Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Name on the tip of my tongue Something missing from my room Picture frames with hollow glass Faces scraped out Just blank mass Keys on the table One by one Teeth in my mouth feel short Feel wrong I know I've lost more than I own But I can't list what’s gone [Chorus] It only takes when you remember it (remember it, remember it) Another piece erased the second it clicks You can't forget what you can't admit You feel the pull and you’re feeding it Every thought you track It tears and splits It only takes when you remember it And I'm starting to remember it [Verse 2] Doorway angle slightly changed Steps to the kitchen rearranged Childhood house in a dead-end street Was it red Was it grey Did it ever breathe? Scars that I don’t recall Fresh and pale on my arms Then gone If I write it down The ink turns thin Pages curl like drying skin [Chorus] It only takes when you remember it (keep it out, keep it out) Another name dissolves the second it sticks You chase the thought It drags you into the pit You feel the pull and you’re feeding it Every sharpened fact becomes its fix It only takes when you remember it And I’m starting to remember it [Bridge] I tried to pray but the words fell through Letters fell off and the shape was you Every gap in the wall Every skipped heartbeat Is a doorway bending toward your teeth Was my mother’s voice higher Lower? Did my brother exist before her? If I say them out loud Will they fade too fast? Did I ever have a past? (did I ever have a past?) [Chorus] It only takes when you remember it (remember it, remember it) Every solid truth turns liquid Slips I bite my tongue till the memory rips You feel the pull and you’re feeding it You can’t stay blind once the edges knit It only takes when you remember it God I’m trying not to Trying not to But I’m starting to remember it

funk, Crushing blend of progressive and groove metal with technical death intricacy; 7-string guitars in polymetric chugs against jagged cymbal work, bass snarling in unison. Distorted male vocals shifting between guttural lows and frantic mid-screams, occasional layered gang shouts in the chorus. Riffs stay dense and palm-muted in verses, then open into wide dissonant chords and syncopated stabs in the hook, ending on a sudden drop to half-time for maximum dread., groove metal, progressive metal, technical death metal
