\[intro – siren ambience, low toms]
Fever in a wedding veil, rash like thrown rice.
I said “’til death do us part,” my skin took it literal.
\[verse 1]
Prodrome psalm—aching bones, phosphor breath,
Mouth of paper cuts, eyes like salted glass.
Honeymoon’s over: keratin confetti, blister black mass,
I wear a burning chapel; every step unfastens vows.
\[pre-chorus]
Touch me and the map comes off—
Who signs the body when the owner’s lost?
\[chorus]
**SKIN DIVORCE—SERVE THE WRIT!**
**TEN COUNT DOWN—THIRTY PERCENT EXIT!**
**DERMIS DETACHED—PEEL THE SUN!**
**I DIDN’T RUN—I CAME UNDONE!**
\[verse 2]
Tongue is a hemorrhaged hymn, lips split like envelopes,
Ocular winter—visions drown in sterile snow.
I’m a burn unit confessional, gauze in a rosary row,
Every breath a contract I can’t keep anymore.
\[breakdown i – slam]
**NIKOLSKY KISS—SLIDE RIGHT OFF!**
**GRIEF LIKE A GLOVE THAT NEVER COMES OFF!**
**AUTOIMMUNE ALTAR—SELF ON THE CROSS!**
**I AM THE BRIDE—I AM THE LOSS!**
\[manic bridge – frantic tempo]
Hands shake halos, I laugh like a ruptured latch,
“Look—I’m brand new,” I joke, while layers detach.
Bargain with the ceiling, manic grin, split seam—
If I shed enough times, maybe I’ll wake from this dream.
\[depressive drop – half-time, clean guitar under growl]
I don’t know the face beneath the fever’s edit.
I keep my name in a pocket; the pocket’s empty.
You ask if I’m alright—
I am a room that can’t remember its walls.
\[chorus – harder]
**SKIN DIVORCE—SERVE THE WRIT!**
**TEN COUNT DOWN—THIRTY PERCENT EXIT!**
**DERMIS DETACHED—PEEL THE SUN!**
**I DIDN’T RUN—I CAME UNDONE!**
\[breakdown ii – final slam]
**FLAY THE HORIZON / SALINE RAIN**
**NAMELESS PATIENT / NUMBERED PAIN**
**SIGN THE PAPERS / SEVER THE SKIN**
**IF THIS IS “HEALING,” WHEN DO I BEGIN?**
\[outro – fading pulse, whispered]
Keep the lights low.
Keep the questions soft.
I’ll be here—
until here comes off.
