Pretty Little Psycho Prayer

[Music Info:

Instruments: church bells, haunting piano, distant choir pads

BPM: 88

Vocal Style: whispered confession]

Dear heaven…

I tried being good.

It never really suited me.

[Music Info: Instruments: dark piano, deep bass pulse, atmospheric synths

Vocal Style: smoky and seductive]

Got lipstick stains on my bad intentions

Halo cracked from poor decisions

Everybody loves a beautiful disaster

Till she’s moving way too fast for them

I’ve been dancing with temptation

Like it’s my favorite song

Turning red flags into decorations

And somehow carrying on

Mama told me watch my heart

Daddy said don’t trust too quick

Guess I inherited stubborn blood

And a weakness for dangerous kicks

[Music Info: Instruments: strings rise, drums begin building

Vocal Style: emotional tension]

I know I should know better

But better never felt alive

The angels keep shaking their heads

While I’m out here surviving the night

[Music Info: Instruments: explosive drums, distorted guitars, choir harmonies

Vocal Style: powerful melodic belt]

Pretty little psycho prayer

Lord knows I’m a mess down here

Got one hand reaching for salvation

And one pulling trouble near

Pretty little psycho prayer

Forgive me if I don’t play fair

I’ve got demons wearing perfume

And chaos braided through my hair

[Music Info: Instruments: bass-driven groove, dark guitar textures

Vocal Style: confident and playful]

I make mistakes like it’s a hobby

Collect regrets like souvenir shirts

Turn heartbreak into poetry

Then wonder why it still hurts

People think they understand me

After one conversation and a smile

Baby, that’s like reading chapter one

And claiming you know the whole file

There’s a hurricane behind these eyes

Thunder underneath this skin

Some days I fight my monsters

Some days I accidentally let them win

[Music Info: Instruments: piano only, choir swells slowly return

Vocal Style: vulnerable]

Maybe heaven’s tired of hearing from me

Maybe they’ve got bigger things to do

But if they’re listening tonight

Tell them I’m trying… it’s just taking longer than I thought it would

[Music Info: Instruments: full cinematic explosion, layered harmonies

Vocal Style: emotional powerhouse]

Pretty little psycho prayer

Still standing after all these years

Still turning pain into gasoline

Still outrunning old fears

Pretty little psycho prayer

If I go down, I’ll go sincere

With a reckless heart and a crooked halo

And a soul that never disappeared

[Music Info:

Instruments: fading piano and choir

Vocal Style: whisper]

Amen…

Or whatever keeps the lights on.
