Blackwire Vow - Burn Pattern (Ashes Version)

I still flinch when the floorboards breathe Still count exits with my teeth Still hear names I buried deep Still have nightmares when I sleep You don’t forget where the fire began When it wore the face of a trusted hand When love came home with a loaded voice And taught your body it had no choice I learned silence like a fucking prayer Held my breath in the poisoned air Made myself small, made myself stone Made a grave out of being alone But the scar kept talking The nerve kept screaming The child in the ashes Never stopped breathing I know the shape I know the brand I know what evil feels like When it calls itself a hand This is my burn pattern Look at what you made Every fucking scar is a map Of the hell I escaped This is my burn pattern Branded under my skin You can see where I was broken But I crawled back out again I was the joke, I was the bruise I was the kid they loved to abuse Mouth full of blood, eyes on the ground Learning how not to make a sound You called it weakness, called it shame Put your bootprint on my name But I kept a spark where it couldn’t be seen And raised that bastard on gasoline Now the scar starts talking The nerve starts singing The ghost in the damage Comes back swinging I know the room I know the smell I know how heaven looks When it leaves you in hell This is my burn pattern Look at what you made Every fucking scar is a map Of the hell I escaped This is my burn pattern Branded under my skin You can see where I was broken But I crawled back out again I survived you I survived you I survived you I survived I survived you I survived you I survived you Still alive There’s a child in the back of my skull Still waiting for the door Still asking if the pain is done Still curled up on the floor I won’t tell them it was nothing I won’t call the damage grace I won’t forgive the fire Just to make the ashes safe Come here, little ghost Stand up, little flame We are not what happened We are not their fucking shame Come here, little ghost Breathe through the smoke They tried to make us disappear But the pattern never broke I am the scream you didn’t kill I am the blood that learned to spill I am the wound that grew a jaw I am the child you never saw I am the house that wouldn’t fall I am the writing on the wall I am the thing you left for dead With a war drum in my chest Fuck your silence Fuck your blame Fuck your mercy Fuck your name This is my burn pattern This is my burn pattern This is my burn pattern Branded under my skin This is my burn pattern Branded under my skin You can see where I was broken But I crawled back out again This is my burn pattern This is proof I stayed I walked out of the fire With my shadow unafraid This is my burn pattern This is where I begin You can see where I was broken You can’t say I didn’t win Blackwire Vow A project by Zer0signal & Kai Hoshira Created using both real and AI tools
