Lyrics:
How long do we bleed to shine?
I wear a face they want to see
Dead inside, but I still bleed
I lose myself just to be seen
While killing what I need to be
I preach a faith I don’t believe
I curse the gods they made of me
I pray for peace I’ll never get
I hate the voice inside my head
Will you help me fall into?
I kill myself just to stay
Nothing left I want to save
We crossed the line
How long do we bleed to shine?
I burn slow but still I break
Ain’t one spark left you can take
Did we miss the sign
How long do we bleed to shine?
Tear it all down
no fucking grace
Cut the smile off my face
Don’t talk, I’ve heard enough
Choke on your fake self-love
Burn the praise, I want the pain
If I break, then let it stain
I kill myself just to stay
Nothing left I want to save
We crossed the line
How long do we bleed to shine?
I burn slow but still I break
Ain’t one spark left you can take
Did we miss the sign
How long do we bleed to shine?
I gave too much, forgot my name
Traded love for hollow fame
Built my worth on every scar
But I don’t know who the fuck we are
I killed myself to shine
The light is a lie
I died to survive
This ain’t a throne
It‘s where hope goes to die
I kill myself just to stay
Nothing left I want to save
We crossed the line
How long do we bleed to shine?
I burn slow but still I break
Ain’t one spark left you can take
Did we miss the sign
How long do we bleed to shine?
Fuck the throne, your crown has died
Now I burn alive inside

Lyrics:
A dirty secret
An ashtray you leave out
We wouldn’t want them to hear that
Well there’s trail that I found and snuffed it out
We wouldn’t want you to feel bad, would we?
Right on the outside
Left looking in
Why don’t we play pretend?
I barely avoid
The hell of the crown I wear
Well how did we get this far?
My head in the void
It hangs in the atmosphere
Well how did we get this far?
I’d never tell if they ask me
[zippermouth]
We wouldn’t want them to hear that
I taste the metal and try to keep it down
We wouldn’t want you to feel bad, would we?
Right on the outside
Left looking in
Why don’t we play pretend?
I barely avoid
The hell of the crown I wear
Well how did we get this far?
My head in the void
It hangs in the atmosphere
Well how did we get this far?
I’d never tell if they ask me
I’d never tell if they ask me
[zippermouth]
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Tie me down and let me be emotional
Eyes up, now move me through the motions
Just lie to me, I’m sick and way too tired
Broken or breaking ‘til we open
I barely avoid
The hell of the crown I wear
Well how did we get this far?
My head in the void
It hangs in the atmosphere
Well how did we get this far?
How did we get this far?
How did we get this far? THE DARK.FM - [zippermouth] (Smash Stereo Remix) (OFFICIAL VIDEO)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/iv1qVP511FY/mqdefault.jpg)
