I lit the match with shaking hands
Then prayed the fire wouldn't burn too long
A choir of everything I did wrong

I kissed the blade I swore I'd throw away
Promised you light, but fed you gray
I loved my wounds like they were gold
But now I bury what I can't hold

I drink the venom dressed in honey
A requiem still sings for me
The shattered truth turns into silence
And shadows write the end for me

I stood in silence at the edge again
The fall looked softer than the climb
I broke the glass I used to breathe through
And bled out everything I used to believe

So here's the end, no curtain call
Just ashes whispering through the hall
If I'm the ghost inside this skin
Let this be the breath that starts again

I drink the venom dressed in honey
A requiem still sings for me
The shattered truth turns into silence
And shadows write the end for me

I drink the venom dressed in honey
A requiem still sings for me
The shattered truth turns into silence
And shadows write the end for me
