Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] Fluorescent hum in the rear of the rig Polaroids pinned to a rusted steel wall Logbook lies Every mile a mask Sharp smell of bleach in the haul [Chorus] This is not romance This is rot Highway of the wolf runs hot Don’t sing his name like some dark saint Carve it from the myth Let the stain stay faint This is not romance This is rust Chains on the floor turn trust into dust [Verse 2] He wore that grin like a roadside sign “Last chance gas” for the desperate and lost Chrome on the cab Red in the cracks Every pretty story had a hidden cost [Chorus] This is not romance This is rot Highway of the wolf runs hot Don’t sing his name like some dark saint Carve it from the myth Let the stain stay faint This is not romance This is rust Chains on the floor turn trust into dust [Bridge] Count the crosses by the asphalt Unmarked Unnamed Unheard If you raise a glass to a butcher You bury every word (no glory, no crown) [Chorus] This is not romance This is rot Highway of the wolf runs hot Forget his face Remember theirs Tear down the tales Strip them bare This is not romance This is rust We break the myth Grind it to dust

metal, Modern extreme metal, 190 BPM, drop-tuned guitars locked to a relentless double-kick. Verses grind with dissonant tremolo riffs and snarled male vocals; chorus opens into a towering half-time stomp with screamed-and-sung hook in stacked harmonies. Brief disorienting ambient break before a chaotic solo, then a final climactic chorus with gang shouts and abrupt cutoff.
