"Gallows" lyrics - ATREYU

This life starts with a heartbeat
Is it beat, beat, beat, beat, beating me down?
Like the loser I am
I can't help but to see
That success scares the living shit outta me
Like the loser I am

Every time I walk away
Every word I ever say

Restless, chasing shadows
Choices, facing gallow's poll
Are you hanging by a thread
Or swinging from a rope?
Don't think we don't see your scars
Are you afraid of who you are?
Are you afraid of who you are?

Denial, my soul will burn
Is it burn, burn, burn, burning me out?
You're feeding the flames
Spread out the ash, pretend to see
That you can't still find some value in me
I just feed the flames

Every time I walk away
Every word I ever say

Restless, chasing shadows
Choices, facing gallow's poll
Are you hanging by a thread
Or swinging from the rope?
Don't think we don't see your scars
Are you afraid of who you are?

Oh my God, what am I afraid of?
Success and of every word it takes
Oh my god, are you afraid of me
And everything that breathes?

Restless, chasing shadows
Choices, facing gallow's poll
Are you hanging by a thread
Or swinging from the rope?
Don't think we don't see your scars
Are you afraid of who you are?
