Lyrics

INTRO

Instrumental

VERSE 1

You didn’t run you unmade your outline

Left all your weight behind to cave my chest

I breathe you in like poisoned air at midnight

Still warm against my lungs, still there, still there

PRE-CHORUS

I memorized the shape of your absence

More fluent than anything you said

I learned your silence like a language

And it lives inside my head

CHORUS

You carved your exit through my days

And named it mercy, named it clean

If you speak my name, let it split your throat

Taste the ruin you set free

You called it grace, I call it leaving

Don’t bless me with the blade you used

You called it grace, I call it leaving

Don’t bless me with the blade you used

VERSE 2

I tried to harden, tried to rot you out

But my hands don’t know that kind of prayer

All I learned is how to open up

And let the red do all the talking there

You walk untouched, a quiet infection

Living where you shouldn’t be

You leave no fingerprints on the damage

But you left it all in me

BREAKDOWN | HALF-TIME

In my wounds, you’re still breathing

In my chest, you’re still feeding

In my wounds, you’re still breathing

In my chest, you’re still feeding

CHORUS

You carved your exit through my days

And named it mercy, named it clean

If you speak my name, let it split your throat

Taste the ruin you set free

You called it grace, I call it leaving

Don’t bless me with the blade you used

You called it grace, I call it leaving

Don’t bless me with the blade you used

CHORUS (EXTENDED)

You carved your exit through my days

And named it mercy, named it clean

If you speak my name, let it split your throat

Taste the ruin you set free

You called it grace, I call it leaving

Don’t bless me with the blade you used

Don’t bless me with the blade you used

Don’t bless me with the blade you used

BRIDGE | BUILD

If love crawls out of this alive

It’ll limp with teeth marks in its skin

I’d strike the match again not to burn

Just to watch you flinch before you win

CHORUS

You carved your exit through my days

And named it mercy, named it clean

Say my name, then swallow every shard

Of what you left in me

You called it grace, I call it leaving

Don’t bless me with the blade you used

Say my name, then swallow every shard

Of what you left in me

OUTRO

No benediction, no relief

Just your “grace” grinding in my teeth

No benediction, no relief

Just your “grace” grinding in my teeth

END
