Burn the Echo

[Verse 1] Same street Same stain on the ceiling of my mind Old scenes Looping like they’re frozen in rewind I fed my fear Till it learned my name by heart Now it’s just Dust in the corners of the dark [Chorus] I burn the echo I bury the sound All of the ghosts that held me down I break the mirror I walk through the flame Lose every scar that spelled my name I burn the echo I bury the sound You can’t drag me back to that ground [Verse 2] Cold glass Handprint fading from the windowpane Thin glass Between who I was and who I became I carved my blame Into every silent night Now I watch Every letter disappear in white [Chorus] I burn the echo I bury the sound All of the ghosts that held me down I break the mirror I walk through the flame Lose every scar that spelled my name I burn the echo I bury the sound You can’t drag me back to that ground [Bridge] You were the weight in my lungs You were the stone in my chest I learned to breathe through the burn I learned to live in the wreck I stitch my name into now Not into what never was This is the cut of the cord This is the end of the cause (yeah) [Chorus] I burn the echo I bury the sound All of the ghosts that held me down I break the mirror I walk through the flame Lose every scar that spelled my name I burn the echo I bury the sound You can’t drag me back to that ground [Outro] [Guitars and synths swell Drums hit in half-time] Let the past fall Let the past fall Let the past fall Straight through the floor Last ash Rising from the ruin I outgrew I walk on And the dark can’t follow through
