Burning Alive

[Intro] [Verse 1] Ash in my teeth Skin tastes like rust You branded your name Right into my trust Knuckles on concrete Praying for a crack Anything at all To pull the flame back [Chorus] I’m burning alive In the shape of your hands You strike the match Then you call it a plan Scars spell your lies Down the length of my spine I’m burning alive But this fire is mine [Instrumental] [Verse 2] Breath comes in static Heart kicks the cage Every old promise Warps into rage You said I was safe Inside your smoke But I learned to breathe On the words you choked [Chorus] I’m burning alive In the shape of your hands You strike the match Then you call it a plan Scars spell your lies Down the length of my spine I’m burning alive But this fire is mine [Instrumental] [Bridge] Peel off the blistered past Let the raw truth show You built this wreck for me Watch me overthrow (hey!) [Chorus-Outro] I’m burning alive In the shape of your hands You strike the match Then you call it a plan Scars spell your lies Down the length of my spine I’m burning alive Yeah I’m burning alive I’m burning alive But this fire is mine [End]
