[Intro – static fx, distant guitar squeal, whispered voice]
You said love never dies…
But I watched it rot in real time.
⸻
[Verse 1 – low, gritty vocal over slow riff + pulsing synth]
We were thunder in the silence,
A blood-red moon in a grayscale sky.
You kissed me like a promise,
But your promise was a beautiful lie.
Now I sleep in a bed made of wires,
Chained to the ghost of what we were.
I still wear your name in the ashes,
But it burns like a scar that won’t blur.
⸻
[Chorus – soaring melody + heavy distorted guitar]
This love was steel, but time turned it to rust,
We held on too long, now there’s no one to trust.
You were heaven wrapped in a funeral dress,
Now I breathe you in, but you still feel less.
Love like rust — it breaks, it stains,
Still echoes in the cracks of my veins.
⸻
[Verse 2 – more aggressive delivery, industrial drums]
Your voice still lives in the static,
A loop I can’t erase.
You haunt like a synthetic angel,
With poison in your grace.
I tried to bleach out the memories,
Tried to drown you in black rain.
But you live where my darkness sleeps,
A virus in my pain.
⸻
[Bridge – screamed / layered vocals, glitchy distortion]
I screamed your name in broken code,
Wrote it in cuts down every road.
You were love, now you’re rot, now you’re rust,
And I’m lost in the filth of what used to be us.
⸻
[Chorus – repeat, more intense, layered vocals + harmonies]
This love was steel, but time turned it to rust,
We held on too long, now there’s no one to trust.
You were heaven wrapped in a funeral dress,
Now I breathe you in, but you still feel less.
Love like rust — it breaks, it stains,
Still echoes in the cracks of my veins.
⸻
[Outro – soft piano keys over static noise]
You said forever like a curse,
And I wore it like a crown.
But even kings fall into the dirt…
And I still can’t put you down.
