[Verse 1] I tasted rust in my mouth Your name like a nail in my throat I held the pieces too long Now they cut every note Hands on the chain-link fence Watching my last light shake Every scar says "stay down" Every breath says "break" [Pre-Chorus] Hear it climb Hear it break I won't kneel I won't cave Raise your voice Raise it high The fear in my bones Has learned to fight [Chorus] The fear in my broken soul Won't take me whole Won't take me whole The fear in my broken soul I bite back hard I let it go (I let it go) [Verse 2] I wore the dark like a crown I wore the blame like steel But the fire in my shattered chest Still knows what's real Cold hands on my spine Still I stand in the storm You can call me wrecked I'll call it reborn [Pre-Chorus] Hear it climb Hear it break I won't kneel I won't cave Raise your voice Raise it high The fear in my bones Has learned to fight [Chorus] The fear in my broken soul Won't take me whole Won't take me whole The fear in my broken soul I bite back hard I let it go (I let it go) [Bridge] [Half-time] Feed me the dark I'll spit back flame Say my end I'll say my name Bass in my ribs Blood on the floor I was made for this Made for more [Breakdown] Break Break Bite through the pain Break Break I won't be chained Crash down Stand up I still remain The fear in my broken soul Can't keep me tame [Final Chorus] The fear in my broken soul Won't take me whole Won't take me whole The fear in my broken soul I bite back hard I let it go (I let it go) The fear in my broken soul Now watch me roar Now watch me roar The fear in my broken soul I was the wound Now I'm the sword (I'm the sword)
