Ashes in My Veins

(Verse 1)
I wear my scars like diamonds in the dark
Every broken promise left its mark
You called it love, I called it survival
Now I'm dancing with the ghosts of my revival

The mirror shows a stranger with my face
A fallen angel drowning in your grace
I gave you every piece you wanted stolen
Now all that's left is something cold and golden

(Pre-Chorus)
And I still hear your voice beneath my skin
Like a sickness that I never let you win

(Chorus)
So set me on fire, watch me burn alive
I'm the smoke you breathe, the reason you can't hide
You built your kingdom from the wreckage of my heart
Now I'm tearing down the walls that kept me in the dark

I won't be your savior
I won't be your sin
You left me for dead
Now watch me rise again

(Verse 2)
You loved the chaos living in my veins
Fed me your affection just to cause me pain
Every "forever" was another loaded weapon
A beautiful disaster dressed as heaven

The blood-red moon is hanging over me
A witness to the woman I became to be free
No more begging for the love you never gave
I found my strength buried in the grave

(Pre-Chorus)
And every nightmare that you left behind
Became the fuel that keeps me alive

I won't be your savior
I won't be your sin
You left me for dead
Now watch me rise again

(Bridge)
I was the girl beneath the water
Holding my breath for you
Now I'm the storm above the ocean
And I'm finally breaking through

You can't drown me anymore
You can't own me anymore
Every chain you wrapped around me
Is lying shattered on the floor

(Final Chorus)
Set me on fire, let the heavens see
The woman that your darkness couldn't keep beneath
You built your kingdom from the wreckage of my heart
Now I'm the flame that tears your empire apart

I won't be your savior
I won't be your sin
You left me for dead
Now watch me rise again

(Outro)
Watch me rise...
Watch me rise...
From the ashes in my veins...
