Lyric

Pull my cord, let heaven scream

I’m not holy, I’m obscene

If this life is cheap and loud

I’ll rev my heart and chew the crowd

I don’t need a dream that’s clean

I just want what’s in between—

Blood and bread and something warm

Let me live before I’m gone

Born in debt, raised by fear

Sold my days for beer and tears

Every god had better plans

None of them involved my hands

They told me “die for something right,”

I just wanted heat at night

So I stitched my hope with rust

Made a promise out of dust

If love is just a loaded gun

Then aim it here—don’t make me run

I’m tired of being almost real

Teach me how a heartbeat feels

Pull my cord, let heaven scream

I’m not holy, I’m obscene

If this life is cheap and loud

I’ll rev my heart and chew the crowd

I don’t need a dream that’s clean

I just want what’s in between—

Blood and bread and something warm

Let me live before I’m gone

They kiss me with a knife behind

Say “be good” and cross the line

Every smile’s a contract signed

Every touch is undefined

I learned quick what humans do:

They sell you hope, then bill you too

Still, I bite the hook and grin—

I want it all. I want to win

Don’t preach heaven, don’t say “fate,”

I’ve been starving at that gate

If hell is where the honest go

Then light it up—I’ll steal the glow

Pull my cord, let heaven scream

I’m not holy, I’m obscene

If this life is cheap and loud

I’ll rev my heart and chew the crowd

I don’t need a dream that’s clean

I just want what’s in between—

Blood and bread and something warm

Let me live before I’m gone

I don’t know love, I know need

I know hunger, speed, and greed

If that makes me less of “man,”

Cut me open—yes, I am

I’ll laugh with guts all on the floor

Cry for cake and nothing more

Judge me when the blood runs dry—

Until then, let me try

Pull my cord, I’ll bite the sky

Not to save it—just to fly

If I’m trash, then let me burn

Every scar is something learned

I won’t pray, I won’t be clean

I’ll be loud, alive, obscene—

Blood and bread and something warm

I am here. I am the storm

If tomorrow kills me fast

At least I chewed today to last
