your epitaph… Your epitaph… Now every street sings back your sins This is your epitaph Carved into the black Of every sky you set alight Every dream you crucified Oh— Whoa-ohhh The whole crowd screams your name tonight Like a riot under stadium lights You wanted immortality—do the math Forever lives your epitaph Your epitaph… Your epitaph… Still echoing after the aftermath.
