Bow the Night

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I wore your smoke like chains Cold luck in my veins You knocked, I let you in Now I know your name You fed on my doubt You moved in my skin But I found the door And I’m locking it in [Pre-Chorus] I see your shadow shake At the edge of my flame You want my hands to tremble You want me tame But I got a harder heart And a louder pulse One step from the mirror And I call you false [Chorus] Bow, bow, bow Bow before me now Bow, bow, bow You don’t own this house I was born in the fire I rise from the black Bow, bow, bow And don’t come back (Bow before me now) [Verse 2] You wore my brother’s grin You wore my mother’s fear You hid in the radio Till I heard you near You made me bite my tongue You made me miss the sun But I learned your tricks And I came undone Then I came back clean With a scar and a plan I took my name in both hands Made a stand, made a stand [Pre-Chorus] I see your shadow shake At the edge of my flame You want my hands to tremble You want me tame But I got a harder heart And a louder pulse One step from the mirror And I call you false [Chorus] Bow, bow, bow Bow before me now Bow, bow, bow You don’t own this house I was born in the fire I rise from the black Bow, bow, bow And don’t come back (Bow before me now) [Bridge] [Breakdown] Now look at me Tell me what you see No chains, no leash Just my own dark beat I name my fear Then I shut the door It kneels in the corner Begging for more [Final Chorus] Bow, bow, bow Bow before me now Bow, bow, bow You don’t own this house I was born in the fire I rise from the black Bow, bow, bow And don’t come back Bow, bow, bow You’re under my thumb Bow, bow, bow The night has come (Bow before me now) (Bow before me now)
