Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I carved your promise into glass Held it tight until it bled You called it love Called it chance Left your echo in my head Black roses on my bedroom floor Every petal hiding teeth You traced halos on my warpaint Then watched me fall beneath [Chorus] I thought you were the light to my darkness But you just drew new shadows on my skin Every word you threw was sharpened You were the cage I kept my heartbeat in Now I rise from the edge you designed Rust on my halo Steel in my spine Thought you were the light to my darkness You were just the storm behind my eyes [Verse 2] You dressed your cruelty in grace Silver tongue and quiet rage Turned my doubts into a prayer Then set fire to the page But every cut became a chart Lines that led me out of you I stitched my fractures into armor And walked right through [Chorus] I thought you were the light to my darkness But you just drew new shadows on my skin Every word you threw was sharpened You were the cage I kept my heartbeat in Now I rise from the edge you designed Rust on my halo Steel in my spine Thought you were the light to my darkness You were just the storm behind my eyes [Bridge] You don’t get to name my sorrow (no more) You don’t get to hold my flame (let go) I am not your broken church I am the choir and the quake (oh) [Chorus] I thought you were the light to my darkness Now I’m the fire burning through the glass Every step I take It hardens Turning all your poison into ash See me rise from the edge you designed Rust on my halo Steel in my spine Thought you were the light to my darkness I am my own dawn this time
