Voices crawling under my skin Whisper my name, drag me back in I wear a smile like a loaded gun Pulled by the weight of what I’ve done I try to stand, I try to run But the war inside has just begun Fight the demon in my head Feeding on the fear I’ve fed Every scar, every lie Still I rise, I won’t deny I bleed, but I won’t break This soul is more than you can take (I won’t break!) Hands are shaking, teeth are clenched Memories burned but never cleansed I stare the mirror in the eye See the truth I try to deny Fight the demon in my head Feeding on the fear I’ve fed Every scar, every lie Still I rise, I won’t deny I bleed, but I won’t break This soul is more than you can take (I won’t break!) I am the fire I am the flame I am the blame I am the pain But I decide Who I become I won’t be your chosen one Fight the demon in my head Feeding on the fear I’ve fed Every wound carved in bone Made me harder, made me whole I bleed, but I won’t break This war is mine and I’ll stay awake Yeah, I bleed, but I won’t break This war is mine, I’ll stay awake I walk the line Between dark and light Still alive Ready to fight I won’t break! ©️ by STRANGEDT
