[Intro]
(Instrumental Solo)
[Verse 1]
Every face bleeds identical grey
Every promise rots on the tongue
They nailed this cage and named it home
I'll strike the match before the dawn is done
[Pre-Chorus]
I won't live by the lines they wrote
I won't choke on the quiet they voted
[Chorus]
I break every line they ever drew
I spit on every crown they ever knew
Let this rotten whole burn black and fall
I don't owe a goddamned thing at all
[Verse 2]
They whisper mercy after dark
Huddle behind the walls they stacked
Every hand that pressed my throat down low
Will feel the flame before the smoke blows
[Pre-Chorus]
No more prayers they want me to say
No more god they want me to fear
[Chorus]
I tear every chain they ever tied
I laugh when every king starts to cry
Let this broken world crack wide and break
There ain't a single thing left here to take
[Bridge]
You stood right there and watched them lie
You shut your eyes and let them try
Now you get exactly what you made
Don't you dare beg me to behave
[Solo]
(Instrumental Solo)
[Chorus]
I break every line they ever drew
I spit on every crown they ever knew
Let this rotten whole burn black and fall
I don't owe a goddamned thing at all
[Outro]
It all goes up in smoke tonight
Not a single one gets out alive
