​​[Verse 1] I used to thrive in the middle of the wreckage Drinking poison just to send a message My own worst enemy, a king of the dark But you found the pilot light and fanned a spark ​[Pre-Chorus] Tear down the Walls! Poison in the Vein! I’m ripping out the Roots! I’m burying the Pain! ​[Chorus] I’m putting down the matches, I’m building us a home No more standing alone! Loving you is the only truth I’ve ever known Watch the seeds grow! I’m killing off the ghost of the man I used to be For the first time, I like the reflection I see! ​[Verse 2] There’s a breakfast table and a quiet hall No more holes punched in the drywall I’m trading the whiskey for a Sunday afternoon I never thought I’d learn to sing a different tune ​[Bridge] Protect. Provide. I Buried the Hate Inside. The Toxicity? Dead. I've got a family to feed instead! I’m staying for you... I’m staying for us... Staying for US! ​[Final Chorus] I’m putting down the matches, I’m building us a home No more standing alone! Loving you is the only truth I’ve ever known Watch the seeds grow! I’m killing off the ghost of the man I used to be For the first time, I like the reflection I see! ​[Outro] Look at what we built... The anchor and the bloom. No more poison... just US!
