Velvet Hex

(Verse 1)

Silk on my skin, but it cuts like a blade

Whispers of power in promises made

You feel me before you know that I’m there

A touch like a prayer… or a beautifully laid snare

(Pre-Chorus)

Don’t say my name unless you mean it

Don’t meet my eyes unless you’ve seen it

The cost of wanting something more

Than what you’re worth… than what you’re for

(Chorus)

I don’t burn—I bloom in the dark

A quiet little curse in the shape of a spark

You won’t see the end ‘til it’s already done

I don’t chase fate… I become

Velvet voice, but my hands don’t shake

Every vow you break is a breath I take

You can try to run, you can try to pretend—

But I always get what I don’t defend

(Verse 2)

Gold on your throat, but it tightens slow

Love is a language I’ll never owe

You call it mercy—I call it art

The way I unravel a beating heart

(Pre-Chorus)

You felt the shift before the silence

Before the beauty turned to violence

Before the air grew sharp and thin

And something else stepped in

(Chorus)

I don’t burn—I bloom in the dark

A quiet little curse in the shape of a spark

You won’t see the end ‘til it’s already done

I don’t chase fate… I become

Velvet voice, but my hands don’t shake

Every vow you break is a breath I take

You can try to run, you can try to pretend—

But I always get what I don’t defend

(Bridge — softer, almost tender)

There was a time I might have stayed

Soft in the light… unafraid

But love is a blade they taught me to hold

And I learned too young how to let it go cold

(Final Chorus — rising, powerful)

So I don’t burn—I bloom in the dark

A crown made of silence, a soul made of spark

You wanted a villain? Then watch me descend—

Not evil… just something that doesn’t bend

Velvet curse in a porcelain skin

Let them all wonder where I’ve been

I don’t need fear—I don’t need fame—

Just a world that remembers my name
