Ashes In My Mouth

You trust me in your gospel, said I'd shine

But every prayer was poison in disguise

I swallowed faith like it was fire

Now I speak in smoke and razor wire

You called it love

I called it war

I bled for you

But not anymore

I've got ashes in my mouth from the lies you fed

Built a throne from my bones, now I rise instead

You wanted silence, I gave you screams

Now I haunt your heaven with shattered dreams

I'm not your martyr

I'm the flame you fear

Say my name and I'll reappear

You carved your name into my skin

Told me breaking was how healing begins

But I learned truth in the wreckage

Now I wear my scars like vengeance

You called it love

I called it war

I bled for you

But not anymore

I've got ashes in my mouth from the lies you fed

Built a throne from my bones, now I rise instead

You wanted silence, I gave you screams

Now I haunt your heaven with shattered dreams

I'm not your martyr

I'm the flame you fear

Say my name and I'll reappear

I burnt the altar, broke the chain

Took back my soul, rewrote the pain

You made a ghost, I made a God

Now every lyric is a light that roars

I've got ashes in my mouth from the lies you fed

Built a throne from my bones, now I rise instead

You wanted silence, I gave you screams

Now I haunt your heaven with shattered dreams

I'm not your martyr

I'm the flame you fear

Say my name and I'll reappear

Say my name and I'll reappear
