Lyrics

Gold on my hands
Blood on the inside
Standing on a ladder
That I swore I didn't climb
Every framed little victory
Feels like a forged ID
I'm the name on the trophy
With someone else's silhouette
Every compliment
Is a loaded question
Every quiet room
Is an interrogation light
I keep waiting for the words
"Everything's been a mistake"
Pack your bags
Pack your pride
Hand it all back tonight
Cut my name from the marble (tear it out)
I've been wearing this hollow crown
Every cheer is a funeral hymn
For the parts of me I had to drown
If I'm just a ghost in a borrowed skin
Then why do these scars feel earned?
I'm a house built on the fault line
Shaking
But I still won't burn
I walk through the hallway
Of my own achievements
Reading every plaque
Like a crime scene note
Every step is a courtroom
Every thought on trial
And the jury in my head
Wants a public throat
I keep hiding in hard work
Like sandbags on a levee
But the river of doubt
Keeps climbing the wall
If success is a mirror
Then mine's cracked to pieces
I see everyone I'm not
Staring back through it all
Cut my name from the marble (rip it off)
I've been wearing this hollow crown
Every cheer is a funeral hymn
For the parts of me I had to drown
If I'm just a ghost in a borrowed skin
Then why do these scars feel earned?
I'm a house built on the fault line
Shaking
But I still won't burn
I am the lie that I never told
A counterfeit heart in a ring of gold
Peel back the paint
Find the rust in the frame
I built a throne out of panic
Then sat there in shame
If I don't deserve this
Why does it hurt so deep?
If I never earned this
Why did I bleed in my sleep?
If I'm just pretending
Why's the weight so real?
Maybe grace is the debt
That I'll never
Ever feel
So carve my name in the marble (leave it there)
Let me carry this heavy crown
Every cheer is a warning flare
For the days when I spiral down
If I'm just a ghost in a borrowed skin
Then watch how the phantom learns
I'm a house built on the fault line
Cracked
But I still
I still won't burn (won't burn)
