Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Silver smile plastic praise Every word cut both ways Say you’d bleed for anyone But you’re safe and dry when the sirens come [Pre-Chorus] You sell grace in a cheap disguise But your hands tell on all your lies [Chorus] How can you say you love people with a mouth like a forked tongue? What’s in your heart will speak first long before your lungs Your halo bends in the daylight all that poison on your breath How can you say you love people when your actions preach death? [Verse 2] You quote fire you quote peace Break a soul then call it “free” Open arms for the chosen few Stone in hand for the rest of us who [Pre-Chorus] You sing hope while you pull the thread But the trail you leave shows what you meant [Chorus] How can you say you love people with a mouth like a forked tongue? What’s in your heart will show loud long before you speak once Your halo bends in the daylight all that poison on your breath How can you say you love people when your actions preach death? [Bridge] [Violin and guitar trade a jagged melody under half-time drums] I don’t need your pretty phrases (hey!) I can read the way you move Every secret that you’re hiding bleeds right through the things you do So keep your hollow blessings and your counterfeit concern Love is more than empty letters it’s a fire that has to burn [Chorus] How can you say you love people with a mouth like a forked tongue? What’s in your heart writes the story line by line in what you’ve done Your halo cracks in the daylight truth cuts deeper than your threats How can you say you love people when your actions preach death? [Outro] So change the heart change the hands Let your life speak again One true word One true vein Let your love carry your name

rock, Hybrid pop-rock / symphonic metal groove with male vocals: crunchy rhythm guitars and live drums under a moody acid-jazz Rhodes and walking bass in the verses. Pre-chorus tightens with palm-muted chugs, violin answering the vocal. Chorus explodes into full symphonic layers, stacked harmonies, and soaring lead strings. Bridge drops to half-time heaviness, syncopated ride cymbals and dissonant chords, then a climactic key change and sustained strings for the final hook., pop rock, metal, acid jazz, violin, symphonic metal
