Hatchet

You set my world on fire, it's time to run away
 Through the soil you torched to the horizon
 My hopes and dreams they died, but now I'm justified
 I won't drag your weight any longer
 Cut me loose
 I'm trying to let go of everything
 You've tied my noose
 But now your rope's unraveling
 It's hard to breathe with your hands around my neck
 Around my neck, you're killing me
 It's hard to know when you're behind me
 It's hard to bury this hatchet when it's in my back
 You left my spirit torn, tired, and all alone
 My heart is frozen, colder than frostbite
 I've gathered every stone that you have ever thrown
 Used them to build my road while you sink under
 Cut me loose
 I'm trying to let go of everything
 You've tied my noose
 But now your rope's unraveling
 It's hard to breathe with your hands around my neck
 Around my neck, you're killing me
 It's hard to know when you're behind me
 It's hard to bury this hatchet when it's in my back
 You raised your walls so you could hide your past
 Made them out of glass and they're shattering
 It's hard to bury this hatchet when it's in my back
 It's in my back, hatchet in my back
 Look me in the eyes
 The only one prepared to die
 The damage is already done
 You best get your hatchet
 This battle has just begun
 It's hard to breathe with your hands around my neck
 Around my neck, you're killing me
 It's hard to know when you're behind me
 It's hard to bury this hatchet when it's in my back
 It's hard to breathe
 With your hands around me, hand around me
 It's hard to know
 You're always behind me
