Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Alto: You laughed But your hands were shaking Coffee cooled between us Untouched You said "I ruin every good thing" Like you were warning me off Soprano: I knew every crack in your armor Every story you never could say Still I leaned my head on your shoulder Said "I'm not walking away" [Chorus] Both: I loved you past the worst days Through every sharp word you threw You cut the cord in one swing Swan-neck clean You said we're through Guillotine goodbye So sudden Still I stand here in the line I loved you like a lifetime You left me like a headline [Verse 2] Alto: You folded my hoodie so neatly Left it out by the door Like a crime Your note just said "Don't hate me" Signed with your first name Not mine Soprano: You went and erased all our pictures Left blank spaces where we used to be Like if you cut out the color You could live safer in grey [Chorus] Both: I loved you past the worst days Through every sharp word you threw You cut the cord in one swing Swan-neck clean You said we're through Guillotine goodbye So sudden Still I stand here in the line I loved you like a lifetime You left me like a headline [Bridge] Alto (soft): Was I too close Too warm Too known Would you have stayed If I'd stayed stone Soprano (overlapping, fragile): If you called me now Just said my name I'd bring all the light Back to your frame Both (in harmony, rising): You can hate me You can vanish Change your number Change your street But you can't unteach my heart How to love you Incomplete [Chorus] Both: I loved you past the worst days Through every sharp word you threw You cut the cord in one swing Swan-neck clean You said we're through Guillotine goodbye It's falling Still I'd stand there every time I loved you like a lifetime You left me like a headline [Outro] Soprano (barely above a whisper): If you ever miss my shoulder Alto: You know where my door has been Both (soft, held): You can sever every ending But you'd still be my begin (oh)

Sparse, breathy indie-pop duet over warm electric piano and soft brushed kit; intimate close-mic female alto and soprano trading lines and brief harmonies. Verses stay hushed and confessional, bass barely gliding underneath; chorus blooms with stacked, airy vocals and subtle pads for lift. Occasional reverse reverb swells and soft guitar harmonics underline the “guillotine” moments, then decay back into whisper-quiet space., breathy
