Numb to the Flame

Verse 1

Six long years built on a hollow stage

Learned to walk on borrowed lines

Played the part that fit inside the cage

Wore the crown until it bit my spine

Pre-Chorus

I could've burned the house down to the floor

Could've let the matches sing

But I held the ash and asked for more

Waited on the wrong to swing

Chorus

Nothing nothing I'm numb to the flame

Feel the fire crawl across my name

Nothing nothing I'm numb to the flame

Watch it burn I'm not the same

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh numb to it all

Oh-oh-oh watch the embers fall

Verse 2

Seventeen when we drew the line

Ink still wet on both our hands

Every promise that you called divine

Fell apart like shifting sand

Pre-Chorus

Did what you did now sleep in that bed

Made of every lie you sold

But the wreck you made inside my head

Is a house I've learned to hold

Chorus

Nothing nothing I'm numb to the flame

Feel the fire crawl across my name

Nothing nothing I'm numb to the flame

Watch it burn I'm not the same

Post-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh numb to it all

Oh-oh-oh watch the embers fall

Bridge

You thought you'd see me break and fall apart

Thought I'd beg for you to stay

Look at me now standing in the sun

The damage is done and the war is won

And I won't look away

Guitar Solo

Final Chorus

Nothing nothing I'm numb to the flame

Feel the fire crawl across my name

Nothing nothing I'm numb to the flame

Watch it burn I'm not the same

Outro

Nothing nothing

Six years gone in a breath

And I don't feel a thing

Nothing nothing
