[Intro] [Heavy Palm-Muted Guitar Riff] [Driving Bass and Thundering Drums Build] [Verse 1] Stuck inside the shambles of yesterday's lie, Swallowing the bitterness and choking on pride, Walking through the ruins where the fire used to burn, Tracing every lesson that I never cared to learn. [Pre-Chorus] Holding my breath as the pressure rises high, Tear it down and look compromise in the eye. Yeah, believing the bitter lies... [Chorus] Standing my ground where the heavy stones fall, Looking right into the face of it all. Caught in the middle of where I belong, Trading my silence to answer the call. [Verse 2] Pounding my fists on a door shut tight, Staring right down at the edge of spite. I'm walking the line that they said I would break, Counting the pieces I'm forced to forsake. [Guitar Solo] [Short, Piercing, Aggressive Lead Guitar] [Pre-Chorus] Holding my breath as the pressure rises high, Tear it down and look compromise in the eye. Yeah, believing the bitter lies... [Chorus] Standing my ground where the heavy stones fall, Looking right into the face of it all. Caught in the middle of where I belong, Trading my silence to answer the call. [Bridge] Shattering the glass in the palms of my hands, Stuck in the middle of sinking sands. Break the lock, let the venom bleed— This is all it takes, this is all I need. [Guitar Solo] [Massive, Dual-Harmony, High-Gain Shred Solo] [Chorus] Standing my ground where the heavy stones fall, Looking right into the face of it all. Caught in the middle of where I belong, Trading my silence to answer the call. [Outro] [Slow, Sludgy, Half-Time Breakdown Riff] No turning back... Let the venom bleed... Standing my ground... Standing my ground! [Massive Sustained Final Chord] [Feedback Fades Out] [Abrupt Drum Hit]
