Cracks In My Candy Heart

[Verse 1]
Lipstick on your coffee cup
You left in such a hurry
Said “it’s better if we stop”
Now your ghost is in my hoodie (yeah)
[Pre-Chorus]
You turned our secrets into stories
Told them like a joke to friends
I read the punchline in your messages
That’s the night the fairytale ends
[Chorus]
You put cracks in my candy heart
Turned the red to a deeper dark
Every word was a tiny knife
Death of a promised life
You walked out and you closed that door
Left me bleeding on the kitchen floor
Now I’m dancing with the ache you made
Lonely in the mess we played
[Verse 2]
All our photos in a pile
Pixel faces staring
I hit delete
But for a while
I swear I feel you tearing
[Pre-Chorus]
You said you’d hold me through the nightmares
You said you’d never disappear
Now every “always” that you whispered
Is the echo that I fear
[Chorus]
You put cracks in my candy heart
Turned the red to a deeper dark
Every word was a tiny knife
Death of a promised life
You walked out and you closed that door
Left me bleeding on the kitchen floor
Now I’m dancing with the ache you made
Lonely in the mess we played
[Bridge]
Was it ever love
Or just a dare
You pulled the wings
Off what we shared
I’m still here
But I’m not the same
You killed the “us”
And signed my name (oh)
[Chorus]
You put cracks in my candy heart
Turned the red to a deeper dark
Every word was a tiny knife
Death of a promised life
You walked out and you closed that door
Left me breathing but wanting more
Now I’m laughing through the hurt you gave
Lonely
But I crawled away

pop, Dark alt-pop ballad with glossy synth pads, filtered drums, and a pulsing sub under the verses. Chorus opens wide with stacked female vocals, bright bells, and a sidechained pad swell. Subtle distorted guitar doubles the hook; bridge drops to near a cappella then slams back with a final, saturated chorus.
