Lyrics
[Intro] Count the bolts in the concrete floor One for the lock, one for the door [Verse 1] You drew a line through the factory dust Said keep your head down, said learn who to trust I watched the foreman stamp my name wrong Then fed that paper to the furnace all night long [Pre-Chorus] I kept the number they gave me I kept the bruise they left Now every quiet order Gets swallowed by my breath [Chorus] I won't wear your mark I won't carry your weight You can close every gate I will break through the frame I won't bow to the hand That keeps tightening the chain Say my name like a warning I'll answer again [Verse 2] A red tag swinging from the breaker switch The lunchroom clock stuck at a quarter past six You took the last chair, you took the last word But the walls shook hard when the night shift heard [Pre-Chorus] I kept the number they gave me I kept the bruise they left Now every quiet order Gets swallowed by my breath [Chorus] I won't wear your mark I won't carry your weight You can close every gate I will break through the frame I won't bow to the hand That keeps tightening the chain Say my name like a warning I'll answer again [Breakdown] [Whispered] Hands on the table Eyes on the floor You say it's over I hear one more [Screamed] One more One more [Bridge] You built your kingdom out of borrowed time You made a rule, then called the rule divine I found the seam beneath the painted steel I know exactly what you tried to seal [Final chorus] I won't wear your mark I won't carry your weight You can close every gate I will break through the frame I won't bow to the hand That keeps tightening the chain Say my name like a warning I'll answer again [Outro] Count the bolts in the concrete floor No lock can hold me here anymore
