Venom and Sacrifice

I learned your smile by the shape of the knife

Kept my hands clean,

paid the price

You set the table,

called it peace Left broken glass under my feet Every favor had

a fee Every prayer came back to me I counted exits in

your hall

Found my name scratched in the wall (ahhhh)

Tell me what you wanted

Tell me what I owed

You kept moving pieces

Till the board went cold I

am not your pawn anymore I walked out bleeding,

but I found the door Say my name like war,

I won't fall for it I

am not your pawn anymore (yeah)

Now I hear the venom

when you speak

Remind me again why I lived on the street They are liars

and just a con

Rook, knight, sacrifice your pawn

You made a cage from sympathy

Then sold the key right back to me

Check the king, clear the room

I won't crawl back to you

Let the old house burn in rain

Let me leave with my own name (ahhhh)

I am not your pawn anymore

I walked out bleeding,

but I found the door Say my name like war,

I won't fall for it

I am not your pawn anymore Not your pawn anymore

Not your pawn

anymore (yeah)
