**[Verse 1]** Empty trophy cases, ash beneath the dust You thought it was a crown, but it was hollow from the rust Beer tab snaps cold, thirteen years of lies Your tears on my skin like an open fire "It didn’t even hurt," you whisper so polite Just like the morning train counting dirty bills at night Tore your own bones just to keep my hunger fed Turned your hell into a gift and left the rest unsaid **[Pre-Chorus]** Who gave you leave to script my glory on your knees? Who let you play the savior in the dirt for me? Always the mastermind, untouchable and cold I swear to you tonight I’m ripping back the reins you hold **[Chorus]** I claim your every breath, I take back every night From this moment on, I’m the one who draws the line No more hidden wounds, no martyrs in the dark You built yourself a god, now face the fury and the spark Talk about "your choice," talk about "the plan" The hand that pushed me toward the light is trapped beneath my hand No mercy left to spare, no guilt to keep me meek Thirteen years of silence ends right here against your cheek **[Verse 2]** Leaning by the counter with that quiet feline stare Letting my shadow take the room without a care Yielding so smoothly, play the fallen king Hiding every thorn behind the innocence you bring Darling, I know the tide that runs beneath that grace You bow your head just to bait the next embrace Every roar of mine, every contract burned Already calculated, every twist and turn **[Pre-Chorus]** Do you love the altar, or the strings you pull above? Turned me into an idol just to ration out your love Think you gave away the keys and stepped into the shade? Don't be so naive I’m taking over the game you made **[Chorus]** I claim your every breath, I take back every night From this moment on, I’m the one who draws the line No more hidden wounds, no martyrs in the dark You built yourself a god, now face the fury and the spark Talk about "your choice," talk about "the plan" The hand that pushed me toward the light is trapped beneath my hand No mercy left to spare, no guilt to keep me meek Thirteen years of silence ends right here against your cheek **[Bridge]** Seven feet of shadow, locking every door Cutting off the exits you had planned before "Listen to me," I breathe against your neck, raw and tight "Whatever you say," you smile into the night Why is your pulse so steady, so unshaken and clear? Did I cage you in this room, Or did your scars lock me in your debt forever, my dear? **[Guitar Solo / Tension Build-up]** **[Chorus - Climax]** Give me back your breath, yield every single night! Tear up the neat confessions you were hiding in plain sight! Watch the titles burn, watch the world fall away You don’t get to bleed for me—stay awake and pay! Wipe that gentle mercy clean off your face Bow down to the beast you woke inside this place Even if we break, no one steps away! **[Outro]** Lock the door. No gods in this hall, no masters left to call. Just a wild beast guarding what he claims, And a puppeteer yielding to the chains, Pulling the thread as the shadows fall. [speaks]"Whatever you say... whatever you need." [soeaks]You whisper in the dark, Smiling the same secret smile from fourteen years ago.
