Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You cracked me
In that cheap motel in Texas
Bible on the nightstand
But the page stayed closed
Your name like ash
On my trembling tongue
You said “drive safe”
While you watched me implode
[Chorus]
Now I’m southbound self-destruct
Bleeding on this busted truck
Every mile from you to Georgia
I corrupt what I swore I’d be
I was clean when I left home
Now I’m drowning in what I’ve done
Texas took the spine from me
Georgia’s getting what’s left of me
[Verse 2]
Exit signs
Like a countdown on the highway
Gas station glare
On my guilty hands
Cross around my neck
Feels like it’s burning through my skin
Whiskey in the cup holder
Where my conscience used to stand
[Chorus]
’Cause I’m southbound self-destruct
Bleeding on this busted truck
Every mile from you to Georgia
I corrupt what I swore I’d be
I was clean when I left home
Now I’m drowning in what I’ve done
Texas took the spine from me
Georgia’s getting what’s left of me
[Bridge]
I promised I’d stay sober
I promised I’d forgive
I promised I’d die honest
Now I’m begging just to live (yeah)
I’m kissing all my vices
Like they’re old friends at the door
Every “never again” I whispered
Is lying broken on the floor
[Chorus]
Still I’m southbound self-destruct
Bleeding on this busted truck
Every mile from you to Georgia
I corrupt what I swore I’d be
I was clean when I left home
Now I’m buried in what I’ve done
Texas ripped the truth from me
Georgia’s getting what’s left of me
[Outro]
Headlights fade
State line sign in the mirror
Your ghost in the glass
And my faith disappearing

Style
rock, Southern-leaning alt metal with male vocals; palm-muted drop-tuned guitars over a stomping halftime groove in the verses, kick and toms feeling like heavy footsteps on asphalt. Chorus explodes with wide open chords, stacked shout-along gang vocals, and a roaring lead guitar doubling the vocal hook. Bridge dives into a darker, syncopated riff with whispered lines that build into a guttural scream before the final, desperate chorus., metal

Prompt
rock, metal. A song about my ex breaking me so bad in Texas that the trip back to Georgia made me break so many promises to myself. And that I was on a path of self destruction and full of sin
