[Verse 1] Jaw clenched raw Teeth grinding dust from the dark Nails in the palm Lines in my skin like a map of scars Ceiling is a cage Breath stuck halfway in my throat Clock spits static seconds Each one heavier than bone [Chorus] I am the weight that drags me under Hands on my own neck Pulling me down Drowning in fear In hollow thunder Screaming in silence while my heart pounds Depression is a throne of splinters Anxiety The crown of rust I wear them both until I wither Crushed beneath my poisoned trust [Verse 2] Heart in a vise Pounding like it’s set to explode Sweat like cold rust Soaking through this second-hand soul Every open door Spits teeth Spits doubt Spits shame Every passing face Mouths my failures Chants my name [Chorus] I am the weight that drags me under Hands on my own neck Pulling me down Drowning in fear In hollow thunder Screaming in silence while my heart pounds Depression is a throne of splinters Anxiety The crown of rust I wear them both until I wither Crushed beneath my poisoned trust [Bridge] [Guitars drop to choked chugs Drums half-time] Skin feels wrong (tear it off) Brain is a swarm (shut it off) Shadow in the mirror Laughing as I rot [Breakdown] I am not okay I am not okay I am not okay Make this mind decay [Chorus] I am the weight that drags me under Hands on my own neck Pulling me down Drowning in fear In hollow thunder Screaming in silence while my heart pounds Depression is a throne of splinters Anxiety The crown of rust I wear them both until I wither Ashes of a broken trust
