Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro]
(Clean, palm-muted guitar with a "hopeful" pop-punk lead. Drums kick in with a high-energy 4/4 beat.)

[Verse 1]
Fire glares through my eyes, a life built burning down
Your hollowed out core, delusional fake ass frown
Watching me lose myself for a seat at your table
Your support collapsed the moment we felt unstable
The floor falls out from under me, reaching for the sky
But, there's nothing to grab, no high, not even goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]
(Tempo slows slightly, building tension with a rising synth or guitar feedback)
My heart is a weight that I can’t carry anymore
I’m staring at the ceiling from the basement floor

[Chorus]
(High energy, melodic, anthemic vocals)
It’s an implosion of everything I used to be
A thousand miles of wreckage as far as I can see!
I’m terrified, I’m shaking, I’m losing my grip
But I’m leaning into the chaos, letting it flip!
Don’t look back, just trust the fall
Even if it feels like you’re losing it all!

[Verse 2]
(Half-time drums, gritty bass line)
The silence is louder now than the crash was before
I’m scrap-metal fragments scattered on the floor
They say the "new you" is waiting in the dust
But, it was hard to breath, your air, my lungs couldn't trust

[Pre-Chorus]
(Tempo slows slightly, building tension with a rising synth or guitar feedback)
My heart is a weight that I can’t carry anymore
I’m staring at the ceiling from the basement floor

[Chorus 2]
(High energy, melodic, anthemic vocals)
It’s an implosion of everything I used to be
A thousand miles of wreckage as far as I can see!
I’m terrified, I’m shaking, I’m losing my grip
But I’m leaning into the chaos, letting it flip!
Don’t look back, just trust the fall
Even if it feels like you’re losing it all!

[Bridge / The Build-Up]
(The "Easycore" transition. Chugging starts to syncopate. Vocals shift from singing to a desperate shout.)
I’m not breaking... I’m breaking out.
I’m not breaking... I’m breaking out!
BRACE FOR IMPACT.
[The Breakdown]
(Heavy, low-tuned "zero" chugs. Slow, punishing tempo. Visual: The "Implosion")
THE WORLD. IS. CAVING. IN. (Blegh!)
Let it crumble! Let it fade!
The wreckage is the foundation I made!
TRUST. THE. FALL.

[Outro]
(Back to the melodic pop-punk riff, but slower and more atmospheric)
You can’t see the sunrise from the bottom of the pit
But I’m still here
I’m still here

Trust the fall! 
Rebuild it all!
Trust the fall!
Rebuild it all!
(Fade out on a single, clean guitar chord)
