[Verse 1 – Spoken/clean]
Footsteps echo in a world gone dim
Fluorescent flicker, humming hymn
Steel toe boots on polished stone
Feels colder now—I walk alone
Eyes forward, hands behind
Every breath, a borrowed time
A thousand sins in a single file
Each one bleeding down the aisle
[Pre-Chorus – Building tension]
I see the faces, blurred and gray
All the ghosts I locked away
I whisper lies to quiet truth
Still wearing scars from my youth
[Chorus – Screamed/clean mix]
This is my reckoning—
A requiem wrapped in flame
Don’t say my name like you knew me
Don’t pray for me now—it’s too late
I walk the line I drew in blood
This path I paved, I can’t outrun
I stare down fate beneath this light
If hell is real—then make it bright
[Verse 2 – Confessional, darker tone]
I remember when I stopped feeling pain
When love felt like a loaded chain
I held her hand, I broke her trust
Turned everything I touched to rust
The judge wore black, I wore a smile
They called me quiet—dead inside
But I was fire in a paper mask
A fuse just waiting for the blast
[Pre-Chorus – Screamed softly, intense tone]
I see her eyes in every wall
She screamed, I didn’t catch the fall
Now silence sings me to the grave
This is the peace I never gave
[Chorus – Heavier, drums kick in brutal]
This is my reckoning—
A requiem wrapped in flame
Don’t say my name like you knew me
Don’t cry for me now—it’s too late
The hallway hums like judgment day
No one’s here to look away
Just buzz and wires and blackened tape
This light… won’t let me escape
[Bridge – Instrumental + whispered/spoken lines]
(Whispers)
…thirteen steps…
…two guards…
…final breath tastes like metal…
[Outro – Spoken, final line screamed]
They strap me in
Say “close your eyes”
I count to one—
And feel the sky
This ain’t forgiveness…
This is just voltage.
LAST LIGHT.
