Breakdown

Bite down on the rust you fed me

Bite down and swallow the wire

I was the wall you leaned your weight against

Now I am the weight

I am the weight

Verse 3

You built your house on a fault line

Called it mercy, called it mine

Every promise had a price tag

Every kindness had a knife inside

I counted every debt you never paid

I sharpened every word you never said

Pre-Chorus

So come and take it back

(Come and take it back)

Come and take it all

(Take it all)

You wanted something you could break

Well here I am, still standing in the fall

Chorus

Drag me under, I'll drag you down

Nothing left to bury in this ground

You wanted blood, you wanted proof

Now the teeth are out and the jaw is loose

Drag me under, I'll drag you down

(Down, down, down)

Drop

Break

Break

Break it open

Break

Bridge

Sixteen years of holding still

Biting through the bit until

The iron gave and I could feel

Something other than the will

To keep the quiet, keep the peace

Keep the animal on its leash

I am not your leash

I am not your leash

Guitar Solo

Verse 4

I found the nerve beneath the scar

I found the shape of what you are

A hollow thing that needs a host

A hunger wearing someone else's ghost

You can keep the crown, I'll keep the cost

You can keep the war you thought you won

Pre-Chorus

So come and take it back

(Come and take it back)

Come and take it all

(Take it all)

You wanted something you could break

Well here I am, still standing in the fall

Chorus

Drag me under, I'll drag you down

Nothing left to bury in this ground

You wanted blood, you wanted proof

Now the teeth are out and the jaw is loose

Drag me under, I'll drag you down

(Down, down, down)

Post-Chorus

No

No

No more

No

Outro

I let it go

I let it rot

I let the whole thing

Come apart

Every nail

Every bone

Every thing you called your own

I let it go

(I let it go)

I let it rot

(I let it rot)

Nothing left

Nothing left

Nothing left to hold
