White X

[Intro]
Standing on the white x

[Verse 1]
People… act like I'm my own sequel
But what could be equal
To the love of my first song
They tell ya… nobody could come after you
With what you do
They say they see no end

[Chorus]
Back here, side of stage
Couldn't stay away
Locking up my heart in the cage
Nerves climb me every stair
Choking me to death
But I'm breathing through the smoke in the air
I'm higher, staring at the fire
Escape, so much left to say
I might take flame
Back in black again
So get lighting me up
Standing on the white x
With faces saying what's next
Standing on the white x

[Verse 2]
Silence… the voice that upsets my balance, hmm
It keeps telling me give up
What's handed back to me
I judge… myself for feeling way too much
I wear a sign saying, "Don't touch me"
But wear my skin for you to see

[Chorus]
Back here, side of stage
Couldn't stay away
Locking up my heart in the cage
Nerves climb me every stair
Choking me to death
But I'm breathing through the smoke in the air
I'm higher, staring at the fire
Escape, so much left to say
I might take flame
Back in black again
So get lighting me up
Standing on the white x
With faces saying what's next
Standing on the white x

[Outro]
Standing on the white x
Standing
Standing on the white x
