[Intro – Low Strings + Footsteps Echoing]
Candlelight flickers.
Soft applause.
A toast is raised.
[Voice (smooth):]
To unity.
Glasses clink.
⸻
[Verse 1 – Calm / Sinister]
Smiles polished like silverware
Promises whispered in perfumed air
Allies seated in velvet chairs
While daggers hide beneath their prayers
Power shifts with a quiet nod
Signed in ink, not spilled in blood
But blood will follow — understood
When crowns are claimed in shadowed mud
You think the throne is taken by might?
No. It’s stolen in silence at night.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – Whisper Chorus Layer]
Trust erodes…
Walls have ears…
Truth corrodes…
Feed the fears…
⸻
[Chorus 1 – Dark Anthem, No Hope]
[Clean (low, haunting):]
Shake the hands that plan your fall
Hear the echo in the hall
[Low scream layer:]
BETRAYAL
[Whisper:]
Betrayal…
[Clean:]
All your allies wear a grin
While they carve beneath your skin
[Half-growl:]
IN THE DARK
[Whisper:]
Dark…
⸻
[Verse 2 – More Direct / Political Venom]
Votes are bought with quiet threats
Secrets traded, unpaid debts
History bends when power bets
On who survives and who forgets
You stood tall — naive and proud
Trusted words said clear and loud
Now the chamber turns to crowd
And loyalty’s not allowed.
They don’t need steel.
They don’t need flame.
Just signatures
And shame.
⸻
[Chorus 2 – Heavier Bass Pulse]
[Clean:]
Raise the banner, wave it high
Watch conviction slowly die
[Layered whisper-scream:]
BETRAYAL
[Whisper:]
Fall…
[Clean:]
Every oath was paper thin
Every ally let you in
[Growl:]
TO CUT YOU APART
[Whisper:]
Apart…
⸻
[Bridge – Trap Metal Drop / Coup Moment]
(808 distortion. Heartbeat rhythm.)
[Voice 1:]
You have our support.
[Voice 2 (quietly):]
Remove him.
(Gavel slams.)
Gasps.
[Voice 3:]
Effective immediately.
Beat drops heavier.
⸻
[Final Chorus – Coldest / Slowest]
[Strings drag slowly]
[Clean (emotionless):]
Empty throne and shattered trust
Golden crown begins to rust
[Deep layered growl:]
BETRAYAL
[Whisper:]
Rust…
[Clean:]
In the dark where deals are made
Loyal hearts are slowly flayed
[Final low scream:]
NO ONE SAFE
[Whisper:]
No one…
⸻
[Outro – Single Candle Extinguishes]
Blow of air.
Darkness.
No applause.
