Lyrics
Verse 1
I stitched my soul with rusted wire,
Walked through fire just to feel alive,
Every word you threw was a loaded gun,
Now the echo’s louder than the damage done.
I taste the lie on the edge of truth,
Bite my tongue till it’s breaking loose,
You fed me hope like a parasite,
Now it’s clawing through my chest tonight.
Pre-Chorus
I gave you the dark, I gave you the light,
You took it all like it was your right.
Chorus
I’m a bleeding heart in a blackout cage,
Still screaming love in a violent rage,
Every beat hurts, every cut stays smart,
You carved your name in my bleeding heart.
I won’t fall quiet, I won’t fall apart,
I’m still standing tall with a bleeding heart.
Verse 2
You promised heaven in a mouthful of ash,
Glass in my veins, made of future and past,
I wore your sins like a second skin,
Let the poison teach me how to give in.
Now my shadow doesn’t look like me,
It wears your face in my misery,
I tried to drown in the words you said,
But they learned how to swim inside my head.
Pre-Chorus
I held the line while you crossed the war,
Left me counting what I’m fighting for.
Chorus
I’m a bleeding heart in a blackout cage,
Still screaming love in a violent rage,
Every beat hurts, every cut stays smart,
You carved your name in my bleeding heart.
I won’t fall quiet, I won’t fall apart,
I’m still standing tall with a bleeding heart.
Bridge
Cut me open, watch the truth spill out,
Every scar is a memory shouting,
I tried to break, I tried to burn,
But pain’s the only thing I never unlearn.
You took my faith, you took my name,
Left me dancing in the acid rain,
Still here, still breathing in the dark,
Built from bone and a bleeding heart.
Breakdown
Rip it out—
Watch it crawl—
Still alive through the crash and fall.
You don’t own me, you never did,
I’m the fire under broken ribs.
Chorus
I’m a bleeding heart in a blackout cage,
Still screaming love in a violent rage,
Every beat hurts, every cut stays smart,
You carved your name in my bleeding heart.
I won’t fall quiet, I won’t fall apart,
I’m still standing tall with a bleeding heart.
Outro
You tried to turn my blood to rust,
Turned my trust into dust,
But I beat on, torn and scarred—
Still alive…
With a bleeding heart.
