Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] You held the match To keep them warm Watched the flames Remake your form Smelled your skin On their salvation Heard them cheer Over your damnation [Chorus] Every mercy leaves a mark Every choice can carve you hollow I wear this crown of consequence Bleeding so the guilty follow If you’re saved by what I lost Don’t you dare call this just fate I am both the wound and knife I choose love And carry hate [Verse 2] You drank the blame To clear their names Swallowed glass To dull their shame Signed in red On their survival Became the cost Of their revival [Chorus] Every mercy leaves a mark Every choice can carve you hollow I wear this crown of consequence Bleeding so the guilty follow If you’re saved by what I lost Don’t you dare call this just fate I am both the wound and knife I choose love And carry hate [Bridge] How many futures Burn on my hands How many ruins Built on my plans I hear them laughing Through my scars They sleep in peace I count the stars (alone) [Chorus] Every mercy leaves a mark Every choice can carve you hollow I wear this crown of consequence Bleeding so the guilty follow If you’re saved by what I lost Stand and face the toll I paid I am both the wound and knife I choose love And fade away

metal, Mid-tempo modern metal, palm-muted riff driving verses under harsh male vocals; chorus blooms into anthemic, melodic hooks with layered screams beneath. Double-kick fills punch transitions, tom-heavy bridge feels ritualistic with dissonant guitar harmonies and a soaring final chorus that rides a sustained lead line.
