Lyrics

[Chorus]
I'm chasing the pain just to feel alive
Burning bridges just to watch the fire survive
Every breath's a loaded gun I hide inside my chest
Praying for silence, but the noise won't rest
[Verse 1]
If I fall, would anyone know?
Will they see the cracks beneath the snow?
I'm a ghost in my own skin
Scratching at the walls, I'm caged within
[Refrain]
And I bleed in colors no one sees
Always cutting so deep, you would not believe
[Verse 2]
I'm counting shadows on the ceiling
Whispering things I shouldn't know
My hands are maps of wounds, and they are never healing
And every mirror showing different eyes
Glass cracks shattering under the weight of my disguise
Yeah, been tracing lines where rivers used to flow
Searching for my deathbed surrounded by the crows
[Chorus]
I'm chasing the pain just to feel alive
Burning bridges just to watch the fire survive
Every breath's a loaded gun I hide inside my chest
Praying for silence, but the noise won't—
[Chorus]
I'm chasing the pain just to feel alive
Burning bridges just to watch the fire survive
Every breath's a loaded gun I hide inside my chest
Praying for silence, but the noise won't rest
[Bridge]
My veins sing songs of broken souls
I crave the night to swallow me whole
Storms of force I can't contain
Waiting for the end to numb the pain
But dawn arrives with the same old taste
A hollow pulse in an empty space
[Bridge]
Tear me open, spill the black
There's no road that leads me back
Every heartbeat's out of tune
While I'm underneath the moon
And I bleed in colors no one sees
Cutting so deep you would not believe
[Refrain]
And I bleed in colors no one sees
Cutting so deep you would not believe
[Chorus]
I'm chasing the pain just to feel alive
Burning bridges just to watch the fire survive
Every breath's a loaded gun I hide inside my chest
Praying for silence, but the noise won't
[Chorus]
I'm chasing the pain just to feel alive
Burning bridges just to watch the fire survive
Every breath's a loaded gun I hide inside my chest
Praying for silence, but the noise won't rest
