Lyrics
[Intro] [drums and bass alone Guitars fade in] Count it in One shot Right now Or rot [Verse 1] Clock’s tickin’ like a bomb in my rib cage Eyes locked I’m a razor on the red line Scars talk But I’m laughing at the dead weight I cut loose Leave the quitters on the sidelines Teeth grit Black tape on my fingers Cold sweat But the fire still lingers [Pre-Chorus] You feel that? That tremor in your spine This is the break in the baseline The thin line Between fear and the finish Between “can’t” and “I did this” [Chorus] Blood on the deadline I’m crossing that line I’m crossing that line (hey!) Built for the flatline I come back alive I come back alive (woah!) Hands up in the night sky We’re ready to die We’re ready to rise (hey!) Blood on the deadline Say my name When I claim that line [Verse 2] Steel nerves I was forged in the backlash Trash talk Turn the noise into jet fuel Cheap words Don’t survive in the whiplash I break glass Every time that I break through Jaw set Heartbeat like an engine One step From the legend I’m inventing [Pre-Chorus] You hear that? The crack before it breaks This is the moment the ground shakes The last taste Of your doubt on your tongue Spit it out Gotta breathe to be young [Chorus] Blood on the deadline I’m crossing that line I’m crossing that line (hey!) Built for the flatline I come back alive I come back alive (woah!) Hands up in the night sky We’re ready to die We’re ready to rise (hey!) Blood on the deadline Say my name When I claim that line [Bridge] [band drops to drum + vocal] I don’t fold (I don’t fold!) I don’t break (I don’t break!) I don’t bow (I don’t bow!) I don’t wait (I don’t wait!) [full band slams back in] All in When I hit that wall All in ‘Cause I want it all All in Hear the crowd stand tall All in (We don’t fall, we don’t fall!) [Chorus] Blood on the deadline I’m crossing that line I’m crossing that line (hey!) Built for the flatline I come back alive I come back alive (woah!) Hands up in the night sky We’re ready to die We’re ready to rise (hey!) Blood on the deadline Say my name When I claim that line [Outro] [dramatic stop Vocals over ringing chord] Blood on the deadline I was born For the deadline
