rise against - monarch lyrics

[verse 1]
i feel the same, no different than before
there was a time when what you thought of me once mattered
i put weight behind your words

[pre+chorus]
then something snapped
deep down inside me
tectonic shifts aligning
soft image into focus
snapped fingers break hypnosis
light through the crack
and then everything went back

[chorus]
i am not the person you remember from before
the one you patronized and steppеd on, the one you hurt (whoa+oh+oh+oh+oh)
and i have pullеd the arrows, now my skin has become stone
no longer am i prisoner to your empty f+cking words

[verse 2]
i carried every single word you said
they stacked up high, they weighed me down
but underneath it all, i didn’t notice
i was growing strong somehow
lean backward through an open window
nothing left can save me now
i hear the cry of the approaching sirens
right as i count down
[pre+chorus]
then something snapped
a lightbulb moment
like sighting land from the ocean
pure water in the desert
a thirst that can’t be measured
the first breath of a child
released into the wild

[chorus]
i am not the person you remember from before
the one you patronized and stepped on, the one you hurt (whoa+oh+oh+oh+oh)
and i have pulled the arrows, now my skin has become stone
no longer am i prisoner to your empty f+cking words

[bridge]
and your pain is an open secret
it spills with every breath
and this game that you played is over now
and gone are the days i was helpless and afraid
yeah, gone are the walls that kept me in

[outro]
yeah i, i’m not the person
that you remember from before
yeah i, i’m not the person
that you remember from before
yeah i, i’m not the person
that you remember from before
that you remember, that you remember
do you remember? do you remember?
