I saw the fire before the world could scream, Metal twisting like a nightmare in a dream. Everyone laughed when I tried to warn, But the sky split open and the world was torn. Now every shadow feels like déjà vu, Every breath I take feels overdue. I escaped the flames, but not the design— Death keeps tracing circles down my spine. Pre‑Chorus There’s a grin carved in the dark behind me, A painted smile that says I shouldn’t be alive. Chorus I’m running from a fate that already knows my name, A ghost that follows patterns in the flame. I cheated death once, but death won’t let me be— Its painted smile still watches me. Every step I take rewrites the tragedy, But the ending keeps collapsing back on me. I’m living proof you can outrun destiny— But never the thing That wants you back. Verse 2 Faces blur like static in my mind, Every friend I lose is another warning sign. The world bends wrong when the pattern starts, A chain reaction tearing through their hearts. I see reflections that don’t match my face, Hear footsteps pacing in an empty place. Death doesn’t knock — it waits, it schemes, It crawls out slow from the cracks between. Bridge I’m not cursed… I’m chosen. Marked by the moment the cabin door blew open. And every scream I swallowed down that day Still echoes, still hunts, still wants me to pay. Breakdown Run if you want — the pattern never breaks. Hide if you want — it still knows what it takes. You can’t escape a fate that’s already been seen, You can only watch it play the same routine. Final Chorus I’m running from a fate that already knows my name, A ghost that follows patterns in the flame. I cheated death once, but death won’t let me be— Its painted smile still watches me. Every step I take rewrites the tragedy, But the ending keeps collapsing back on me. I’m living proof you can outrun destiny— But never the thing That wants you back.
