[Intro – soft piano + distant screams]
Every promise you made was a blade in disguise...
[Verse 1 – clean vocals with grit]
You swore forever, but forever was fake
Every vow you gave was just mine to break
I held your words like they were gold
But they cut me down, left me cold
Your halo cracked, your truth was gone
Now I’m the fire you’ll choke upon
Every oath you stained with lies
Still bleeds inside these haunted eyes
[Pre-Chorus – screamed]
You left me drowning, left me blind
Now I won’t bow to your design
[Chorus – clean soaring vocals + backing screams]
Bloodstained oaths, carved in my skin
I’ll never forget what you did within
You promised me love, you gave me pain
I’ll wear these scars like a curse in my veins
Bloodstained oaths, they cut so deep
The kind of lies I’ll never keep
[Verse 2 – screamed, heavier]
I gave you trust, you gave me chains
Every smile you wore was laced with pain
You crowned yourself with my despair
But I won’t kneel, I won’t stay there
Your words are ghosts that haunt my nights
But I’ll turn them all into a fight
You can’t erase the fire I breathe
This war you sparked is the death of me
[Breakdown – guttural screams, brutal chugs]
(BLOODSTAINED!)
Your promises rot in the dirt
(OATHS!)
Every word just makes it hurt
[Final Chorus – clean/screamed fusion, epic]
Bloodstained oaths, carved in my skin
I’ll never forget what you did within
You promised me love, you gave me pain
I’ll wear these scars like a curse in my veins
Bloodstained oaths, they cut so deep
The kind of lies I’ll never keep
[Outro – whispered + fading echoes]
Every promise bleeds...
And I bleed with it.
