[Verse 1]
Stare at the shadow at the top of the frame
Never a crown, just a glimmer of shame
Turned from the mirror, tried running from pain
A memory flickers and calls out my name
All of the answers dissolve in the mist
Light at my back, but the truth always twists

[Pre-Chorus]
I know I’m breaking, I know I’m breaking
I know I’m breaking apart
I know I’m breaking, I know I’m breaking
I know I’m breaking apart

[Chorus]
(Oh no, it hurts) Every time I see the mask
(Oh no, I am) Everything I tried to pass
(Oh no, it hurts) Every time I see the mask
(Oh no, I am) Everything I tried to pass

[Refrain]
Climb until your hope is gone
Watch your strength become undone
Climb until your hope is gone
Watch your strength become undone

[Verse 2]
Struck by the silence that won’t let you breathe
Hand on the gate and a voice underneath
Whispers that cut you and beg you to bleed
Empty reflections, impossible need
Pulled by a promise that slips through your hands
Light up ahead, but you don’t understand

[Chorus]
(Oh no, it hurts) Every time I see the mask
(Oh no, I am) Everything I tried to pass
(Oh no, it hurts) Every time I see the mask
(Oh no, I am) Everything I tried to pass

[Bridge]
Shield on the spirit, a shatter in place
Echoes that bite as you spiral in space
Crushed by the pressure, you’re slipping again
Bleeding the truth that you’ll never defend

[Refrain]
Climb until your hope is gone
Watch your strength become undone
Climb until your hope is gone
Watch your strength become undone

[Chorus]
(Oh no, it hurts) Every time I see the mask
(Oh no, I am) Everything I tried to pass
(Oh no, it hurts) Every time I see the mask
(Oh no, I am) Everything I tried to pass

[Outro]
(Oh no, it hurts) Tried to pass
(Oh no, I am) Tried to pass
(Oh no, it hurts) Tried to pass
(Oh no, I am) Everything I tried to pass
(Oh no, it hurts) Tried to pass
(Oh no, I am) Tried to pass
(Oh no)
