1. BLEED TO SHINE

How long do we bleed to shine?

I wear a face they want to see
Dead inside, but I still bleed
I lose myself just to be seen
While killing what I need to be

I preach a faith I don’t believe
I curse the gods they made of me
I pray for peace I’ll never get
I hate the voice inside my head

Will you help me fall into?

I kill myself just to stay
Nothing left I want to save
We crossed the line
How long do we bleed to shine?

I burn slow but still I break
Ain’t one spark left you can take
Did we miss the sign
How long do we bleed to shine?

Tear it all down
no fucking grace
Cut the smile off my face

Don’t talk, I’ve heard enough
Choke on your fake self-love

Burn the praise, I want the pain
If I break, then let it stain

I kill myself just to stay
Nothing left I want to save
We crossed the line
How long do we bleed to shine?

I burn slow but still I break
Ain’t one spark left you can take
Did we miss the sign
How long do we bleed to shine?

I gave too much, forgot my name
Traded love for hollow fame
Built my worth on every scar
But I don’t know who the fuck we are

I killed myself to shine
The light is a lie
I died to survive
This ain’t a throne
It‘s where hope goes to die

I kill myself just to stay
Nothing left I want to save
We crossed the line
How long do we bleed to shine?

I burn slow but still I break
Ain’t one spark left you can take
Did we miss the sign
How long do we bleed to shine?

Fuck the throne, your crown has died
Now I burn alive inside
