Acid Rain Puppet

Verse 1

Your voice in my head like a knife in the dark

Whispers in my bloodstream lighting every spark

Hands on my throat but you call it love

Angel in the daylight, demon above

I tried to breathe but the air turned thin

Every sweet word was another sin

You pulled the strings while I danced in pain

Like a puppet drowning in acid rain

Pre-Chorus

My chest caves in, heart racing wild

Panic in the bones of a broken child

Every step back you drag me again

Your hook buried deep in my skin

Chorus

Love like hellfire burning my brain

Tangled in your chains going insane

Kick, scream, fight through the pain

Ripping your poison out of my veins

You had me shaking, losing control

Teeth in the heart of a starving soul

But I’m tearing the hook from under my skin

I’d rather bleed than love you again

Verse 2

Anxiety thunder inside my chest

Every heartbeat a survival test

Your shadow crawls through every room

Perfume and gasoline, love and doom

I fought myself more than I fought you

Truth in the mirror I never knew

The war was louder inside my head

Than every cruel word you ever said

Breakdown / Bridge

No more chains

No more lies

No more screaming in the night

I hear my pulse like a battle drum

This war between who I was and who I’ll become

You tried to break me

Tried to own my breath

But I crawled through hell

And I strangled death

Final Chorus

Love like hellfire burning my brain

You fed on my fear, you fed on my pain

But I kicked and clawed through the hurricane

Now your hook holds nothing but empty chains

I’m breathing again

I’m breaking the spell

I walked through your love

And I crawled out of hell.
