Ash In My Veins lyrics

I fed the fire Then called it home Now my hands shake When I'm alone It eats my sleep It cuts my skin A war inside I can't outrun Not some king Not some beast It's my own mouth Biting me Old wounds wake They want their due I stare them down I stare at you Let it go Let it go Let it go, now Let it go Break these chains Break these chains Break them off Right now It broke the chair It broke the table It broke the trust At every label My mother cried My child learned fear My home grew cold From year to year I wore the shame Like iron nails I kept on losing And called it hell Not some king Not some beast It's my own mouth Biting me Old wounds wake They want their due I stare them down I stare at you Let it go Let it go Let it go, now Let it go Break these chains Break these chains Break them off Right now If I have to crawl I'll crawl in light If I have to bleed I'll choose to fight I am not What hurt me then I am the hand That ends this end Let it go Let it go Let it go, now Let it go Break these chains Break these chains Break them off Right now Let it go Let it go Let it go, now Let it go I choose life I choose life I choose me Right now
