Lyrics
[Intro] Ash on the altar, iron in the rain A quiet oath turning under the skin [Verse 1] You built a throne from every word I swallowed Measured my worth by the scars you left behind Now every lock you fastened on my breathing Breaks in my hands, one piece at a time [Pre-Chorus] I carried the weight I learned its shape But I won't kneel To wear your name [Chorus] I am the fault line under your foundation The buried spark beneath the frozen ground You can hold the walls until your fingers fracture But you can't keep the pressure down I won't be erased I won't be erased [Verse 2] The clock in the hallway skips another hour Dust fills the mouth of the house we knew I found my pulse beneath the failing power And heard it say what I was made to do [Pre-Chorus] No more retreat No borrowed breath I face the blade And choose what's left [Chorus] I am the fault line under your foundation The buried spark beneath the frozen ground You can hold the walls until your fingers fracture But you can't keep the pressure down I won't be erased I won't be erased [Bridge] Let it fall Let it split Every promise counterfeit No more chains No more crown Bring the whole thing down [Breakdown] Bite the dust Break the seal This is how the buried heal One last pull One last sound Bring the whole thing down [Final Chorus] I am the fault line under your foundation The buried spark beneath the frozen ground You can hold the walls until your fingers fracture But you can't keep the pressure down I rise from the wreckage you designed around me I carry the fire you tried to drown Call me broken, call me dangerous I am still here now I won't be erased I won't be erased [Outro] Ash on the altar, iron in the rain I leave the ruin without your name
