Lyrics
Verse
Cracks in the mirror lines on my face
Keep tracing back to the things I never say
I drag my shadow room to room
Trip on the patterns that always end in you
You twist the knife with a casual laugh
Call it a joke then erase the aftermath
I wear the silence like second skin
Smile in the daylight come apart within
Bridge [low vocal register]
Every promise that I bent out of shape every sorry that arrived too late
I’ve worn these ruins like second skin pulling the seams from the inside in
Every echo trying to drag me back every memory sharpening the attack
I taste the fear but I hold my breath step from the ledge I mistook for rest
Chorus
Under my own skin I’m sinking fighting waves I built inside
If I’m going down I’m thinking this time I’ll choose the dive
Under my own skin I’m burning every rope I used to climb if I’m going down
I’m learning to leave this weight behind
I used to beg now I just breathe
Count every scar as something I leave
I’m not you're ending not you're excuse
I cut the rope and keep the bruise
I’m done being haunted by my own reflection
Done bleeding out for you're validation
I tear these habits from under my skin
If I have to burn to begin again
Verse 2
Cracked mirror in the bathroom light
Red eyes but I still stand straight
Teeth marks on every word I bite
I load my tongue then call it fate
Phone buzzes but I kill the sound
Old battles circling round and round
Those ghosts can talk to empty air
I’m not you're blame to wear
Bridge [low vocal register]
I’ve been my own cage my own key
Walked in circles just to feel I’m free
If this is the end of who I’ve been
Let the dark wash off not drag me in
I am not your wound to reopen I am not your weight to hold
If I have to break to be broken I’ll shatter what I was told
Chorus
Under my own skin I’m sinking fighting waves I built inside
If I’m going down I’m thinking this time I’ll choose the dive
Under my own skin I’m burning every rope I used to climb if I’m going down
I’m learning to leave this weight behind
I used to beg now I just breathe
Count every scar as something I leave
I’m not you're ending not you're excuse
I cut the rope and keep the bruise
I’m done being haunted by my own reflection
Done bleeding out for you're validation
I tear these habits from under my skin
If I have to burn to begin again
