Lyrics
Verse 1
Chrome
Cold steel
Biting through the thick bone
Red on the tile
My hands shake but my heart is ice
I took a life
I stole a breath
Then I lit a leaf to numb the death
Smoke fills my lungs
Thick clouds
Grey
Heavy
Hiding what I did today
Chorus
Wash it away
Lord let the fire burn the rot
Wash it away
Everything I did and what I’m not
I need the light
I need the light
I need the light
To kill the ghost inside the fight
Post-Chorus
Cleanse me
Save me
Cleanse me
Save me
Verse 2
Skin
Silk sheets
Losing my soul in the heat
She tastes like sin
Bitter
Sweet
Forbidden
Dragging my spirit to the pavement
I’m a slave
I’m a wreck
Broken medals round my neck
Shadows grow tall
They talk
They scream
Tearing at the edges of the dream
I see the devil in the glass
Lurking
Waiting
Watching all the minutes pass
Chorus
Wash it away
Lord let the fire burn the rot
Wash it away
Everything I did and what I’m not
I need the light
I need the light
I need the light
To kill the ghost inside the fight
Post-Chorus
Cleanse me
Save me
Cleanse me
Save me
Bridge
Cut the ties
Burn the lies
Watch the demon as it dies
I’m climbing out the pit
I’m reaching for the throne
I’m tired of being hollow
Tired of being stone
Forgive the blood
Forgive the bed
Forgive the smoke inside my head
Chorus
Wash it away
Lord let the fire burn the rot
Wash it away
Everything I did and what I’m not
I need the light
I need the light
I need the light
To kill the ghost inside the fight
Outro
Lift me up
Out the dark
Catch the spark
Home
Finally home
Lord
I’m coming home
