How shorts the chain Before teeth meets skin Become a fixture for doubt That won't cave in Find pride in suffering And all I need to be Among the thorns I refuse to bleed See weakness from the outside Watch bone cave in They claw and claw They fight their way back in I refuse to be the fool For a world that doesn't want me I found the strength And now nothing will haunt me Through the razor wire I cut my teeth Just a void You never want to meet In the loss of light Became all I'm meant to be Its all or nothing And I refuse to plead Pull the chain Send me back The harder the bite The softer the gnaw You could've set me free. I refuse to be the fool For a world that doesn't want me I found the strength And now nothing will haunt me Felt the weight for long enough Bit my tongue when things got rough Theres strength when all you know is doubt You dragged me in Now I cut my way back out.
