Black and blue

When the mirror shows a stranger And the voices in my head scream "failure" When the bottle's empty, heart's a chamber Full of bullets that I fired at myself You walk in slow, no judgment in your eyes Cut through the smoke, see the truth behind the lies Pull me from the edge when I'm ready to die Light a spark in the dark - yeah, you keep me alive I was drowning in the silence Broken pieces, no defiance Then you hit me like a siren Woke the beast, now I'm rising That's the fire in you Burning through the black and blue When the whole damn world turns against me You're the only one who defends me That's the fire in you Savage, raw, and fucking true In this war I'm fighting solo You reload my soul - the wonder of you Yeah, they laugh when I fall, spit on my name Call me washed up, say I'll never be the same But you grab my collar, scream "get back in the game" Your touch is thunder, your words cut like flame When the nights get cold and the demons parade You don't pray for me - you load the grenade Kiss the scars on my soul, say "this ain't the end" Turn my pain into power, now I'm breaking the chain I was drowning in the silence Broken pieces, no defiance Then you hit me like a siren Woke the beast, now I'm rising That's the fire in you Burning through the black and blue When the whole damn world turns against me You're the only one who defends me That's the fire in you Savage, raw, and fucking true In this war I'm fighting solo You reload my soul - the wonder of you I'll never understand why you stay When I push you away, when I ruin the day But you smile through the chaos, say "baby, it's okay" Your love is the only law I obey... That's the fire in you! Burning through the black and blue When the whole damn world wants me broken You turn my hell into hope unspoken That's the fire in you! Savage, raw, and fucking true In this war I'm fighting solo You reload my soul - the wonder of you The wonder of you... The wonder of you...
