[Start with music: 6-second distorted guitar intro, gritty alt-metal riff, light feedback, no vocals]
[Background whisper]
Out… of… my head…
[SCREAM] GET OUT OF MY HEAD!
[Verse 1 - loud, intense]
You were never what I needed
Just a habit I repeated
Every warning, every sign
Still I let you waste my time
You never held me, never stayed
Just a mess I let you make
Should’ve cut you from the start
Now you’re buried in my heart
[Pre-Chorus - building tension, scream underlay]
I don’t want you, that’s the truth
So why can’t I get rid of you?
[Chorus - loud, aggressive]
Out of my head—but not my heart
I tear you out, you fall apart
You were never even mine
Just a thief of all my time
Out of my head—I’m done with you
But my chest won’t tell the truth
I let go, I play the part
Out of my head—but not my heart
[Verse 2 - punchy, biting]
You were nothing I could keep
Still you’re crawling in my sleep
Every word you never meant
Still stuck under my skin
I moved on, I changed my pace
Different love, a different place
But no matter where I start
You’re the echo in the dark
[Pre-Chorus - louder, screaming underlay]
I shut the door, I locked it tight
But you keep slipping through my mind
[Chorus - full power, scream emphasis]
Out of my head—but not my heart
I tear you out, you fall apart
You were never even mine
Just a thief of all my time
Out of my head—I’m done with you
But my chest won’t tell the truth
I let go, I play the part
Out of my head—but not my heart
[Bridge - whisper → scream]
(soft)
You don’t get to live in me
Not after everything
(building)
You were nothing… nothing real
[SCREAM!] SO WHY DO I STILL FEEL!?
[Final Chorus - maximum intensity]
Out of my head—but not my heart
You don’t deserve to leave a mark
You were never even mine
Just a waste of breath and time
Out of my head—get out, get gone
Should’ve known it all along
I’m moving on, I made my start
Out of my head—but not my heart
[Outro - loud, lingering]
Out of my head…
…just not my heart
