DAMOCLES

[Intro]
Walk on the eggshells barefoot
They don't care if we bleed, the blood is the point
Girls like us don't get life jackets
Just concrete shoes

[Verse 1]
Less than a week after the trial began
She was thrown into the depths
Only the pure get a seat on the jury
Only the pure get just a slap on the wrist
The ice you walk on is thinning
The walls are closing in tighter
Think you're different from the rest?
They don't give girls like us life jackets

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't see the stars
All I see is the sword
The fall's a matter of time
The fall's a matter of time
A horse's hair separates
The end from everything
The fall's a matter of time
The fall's a matter of time

[Chorus]
And it snaps, and it falls
And when I open my eyes I'm alone
And I'm covered in blood
And it's back, and it falls
And when I open my eyes
I don't know where I am
I don't know where I am

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't see the stars
All I see is the sword
The fall's a matter of time
The fall's a matter of time
A horse's hair separates
The end from everything
The fall's a matter of time
The fall's a matter of time

[Chorus]
And it snaps, and it falls
And when I open my eyes I'm alone
And I'm covered in blood
And it's back, and it falls
And when I open my eyes
I don't know where I am
I don't know where I am
I don't know where I am
I don't know where I am

[Verse 2]
After a thorough process involving multiple actors over multiple years
I finally bled out the last drop of innocence
The thousandth cut shed no blood
The knife bent upon contact with the hardened bone
Exsanguinated
Still here but I didn't survive
The thing you're listening to was born when she died
Still here but I didn't survive
Still here but I didn't survive
The thing you're listening to was born when she died
Was born when she died, was born when she died
Was born when she died

[Outro]
They don't care if we bleed
The blood is the point
Girls like us don't get life jackets
Just concrete shoes
