Queens and Kings (Fighters fight in the dark mix)

[Verse 1] I’ve been standing in the same old hallway Watching clocks just circle ‘round again You keep telling me the world is ruthless But you never even take a step You wear your scars like they’re a crown, yeah But you never threw a single punch You sit and drink the sympathy they hand you While you’re dragging everybody down [Pre-Chorus] You call it battle when you barely bleed You paint your cage like it’s all you need [Chorus] I’m moving on, I’m cutting ties tonight No more sinking with you while you claim you tried You play the helpless, but I see through your act The real fight happens where the lights fade black You fake the struggle standing in the glow I’m done pretending that you’ll ever grow The real fighter’s bleeding in the dark alone So I’m moving on, I’m moving on [Verse 2] Every story that you tell is twisted You’re the hero and the broken soul Say you’re stuck because the world is heartless But you never learned to take control You talk of battles fought in shadows But you only stand where cameras aim You burn the ones who’d ever lift you higher Just to keep the focus on your pain [Pre-Chorus] You call it courage when you always hide You wear your weakness like it’s some kind of pride [Chorus] I’m moving on, I’m cutting ties tonight No more sinking with you while you claim you tried You play the helpless, but I see through your act The real fight happens where the lights fade black You fake the struggle standing in the glow I’m done pretending that you’ll ever grow The real fighter’s bleeding in the dark alone So I’m moving on, I’m moving on [Bridge] You say you’re where the warriors stand But you’ve never felt the ground shake under your hands You scream that you’re the only one hurt While you’re pulling every dream face-down in the dirt I’ve bled in silence, I have learned to rise You drown in pity and you call it life I won’t be the audience for your show I’m walking out, I’m letting go [Chorus] I’m moving on, I’m cutting ties tonight No more sinking with you while you claim you tried You play the helpless, but I see through your act The real fight happens where the lights fade black You fake the struggle standing in the glow I’m done pretending that you’ll ever grow The real fighter’s bleeding in the dark alone So I’m moving on, I’m moving on [Outro] I’m moving on, out of your wasted light Where the silent fighters face their fights I’m moving on, I won’t be your crutch In the dark I’m stronger, and I’ve had enough
