[Intro]
[Distorted synth pads, fading into a glitchy drum beat]
[Whispered]
I fed you my heart... and you choked on the bone.
[Verse 1]
We built this kingdom on a pinky swear
Now there’s a scent of burning bridges in the air
I held the ladder while you climbed so high
Just to watch you paint a target on my spine
Every secret was a silver bullet in your hand
I didn’t know you were building castles in the sand.
[Pre-Chorus]
[Building tension, palm-muted guitars]
Is this the view you wanted?
Looking down from your throne of lies?
The silence is haunted
By the look in my eyes.
[Chorus]
[Explosive energy, heavy drums]
Congratulations, you’re the king of the fakes!
How does it feel when the foundation breaks?
You sold my soul for a moment of light
Now you’re just a ghost screaming into the night!
Yeah, you cut me deep, but I’m the one who survived
While everything you touched has slowly died!
[Verse 2]
[Bass-driven, industrial atmosphere]
You wear my trust like a hand-me-down coat
Then you tighten the collar and go for the throat
It’s funny how the people that you’d take a bullet for
Are the ones behind the trigger when you’re hit on the floor.
[Bridge]
[Complete silence, then a heavy, slow breakdown]
SNAKE!
[Low-tuned guitar chugs]
Dig the grave.
Dig it deep.
The secrets you buried...
THEY DON'T SLEEP!
[Increasing speed]
Go on, run!
Go on, hide!
You’re rotting away from the inside!
[Chorus]
Congratulations, you’re the king of the fakes!
How does it feel when the foundation breaks?
You sold my soul for a moment of light
Now you’re just a ghost screaming into the night!
[Outro]
[Melodic, atmospheric synths returning]
I hope it was worth it.
[Heavy distorted scream]
I HOPE IT WAS WORTH IT!
[Sudden silence]
[Whispered]
Don't look back.
