We Rot in Stereo

(Intro — slow, heavy guitar, almost funereal)

⸻

(Verse 1)

I don’t fight it now, I let it bloom

Mold on the ceiling of every room

Your name’s a stain that spreads in me

Like rot pretending to be memory

I talk to you in the hollow dark

You answer back through my ribcage sparks

Not sure if you’re dead or grown inside

But either way, you never died

⸻

(Chorus)

We rot in stereo

Left ear, right ear, same decay

Your voice melts slow into my brain

We rot in stereo

No clean end, no final scene

Just you dissolving into me

We rot in stereo

Two ghosts sharing one skin

If I let you go, I lose what’s left within

⸻

(Verse 2)

I used to beg for you to stay

Now I just feed what eats my name

Every thought a shared disease

Every breath a slow release

You ain’t outside me anymore

You’re the echo in my core

If I carved you out tonight

There’d be nothing left to fight

⸻

(Bridge — almost tender, very distorted)

Maybe love was just this:

Not leaving.

Not healing.

Just blending

until there’s no border

to mourn.

⸻

(Final Chorus — huge, drowning guitars)

We rot in stereo

No you, no me, no line

Just one long, leaking mind

We rot in stereo

If this is what remains

Let it hum through both our names

⸻

(Outro — guitars fade, single tape click)

I don’t remember you anymore.

But I remember

what we became.
