Don’t come looking

“Don’t Come Looking”

(Intro – reversed whispers, distant thud)
don’t… come back…
too late… too late…

(metal scrape, bass creeps in)

(Verse 1 – low, controlled, venom building)

I begged so long I forgot my pride,
Left my dignity out there to die,
You watched me break in slow decay,
Then turned your head and walked away.

Cold shoulder like a loaded gun,
Silence louder than what you’ve done,
I said “I’m sorry” a thousand ways,
You let me rot in those empty days.

(Pre-Chorus – tightening, rising)
You ever feel your mind collapse?
Like time just loops and never snaps?
I stayed too long inside that pain,
Now nothing in me feels the same.

(Chorus – punchy, aggressive, layered)
DON’T COME LOOKING WHEN I’M GONE,
YOU TAUGHT ME HOW TO MOVE ALONE,
EVERY NIGHT I LEARNED TO BLEED,
WITHOUT YOU WATCHING OVER ME.

YOU LEFT ME LOST INSIDE MY HEAD,
MADE A HOME OUTTA WHAT YOU SAID,
NOW I’M SOMETHING YOU CAN’T CONTROL
A BODY HERE WITH A MISSING SOUL.

(Verse 2 – faster, unstable, spiraling)
Days blur into one long scream,
Can’t tell awake from broken dreams,
Thirty-eight nights with no one there,
Just shadows breathing in my air.

I stopped believing help would come,
Started talking to the numb,
Walls don’t leave, they don’t betray,
They just watch me fade away.

(Whisper break – creeping, layered)
stay quiet…
don’t feel…
don’t need…
don’t heal…

(Pre-Chorus – distorted, breathless)
Abandonment’s a daily scar,
You don’t forget who people are,
They love you best when you’re on your knees,
Then leave you there to beg and bleed.

(Chorus – heavier, chaotic energy)
DON’T COME LOOKING WHEN I’M GONE,
I BUILT MYSELF FROM WHAT WENT WRONG,
EVERY TIME YOU LET ME FALL,
I LOST THE NEED FOR YOU AT ALL.

YOU USED MY HEART LIKE IT WAS RENT,
LEFT ME WITH THE DAMAGE SPENT,
NOW I’M COLDER THAN YOUR GOODBYE—
AND I DON’T EVEN ASK YOU WHY.

(Bridge – eerie, slow, almost hypnotic)
I used to wait…
by the door…

(creak… footsteps that never arrive)

Now I don’t wait anymore.

You killed that part real clean.

(Breakdown – bass drop, whispers into scream)
you said you’d stay…
you said you’d stay…
YOU SAID YOU’D STAY—

(distorted scream tears through)

(Final Chorus – full force, unhinged power)
DON’T COME LOOKING—I WON’T BE THERE,
JUST EMPTY EYES AND HOLLOW AIR,
YOU TAUGHT ME LOVE DON’T EVER LAST,
SO I BURIED MINE IN THE PAST.

I WANTED YOU TO FIGHT FOR ME,
BUT YOU JUST LET ME DISAPPEAR,
NOW I’M THE THING YOU LEFT BEHIND—
AND I DON’T NEED YOU ANYWHERE NEAR.

(Outro – quiet, chilling)
no more begging…
no more waiting…
just… gone.
