[Verse 1] I kept the door unlocked For the thing I hid It paced in my blood Like a boot in the kid Old saints, old lies They never wore my skin I fed them my fear Now I let it in [Pre-Chorus] You call it poison I call it mine Every bruise I wear Is a silver sign [Chorus] I wear the dark inside I wear the dark inside Black mirror smile Black mirror smile I bite back fear I burn clean through I wear the dark inside And it looks like you [Verse 2] No halo, no apology No kneeling to the sun I learned to love the cracks Where the heavy part comes from Cold hands, sharp teeth I sharpened them myself If the world's a cage Then I am the one who held [Pre-Chorus] You call it poison I call it mine Every bruise I wear Is a silver sign [Chorus] I wear the dark inside I wear the dark inside Black mirror smile Black mirror smile I bite back fear I burn clean through I wear the dark inside And it looks like you [Bridge] So let the alarms ring out Let the clean ones run I made a crown from thorns And I wore it like a gun I am the crack in the wall I am the flood in the frame I don't need saving now I learned my own dark name [Final Chorus] I wear the dark inside I wear the dark inside Black mirror smile Black mirror smile I bite back fear I burn clean through I wear the dark inside And it looks like you Black mirror smile Black mirror smile I wear the dark inside I wear the dark inside
