--- “BREAK THE FLAME” — Fictional Linkin Park Song [Verse 1 – Chester-style vocals] I feel the pressure rising, buried in my chest Another spark igniting from the words I never said You try to pull me under, but I can’t be contained I’m standing in the fire, but I’m not afraid [Pre-Chorus – Chester] ‘Cause every time I fall I’m burning brighter And every scar becomes a reminder [Chorus – Chester] Break the flame Let it burn through the shadows in my way I won’t live in the ashes of yesterday I’m done with the silence, done taking the blame I’ll rise again Break the flame [Verse 2 – Mike-style rap] You think the damage made me weaker— That the smoke would choke my lungs and leave me bitter But I’m past the point of breaking, I’m a different kind of sinner Turning every failure into fuel that burns bigger I’m sick of the doubts and the lines you drew I’m sick of the echo that sounded like you I’m stepping out from the cage you made Watch me walk through fire that you’re too afraid to face [Pre-Chorus – Chester] ‘Cause every time I fall I’m burning brighter And every scar becomes a reminder [Chorus – Chester] Break the flame Let it burn through the shadows in my way I won’t live in the ashes of yesterday I’m done with the silence, done taking the blame I’ll rise again Break the flame [Bridge – Chester + Mike] (Chester) I won’t be the one you keep contained I won’t disappear inside the pain (Mike) I’m lighting every match you threw away If you’re scared of fire— Stay out of the way [Final Chorus – Chester] Break the flame Let it burn through the shadows in my way I won’t live in the ashes of yesterday I’m done with the silence, done taking the blame I’ll rise again— Break the flame [Outro – Chester] I’m rising through the fire Yeah, I’m rising through the fire Break the flame ---
