Cut Werk - Not About You 

I can be your downfall
I can be your rage
I can twist your mind till you rattle in the cage
I can be your sin
Or I can be your fight
I can break you open or burn out your light
I can be the killer
I can be the prey
I can be the blood you’re wiping away
I can be 100 demons
I can be 100 lies
I can be anything, anything, anything
But wise
The hum of midnight's pressing on my skin
I’m burning out, but I can’t let it win
Talking to my shadow like it's all I’ve got
This love is a fever that I never sought
Fingers on the keys but they feel like stone
Praying for the silence so I’m not alone
I’m watching the clock, but I won’t give in
Resisting the pull while I cave within
You choose who will haunt you, whose voice you’ll obey
A lover or the hunger that drags you away
I know who’s lying in my bed tonight
A pen and a promise, sharp like a knife
The pages taste bitter, ink on my tongue
And every new story is an old song unsung
So I’m writing these lines, but they’re not about you
No, I swear they’re not about you
I can be your martyr
I can be a ghost
I can make you feel like you’ve lost what you need the most
Oh, I can be your saint
Or I can be your sin
I can leave you begging to crawl back in
I can be a stranger
I can be your home
I can be the wound that you can’t leave alone
I can be 100 whispers
I can be 100 screams
I can be anything, anything, anything
But free
You choose who will haunt you, whose voice you’ll obey
A lover or the hunger that drags you away
I know who’s lying in my bed tonight
A pen and a promise, sharp like a knife
The pages taste bitter, ink on my tongue
And every new story is an old song unsung
So I’m writing these lines, but they’re not about you
No, I swear they’re not about you
I can be your demon
I can be your fall
I can be the beast you fear or nothing at all
I can be shattered
Or I can be whole
I can be the secret that swallows you whole
I can be your ruin
I can be your hate
You can try to fix me, but it’s already too late
I can be the fire, I can be the ash
I can be anything, anything, anything
But past
