Ashes In My Teeth

[Verse 1] I woke up in the wreckage With blood on my name Room full of broken mirrors All of them say the same My chest like a casket My hands still shake Every pill I ever swallowed Still tastes like ache I heard the wolves in my head They knew my face They said, "You don't get out You just fade away" I kept my mouth shut Kept my teeth locked tight But the fire in my throat Wants to bite tonight [Pre-Chorus] And I fell, fell hard Past the edge, past the line Now the dark wants my pulse But it never gets mine I can hear that crack In the bones of my faith Still I claw up slow From the pit it made [Chorus] I rise from the ash I rise from the ash You can't keep me there You can't keep me there I rise from the ash I rise from the ash Break me again I'll come back harder [Verse 2] Trauma in my bloodstream Rage in my lungs Old scars talk loud When the night comes undone I chased that numb Like a dog on chain Till the floor gave way And I met my pain Whisper, "Don't run" I can hear it now Tortured and thin But I'm still around I been dead in the mirror Dead in the bed Still I ripped through the ruin And I raised my head [Pre-Chorus] And I fell, fell hard Past the edge, past the line Now the dark wants my pulse But it never gets mine I can hear that crack In the bones of my faith Still I claw up slow From the pit it made [Chorus] I rise from the ash I rise from the ash You can't keep me there You can't keep me there I rise from the ash I rise from the ash Break me again I'll come back harder [Bridge] [Whispered] I know the shape of the grave I know the taste of the fall I kissed the floor with my mouth shut I heard the devil call [Screamed] But I'm not your victim I'm not your stain I burned to the bone Now I wear the flame! [Final Chorus] I rise from the ash I rise from the ash You can't keep me there You can't keep me there I rise from the ash I rise from the ash Break me again I'll come back harder I rise from the ash I rise from the ash Dead to the old me Alive in the scars I rise from the ash I rise from the ash Break me again I'll come back harder
