[Intro: Oli Sykes]
This song's called "Throne"
Let's go!

[Verse 1: Oli Sykes]
Remember the moment you left me alone and
Broke every promise you ever made
I was an ocean, lost in the open
Nothing could take the pain away

[Chorus: Oli Sykes & Jordan Fish]
So, you can throw me to the wolves
Tomorrow I will come back, leader of the whole pack
Beat me black and blue
Every wound will shape me, every scar will build my throne
Sing it, louder

[Verse 2: Oli Sykes]
The sticks and the stones that you used to throw have
Built me an empire, so, don’t even try
To cry me a river, 'cause I forgive you
You are the reason I still fight

[Chorus: Oli Sykes & Jordan Fish]
So, you can throw me to the wolves
Tomorrow I will come back, leader of the whole pack
Beat me black and blue
Every wound will shape me, every scar will build my throne
C'mon!
So, you can throw me to the wolves
Tomorrow I will come back, leader of the whole pack
Beat me black and blue
Every wound will shape me, every scar will build my–throne

[Bridge]
I’ll leave you choking on every word you left unspoken
Rebuild all that you’ve broken and now you know
I’ll leave you choking on every word you left unspoken
Rebuild all that you’ve broken and now you know

[Chorus: Oli Sykes, Jordan Fish & Crowd]
Every wound will shape me, every scar will build my throne
Sing it, one more time!
So, you can throw me to the wolves
Tomorrow I will come back, leader of the whole pack
Beat me black and blue
Every wound will shape me, every scar will build my throne

Bring Me The Horizon are a British alternative rock band from Sheffield, Yorkshire—often stylised as simply “BMTH” or shortened to “Bring Me.” Formed in 2003, the group currently consists of lead vocalist Oliver “Oli” Sykes, lead guitarist Lee Malia, bassist Matt Kean, drummer Matt Nicholls, and keyboardist Jordan Fish.

The name of the band was taken from Captain Jack Sparrow’s line in the first Pirates of the Caribbean which he “Bring me that horizon.” Oli stated in an interview with Spin how the name connects with his vision of the

Right at the end of the film—it might even be the very last line—Johnny Depp says, “Bring me that horizon.” That was really inspiring. I was still living with my parents in Sheffield, England, when the movie came out [in 2003]. For me and the band, playing music was always wrapped up with the idea of touring and traveling and seeing the rest of England and the rest of the world. We never thought doing that was possible, but that’s what we wanted to do. So that quote sort of stands in for our feeling of wanting to see what the planet had to offer.
