Lyrics
Oh
Oh-oh
Oh
Warm blood
They sold me a room with no windows
Called it peace, called it control
But I could hear the whole world knocking
In the pipes and in my bones
Then my name lit up in daylight
And the numbness left my hands
All that red beneath the silence
I was done dying where I stand
So I threw the lock into the morning
Let the real wind hit my lungs
No more shadows for a language
No more iron on my tongue
Warm blood
Breaking like the dawn in me
Warm blood
I don’t owe the night a thing
Hands high
Face turned to the full sun
Came back whole, came back for good
Built for the daylight
Built for the daylight
Warm blood
Oh-oh
Warm blood
Oh-oh
Built for the daylight
Oh-oh
Alive on purpose
Warm blood
I don’t need pain to look holy
Don’t need scars to make me sing
Don’t need a grave behind my eyelids
Just to make my heartbeat mean a thing
Let the dark keep all its theater
I won’t wear it on my face
There’s a pulse beneath the surface
And it sounds like my own name
So I stepped out past the old alarms
Let the bright side hit my eyes
Got that fire in my bloodstream
And it finally wants the sky
Warm blood
Breaking like the dawn in me
Warm blood
I don’t owe the night a thing
Hands high
Face turned to the full sun
Came back whole, came back for good
Built for the daylight
Built for the daylight
Warm blood
No shrine in my chest
No ghost in my mouth
No hand-me-down grief to drown me out
I got my own name and I say it loud
Open the doors
Open the ribs
Let every locked-up color in
I want the whole sky
I want it close
I want the real thing in my bones
Look at me now
Wide awake now
Warm blood
Breaking like the dawn in me
Warm blood
I don’t owe the night a thing
Hands high
Face turned to the full sun
Came back whole, came back for good
Built for the daylight
Built for the daylight
Warm blood
Oh-oh
Warm blood
Oh-oh
Built for the daylight
Oh-oh
Alive on purpose
Warm blood
