You came back mean With your hands in your coat Same old grin Same old smoke on your throat I kept your photo In the drawer by the sink Now it’s paper ash When I hear you think You say “move on” Like you didn’t leave dents Like you didn’t twist Every one of my friends Cold little ghost In the frame of my door I don’t owe you peace I don’t need this war Say it again Say it to my face You want my silence You want your place But I remember Every cut, every scar Every cheap excuse And the shape you are Bent gate You don’t get in Bent gate Keep your breath, keep your grin Bent gate I know what you did Bent gate That door stays hit Bent gate Say my name right Bent gate You don’t get the light Bent gate I buried that day Bent gate You don’t get to stay Now you act clean Like the floor never bled Like my hands weren’t shaking Over what you said You built your crown On a broken spine Then you call it truth When it crosses the line I seen that look When the mask starts to split You want me smaller You want me to sit But I grew teeth On the back of the pain Every bitter memory Still runs in my veins Say it again Say it to my face You want my silence You want your place But I remember Every cut, every scar Every cheap excuse And the shape you are Bent gate You don’t get in Bent gate Keep your breath, keep your grin Bent gate I know what you did Bent gate That door stays hit Bent gate Say my name right Bent gate You don’t get the light Bent gate I buried that day Bent gate You don’t get to stay No more sweet talk No more blame I know that pattern I know that game You feed on cracks You live on doubt But I pulled the nails And I cut you out Back up Back off That line is dead Back up Back off Get out my head Back up Back off I kept the key Back up Back off You’re not over me Bent gate You don’t get in Bent gate Keep your breath, keep your grin Bent gate I know what you did Bent gate That door stays hit Bent gate Say my name right Bent gate You don’t get the light Bent gate I buried that day Bent gate You don’t get to stay Bent gate Stay on the other side Bent gate I let that cold thing die Bent gate I’m done with your game Bent gate You can call my name
