Lyrics

Verse 1

Tightened rope

Lungs are full of icy water and regret

Keeping score

You win a crown of broken glass

Watch me crumble under your thumb

I fold

My heart is leaking black ink

Staining every single memory we ever had

Walking fast

Moving slow

Tired bones

Left alone

Pre-Chorus

Falling through the seams of my skin

Letting every lie sink in

Holding onto air

There is nothing left to share

Chorus

Give me back the color of my sight

Fix the broken prism in the night

Tell me I can make it right

I can make it right

Open up the door

Show me something more

Help me win the war

Show me something more

Drop

Something more

Help me win the war

Verse 2

Ripping up the blueprint while I talk to my shadow

Fighting for a minute in the middle of a battle

Maybe I am honest

Maybe I am lost

Paying every debt and I am adding up the cost

I can feel the cold creeping in from the hallway

Every single person always moving in a small way

Shattered on the table

Stable as a candle

Everything is spinning way too fast for me to handle

Pre-Chorus

Falling through the seams of my skin

Letting every lie sink in

Holding onto air

There is nothing left to share

Chorus

Give me back the color of my sight

Fix the broken prism in the night

Tell me I can make it right

I can make it right

Open up the door

Show me something more

Help me win the war

Show me something more

Bridge

Maybe there is hope

High above the scope

Rising from the sinkhole

Trying to find a signal

Cracked but not ruined

Silent but not muted

I am finally waking up

Filling up the empty cup

Chorus

Give me back the color of my sight

Fix the broken prism in the night

Tell me I can make it right

I can make it right

Open up the door

Show me something more

Help me win the war

Show me something more

Drop

Something more

Win the war

Something more

Open up the door

Help me win the war
