Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I laid your name in salt
On the floor by the door
The house held its breath
Like it knew you were gone
Your glass still has a ring
On the side of the sink
I still wash my hands
But I don't feel clean
[Pre-Chorus]
If I call your shadow
Will you crawl back home?
If I bleed in the doorway
Will I get you close?
[Chorus]
Black Roses on the Altar
Black Roses on the Altar
I gave you my whole heart
You gave me the hurt
Black Roses on the Altar
Black Roses on the Altar
I sing to the wreckage
And it sings back first
[Verse 2]
The mirror keeps your face
In the crack on the edge
I bite down the cry
Till my jaw runs red
Your coat's in the chair
Like a ghost with a pulse
I wear all your ash
Like a bruise in my lungs
[Pre-Chorus]
If I call your shadow
Will you crawl back home?
If I break in the silence
Will you hear me choke?
[Chorus]
Black Roses on the Altar
Black Roses on the Altar
I gave you my whole heart
You gave me the hurt
Black Roses on the Altar
Black Roses on the Altar
I sing to the wreckage
And it sings back first
[Bridge]
I was built from the leaving
From the slam of the gate
From the prayers in the dark
That you never stayed
So I kneel in the fire
Let it take what it can
If you won't come back
I'll become my own damned hand
[Final Chorus]
Black Roses on the Altar
Black Roses on the Altar
I gave you my whole heart
You gave me the hurt
Black Roses on the Altar
Black Roses on the Altar
I burn with the roses
Till the whole room burns too

Emo metal with mid-tempo double-kick drive, crushing palm-muted verses, soaring pre-chorus lift, and a half-time chorus that opens into wide guitars and chugging cymbal crashes; female vocals with haunted clean lines, throat-ripped scream layers, octave doubles, and whispered gang echoes on the hook. Reverse cymbal swells, low tom rolls into the chorus, and a broken piano line glints between phrases. Dark, huge, and close-mic in the verses, cinematic and serrated on the chorus., metal, emo, sad, deep
