[Verse 1 — soft piano, atmospheric synths]
(female vocals, fragile but steady)
You bloom in silence, I drown in colorless dreams
Every thorn I touch bleeds the ghost of what could’ve been
Your shadow lingers in the corners of my chest
Love was a wound — and you wore it best
---
[Pre-Chorus — rising drums, distorted guitars fade in]
(male screams, desperate)
You were never mine to save!
Just a spark that burned too late!
---
[Chorus — explosive, melodic metalcore wall]
(female lead, emotional and soaring)
Heart declined — your petals fall in vain
I tried to love you through the pain
(male screams underlay)
It’s killing me — to let you go
(female vocals)
But even roses die in snow
---
[Verse 2 — heavier, syncopated guitars with electronic textures]
(female vocals, calm but broken)
Your voice still haunts the air I breathe
I trace your name through shattered dreams
(male screams)
No salvation — no return
Just ashes where the fires burned
---
[Breakdown — full metalcore aggression]
(male screams only)
Bury the bloom — it’s poison red!
The garden’s gone — the roots are dead!
(pause, silence — single note echo)
And still, I reach for thorns instead…
---
[Bridge — haunting melodic interlude, violin & synths]
(female voice, whisper to cry)
Was I the ghost you longed to feel?
Or just the mirror of what’s unreal?
(male screams fades in with emotion)
You were the sin I couldn’t decline!
Now your heart’s not beating with mine!
---
[Final Chorus — full energy, layered screams & cleans]
(female vocals soaring, male screams echoing)
Heart declined — you fade into the storm
I bleed the truth where dreams are born
Your name still burns beneath my skin
A love denied — I’ll never win
---
[Outro — piano + ambient static, fading heartbeat sound]
(female whisper)
Even roses die…
but I still remember how they felt alive.
