[Verse 1] I keep a lock on my tongue But the black still finds a way Under my ribs, under my skin Where the hungry thoughts can stay I saw the pit look back at me Like it knew my name by heart Every bruise inside my chest Pulled me closer to the dark [Pre-Chorus] And I leaned in Yeah, I leaned in Past the tremble Past the fear [Chorus] I stare into the abyss I let it stare at me I wear the shadow like a crown Let the cold set me free (I stare into the abyss) (I let it stare at me) If I was born to break Then let me break at the seam [Verse 2] There’s a wolf in my breath at night There’s a storm in my calm hands I fed the ache, I fed the flame Till it learned to understand No halo left to save me now No soft light on my face I made a home in the hollow And I named that hollow grace [Pre-Chorus] And I leaned in Yeah, I leaned in Past the tremble Past the fear [Chorus] I stare into the abyss I let it stare at me I wear the shadow like a crown Let the cold set me free (I stare into the abyss) (I let it stare at me) If I was born to break Then let me break at the seam [Bridge] Pull me deeper I won’t fight I’ve kissed the edge I know the bite I don’t beg I don’t run I become What I’ve become [Final Chorus] I stare into the abyss I let it stare at me I wear the shadow like a crown Let the cold set me free (I stare into the abyss) (I let it stare at me) If I was born to break Then let me break at the seam
