[Verse 1] Soft voice Hard truth under my tongue Teeth marks On every word I’ve ever spun I light a match To every old excuse I kept Watch the smoke Spell out all the names I’ve left (behind) [Chorus] The first and greatest victory Is when I finally conquer me I break my own dark gravity And fall into my own mercy The first and greatest victory I drag my shadow to its knees Crown of thorns turns into heat I wear my scars like jewelry [Verse 2] Cold glass My face flickers in the pane Two eyes But they never look the same I draw a line Between the fear and what I want Step across Like I’m walking through a haunted dawn (oh) [Pre-Chorus] I hear the dark still calling Soft as a secret plea But I’m louder now than the hunger I won’t fall on my knees [Chorus] The first and greatest victory Is when I finally conquer me I break my own dark gravity And fall into my own mercy The first and greatest victory I drag my shadow to its knees Crown of thorns turns into heat I wear my scars like jewelry [Bridge] I’m the jinx I’m the cure in the mirror (so clear) Every monster that I chased Was getting nearer Pull the blade From the heart of my reflection Feel it fade As I turn and face the question Who am I When the fear runs dry? (hey) Who am I When I don’t need to hide? [Chorus] The first and greatest victory Is when I finally conquer me I break my own dark gravity And fall into my own mercy The first and greatest victory I drag my shadow to its knees Crown of thorns turns into heat I wear my scars like jewelry (oh) [Bridge] I’m facing every part of me In the dark I melt I melt (I drag my shadows into the light) Kiss the blade I held so tight The first and greatest victory Is to conquer myself Conquer myself
