[Intro]
Scars in the stone
Names burned away
Ash in my lungs
I’m still awake
[Verse 1]
Clock on the wall
Ticks like a threat
Prayers in a jar
Stale on the shelf
Screen in my hand
Selling me truth
Blood on the page
Came from myself
[Chorus]
Revelation in the rust in the sky
All the pretty little lies run dry
Tear the veil
Let the dead words die
Revelation when I open my eyes
[Verse 2]
Walked through the fire
Came out the same
Blamed every ghost
Gave them my shame
Mirror keeps laughing
Cracked at the frame
Saw it was me
Calling my name
[Chorus]
Revelation in the rust in the sky
All the pretty little lies run dry
Tear the veil
Let the dead words die
Revelation when I open my eyes
[Guitar Solo]
[Rhythms drop to half-time
Drums pounding under sliding power chords while the lead howls
Then climbs into a shredding run before choking back into the main riff]
[Bridge]
Strip it down
Nerve and bone
Every idol
Thrown from the throne
In the silence
Hear it speak
Truth is teeth
Tearing the weak (yeah)
[Chorus]
Revelation in the rust in the sky
All the pretty little lies run dry
Tear the veil
Let the dead words die
Revelation when I open my eyes
Revelation when I open my eyes (hey)
