All In The Past

[Verse 1]
Backseat confession
Your nails in my wrist
Cheap room
Torn curtains
First touch tastes like risk
You bite your question
“Is this wrong
Is this right?”
I say “we’re already falling”
As I kill the light
[Chorus]
I want you now
Maybe the first
Maybe the last
Skin on skin
’Til we burn through the hourglass
When the sweat dries
We’re just ghosts of what we had
You can keep my body
It’s all in the past
[Verse 2]
Low moans
High silence
Your breath on my neck
Heartbeat drum rolling
Like we’re cashing a check
You say “don’t promise”
I just pull you close
We’re saints
We’re sinners
We’re both
I suppose
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
When the heat fades out
Will you still say my name?
Or wipe off my fingerprints
Like I’m a stain?
[high melodic vocal]
If this is goodbye
Let it tear
Let it crash
Let the sheets be the altar
Where we turn into ash
[Chorus]

metal, 2000s metalcore grit: dropped-tuned chugs, pinch harmonics, halftime breakdowns. Verses ride a sinister palm-muted groove with alternating low growls and soaring male cleans; chorus explodes with octave lead guitars and big gang shouts. Bridge hits a brutal stop-start riff then opens into a high melodic climax before one last crushing hook., low, male vocals
