Carve Your Name

Verse

Iron gate clangs shut behind the street light

Every window on my floor turned into ice tonight

Sirens count me out from what I left behind

Chest like a bellows keeping the fire in my spine

Pre-Chorus

Something cracks loose where the shadows meet

Counting down to something only the blood knows, can't repeat

Chorus

Carve your name into this frozen light

Burn until nothing left but the fight

Every heartbeat counts like it's my last line

Carve your name and let me disappear in time

Verse

Streetlamp flickers out under the weight of snow

Concrete cracks where the roots break below

Two in the morning and the whole city's asleep

Only I'm still counting every step

Tear down the walls built by hands of the past

Leave no evidence this ever could have lasted

Pre-Chorus

Something cracks loose where the shadows meet

Counting down to something only the blood knows, can't repeat

Chorus

Carve your name into this frozen light

Burn until nothing left but the fight

Every heartbeat counts like it's my last line

Carve your name and let me disappear in time

Bridge

I don't need a mirror to find out who I am

The whole block already knows what it stands for

So I'm not running from the things that made me scarred

I'm the one with the matches, the fire guard

Chorus

Carve your name into this frozen light

Burn until nothing left but the fight

Every heartbeat counts like it's my last line

Carve your name and let me disappear in time
