[Verse 1] She read it in whispers In books she'd hide Every page a warning Of something inside Full moons and fever A name she couldn't say She called it a curse She prayed it away [Pre-Chorus] Locked every door Buried the key Afraid of the hunger That lives in me [Chorus] She called it a curse I call it a choice She silenced the sound I sharpen the voice She learned how to run I learned how to stay She feared what we are I live it every day I don’t disappear in the dark anymore I bring the dark with me I settle the score [Verse 2] She walked in the daylight But never felt seen Kept one eye on shadows And one in between They made her a monster Before she could choose So she tried to be smaller With everything to lose [Pre-Chorus] But I let it breathe I let it out What she held back I won't live without [Chorus] She called it a curse I call it a choice She swallowed her truth I cut through the noise She lived in their fear I turned it around Now when I walk in I own every sound I don’t disappear in the dark anymore I bring the dark with me I settle the score [Bridge] Bloodline Heartbeat Ancient in my veins She fought it I feed it I don’t feel the same Not broken Not haunted Not something to hide I am the hunger She buried alive [Final Chorus] She called it a curse I call it my name She tried to escape I step into flame She lived in the shadows Afraid to be free But I am the predator She couldn’t be I don’t disappear in the dark anymore I bring the dark with me I'm the monster at every door
