Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Wake up to the ceiling cracking
Hairline fractures in my chest
Every breath a broken bottle
Every thought a choking jest
[Pre-Chorus]
I drag this carcass through the daylight
Mask stapled to my skin
They call it "fine
" they call it "trying"
I call it learning how to sink
[Chorus]
I taste the ashes in my mouth
Every word I spit burns out
I built a kingdom out of doubt
Let it crush me
Let it crush me
If this is living
Tear me down
Bleed the color from this town
I wear depression like a crown
Let it crush me
Let it crush me
[Verse 2]
Clock hand carving through my wristwatch
Same four walls
A vacant stare
Friends talk storms and silver linings
I just feel the heavy air
[Pre-Chorus]
I nail a smile above the fault line
Hope it holds until I leave
But in the silence of the hallway
All I hear is grinding teeth
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
How deep can I dig
Before the earth starts spitting me back
How long can I scream
Before my throat forgets to react
[growled]
I'm not okay
I'm not okay
But it feels like treason to say it out loud
[crescendo]
So I carve it in the drywall
Till the letters start to drown
[Chorus]

Style
Melodic death metal with tightly locked double-kick and down-tuned, tremolo-picked guitars. Verses stay tense with dissonant harmonies and low growls; chorus opens into a bleak, anthemic hook with layered screams and strained clean male vocals. Brief half-time bridge with syncopated riffs, ride bell accents, then a final, faster chorus that pushes the vocal to the edge.
