"Gallows" lyrics

"Gallows"

What have you done
To judge what I've become?
Just another voice lost in the crowd
It's getting tired
This is going nowhere (You)
You only prey on the weakest (You)
You always sink the deepest
I'll be the hammer
The last nail in your coffin

The storm is ever-changing
But we weren't built to break

Coming back from the gallows (With blood in my eyes)
Left me to drown in the shallow (But I'm still alive)
Couldn't keep me buried under
You know, they say the higher you rise
The sharper the knives
The sharper the knives

And when you rain negativity
It spreads like a fucking plague
Can't stand the sound
So sick of you running your mouth

(You)
You only prey on the weakest (You)
You always sink the deepest
But we weren't built to break

Coming back from the gallows (With blood in my eyes)
Left me to drown in the shallow (But I'm still alive)
Couldn't keep me buried under
You know, they say the higher you rise
The sharper the knives

(The storm is ever-changing)
The storm is ever-changing
Life is like a hurricane
Surrounding
But we were never built to break

The storm is ever-changing
Life is like a hurricane
Surrounding
But we were never built to—
