作曲：头条梦三

作词：头条梦三

You told me stay low

I lit the match

Family name on my tongue

Like a chain on my throat

Your mother drew a border

Your father built the moat

We met in the market rain

Under baskets of pears

You touched my wrist once

Like you had no fear

Now they circle the house

With their old broken rules

Say a girl should kneel down

Say a heart should be cruel

I wore silence like silk

Till it cut me in two

I heard them say die pretty

I said I won't for you

Breath in, breath out

I can feel the gate shake

If the world wants my grave

Then the world made a mistake

I choose the road

I choose the fire

I choose my name

I climb higher

No tomb for me

No saint, no bride

I run alive

I run alive (alive)

Burned your letters in the yard

Watched the ash turn gold

Peacock feather in my hair

Like a blade in the cold

You said meet me at the river

Past the fig tree bend

But the house dogs kept howling

So I ran before dawn

Left a red scarf behind

On the fence by the well

Let them choke on the rumor

Let them keep the shell

I wore silence like silk

Till it cut me in two

I heard them say die pretty

I said I won't for you

Breath in, breath out

I can feel the gate shake

If the world wants my grave

Then the world made a mistake

I choose the road

I choose the fire

I choose my name

I climb higher

No tomb for me

No saint, no bride

I run alive

I run alive (alive)

Listen

They can keep their mourning cloth

Keep their sealed-up prayer

I am bones with a heartbeat

I am storm in the air

Peacock eyes in the dark

Watching me survive

Every door they locked on me

Just taught me how to fly

I choose the road

I choose the fire

I choose my name

I climb higher

No tomb for me

No saint, no bride

I run alive

I run alive (alive)

You told me stay low

I lit the match
