[Intro] [distorted vocal effect] Hell is no more burning And the whole world's crumbling The fire went cold, but the hunger stayed Now watch the debt get paid. [Verse 1] See, I was the one with the worms in my stomach I was the one that you turned to for nothing [skips words] worried about first impressions [skips words] learned my lesson See, I was the one with the skin peeling off I was the one that was written off I was the one that had my haters winning Got to do better, God as my witness I’ve been crawling through the ash, searching for a sign But all I found were broken bones and a crooked spine Now the sky is turning black, the stars begin to fade I’m the only living soul in this masquerade. [Pre-Chorus] [low vocal register] I was the one I was the one I was the one I was the one I was the one I was the one I was the one I was the one [Chorus] [shouting vocals] Hell is no more burning And the whole world's crumbling And I'm standing tall Still here standing tall Hell is no more burning And the whole world's crumbling And I'm standing tall Still here standing tall [Verse 2] See, I was the one with the wool pulled over I was the one with the red eyes, bloodshot I was the one that was breaking my shoulders I was the one with the blisters and whatnot See, I was the one that was one step ahead of 'em I was the one with the lead feet, step on 'em See, I was the one that was one step ahead of 'em I was the one with the lead feet, step on 'em I watched the empires burn, I watched the cities fall I’m the last man standing, the writer on the wall No more demons in the dark, no more ghosts to fight I’m the master of the void, the king of the night. [Verse 3] The sulfur’s gone, the heat is dead, the air is freezing cold A different kind of story that has never been told I used to beg for mercy, I used to pray for rain Now I’m the one who’s laughing at the shadow of the pain The ground is splitting open, the oceans start to rise But I’m looking at the ruins with these hollow, empty eyes I survived the furnace, I survived the deep Now I’m the only promise that the universe can keep. [Bridge] Hell is no more burning And the whole world's crumbling And I'm standing tall Still here standing tall Hell is no more burning And the whole world's crumbling And I'm standing tall Still here standing tall The silence is the loudest thing I’ve ever heard I’m the final sentence, I’m the final word. [Chorus] Hell is no more burning And the whole world's crumbling And I'm standing tall Still here standing tall Hell is no more burning And the whole world's crumbling And I'm standing tall Still here standing tall [Outro] Still here standing tall Still here standing tall Still here standing tall Still here standing tall Still here standing tall Still here standing tall Still here standing tall Still here standing tall The fire is gone. The cold is here. But I’m still standing. Right here.
