You set my world on fire, it's time to run away
Through the soil you torched, to the horizon
My hopes and dreams they died
But now I’m justified
I won't drag your weight any longer

Cut me loose
I’m trying to let go of everything
You’ve tied my noose
But now your rope’s unraveling

It’s hard to breathe with your hands around my neck
Around my neck, you’re killing me
It’s hard to know when you’re behind me
It’s hard to bury this hatchet when it’s in my back

You raised your walls so you could hide your past
Made ‘em out of glass and they’re shattering
It’s hard to bury this hatchet when it’s in my back it's in my back

It’s hard to breath, with your hands around me, hands around me
It’s hard to know, You’re always behind me

You left my spirit torn, Tired and all alone
My heart is frozen, colder than frostbite
I’ve gathered every stone
That you have ever thrown
Used them to build my road
While you sink under

Look me in the eyes
The only one prepared to die
The damage is already done
You best get your hatchet
This battle has just begun
