The Part That Learned to Scream (by Talking in Reverse)

Verse 1

Used to hold my breath when the lights went down

Every word was a wall I built around

Now the ceiling's caving in slower than the rain

Rain I never let myself feel

Pre-Chorus

And I keep digging underneath

Looking for the part I lost

The part that learned to scream

Chorus

Cracked bones and the bitter blame

I carry both the weight and the name

Tear it open

Tear it open again

Post-Chorus

(Again)

(Again)

Verse 2

Momma said stay quiet when the thunder rolls

So I swallowed all the fire in my throat

But the embers took a hold

Took a hold down to the bone

Pre-Chorus

And I keep digging underneath

Looking for the part I lost

The part that learned to scream

Chorus

Cracked bones and the bitter blame

I carry both the weight and the name

Tear it open

Tear it open again

Bridge

Let the fractures sing

Let the marrow ring

I was built from broken things

Broken things

Broken things

Chorus

Cracked bones and the bitter blame

I carry both the weight and the name

Tear it open

Tear it open again

Outro

(Again)

(Again)

Tear it open
