Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Daytime I button my shame Collar straight Coffee in hand Call me “Doctor ” shake all their palms They clap for the calm in my plans Nighttime I unhook my guard Tie on the habits that scar Slide through the cracks in my mind Say I’ll be back by dark [Chorus] I got two lives One skin Holy outside Hell within I keep rising Then I slip Halo in the morning Poison on my lips I got two lives One skin Clean white coat Stained remission Still I’m breathing So I guess Survival is my only superstition [Verse 2] Pictures on bookshelves Framed Look like I handled it all But some of my chapters burn Hidden in bathroom stalls I toast to the bruises I hid Laugh at the ghost in the glass Kiss every scar like a dare Praying this night will pass [Chorus] I got two lives One skin Holy outside Hell within I keep rising Then I slip Halo in the morning Poison on my lips I got two lives One skin Clean white coat Stained remission Still I’m breathing So I guess Survival is my only superstition [Bridge] Tell me Which one is real? The one who saves or needs saving? Can I stitch these selves together Or am I always changing Breaking? (oh) [Chorus] I got two lives One skin Holy outside Hell within I keep rising Then I slip Halo in the morning Poison on my lips I got two lives One skin But I’m learning how to listen To the part of me that lived Not the part that loved the prison [Outro] Daytime I button my shame Night falls I face it again Maybe two lives One skin Is just the shape of how I win

Dark alt-pop ballad with intimate male vocals over pulsing synth bass and sparse drums. Verses stay hushed and confessional with dry vocal, subtle piano echoes. Chorus blooms with wider reverb, stacked harmonies, and a heavier low end that swells then drops out for impact. Bridge strips back to voice and a single pad before the final chorus hits with extra ad-libs and a slightly brighter top-line.
