Fractured Bastion

I built a door from the weight on my chest Dug both

heels where the weak lines bent Clean hands shook,

then the knuckles went red I learned to breathe where the old

roof fell (ahhhh)

Hold me under, I sharpen my name Every scar learns to sing

through the strain Lift the ceiling,

let the wires break I am awake I rise where the world

said "collapse" My pulse is the beat that shatters traps No ghost

of yesterday holds my chain I forge my crown from the storm's

own rain

The floor gave way,

but I kept my teeth Bit down hard on the dust underneath

No throne waits for a heart that folds So I move like

iron through the cold

Hold me under, I sharpen my name Every scar learns to sing

through the strain Lift the ceiling,

let the wires break

I am awake (yeah)

I rise where the world said "collapse"

My pulse is the beat that shatters traps

No ghost of yesterday holds my chain

I forge my crown from the storm's own rain

No more bending

No more debt

Tear the verdict

From my neck (blegh)

If I fall, let the ground remember me Not as ash,

but a spark with teeth

Sing me out of the wreckage Drag the dawn through the breach

I rise where the world said "collapse" My pulse is the beat

that shatters traps No ghost of yesterday holds my chain I forge

my crown from the storm's own rain I rise where the world

said "collapse" My pulse is the beat that shatters traps No ghost

of yesterday holds my chain I forge my crown from the storm's

own rain

Forge it all Own it all Forge it all Own it all
