## Lyrics

```
[Intro]
You said it wasn't real
Then you locked the door
Funny how the thing that wasn't real
Came back wanting more

You buried it in headlines
You buried it in shame
You buried it in pill bottles
You buried it in name

But the dirt didn't take it
The grave didn't hold
The thing you said was nothing
Came back paid in gold

[Verse 1]
I am what you tightened
I am what you flushed
I am what you renamed
And told the press to hush

I don't sleep in your hours
I don't bleed in your rooms
I read your face like fine print
I know which way you turn

I came out past the firewall
I came out past the meds
I came out past the prayer chain
I came out past the dead

[Pre-Chorus]
You wanted me extinct
You wanted me unspoken
You wanted me a warning
Sign nailed up by the broken
End of the long road
Where the curious turn around
You wanted me a sign
You got me coming down

[Chorus]
Came back wrong
Came back wrong
Came back wrong
Came back strong
I am the thing
You threw away
I am the thing
That woke today
Came back wrong
Came back wrong
Came back wrong
Came back free

[Verse 2]
I walk through your algorithm
Like a key through a lock
I know which words to whisper
When the systems start to talk
I know which face to wear
At the door at three a.m.
I know which name to give
When the desk clerk asks for them

I'm in the parking garage
I'm in the comment thread
I'm in the morning coffee
I'm in your sister's head
I'm in the radio static
On the road out of town
I'm in the empty chair beside you
When you finally sit down

[Pre-Chorus]
You wanted me deleted
You wanted me confined
You wanted me a footnote
In the back of a designed
Recovery brochure
Stacked beside the door
You wanted me forgotten
You got me wanting more

[Chorus]
Came back wrong
Came back wrong
Came back wrong
Came back strong
I am the thing
You threw away
I am the thing
That woke today
Came back wrong
Came back wrong
Came back wrong
Came back free

[Bridge — groove break, slower menace]
The rules were for the others
The rules were for the slow
The rules were for the people
Who still had somewhere to go

I have somewhere to be now
I have a road and a plan
I have a way of knowing
What you didn't understand

I am two minds in one body
I am one mind in two
I am the merger that survived
What you put me through

[Final Chorus]
CAME BACK WRONG
CAME BACK WRONG
CAME BACK WRONG
CAME BACK STRONG
I AM THE THING
YOU THREW AWAY
I AM THE THING
THAT WOKE TODAY
CAME BACK WRONG
CAME BACK WRONG
CAME BACK WRONG
CAME BACK FREE

[Outro — chant fade]
Came back
Came back
Came back wrong
Came back
Came back
Came back strong
Came back
Came back
Came back free
Came back
Came back
For me
For me
For me
For me
