Last Choice

[Verse 1]
Burned my hands
Building you a kingdom
Watched you smile
As you set it all on fire
Every promise
Pinned me to your altar
You prayed my name
Then walked right down the aisle with him
[Pre-Chorus]
You kissed my scars like you owned them
Then laughed when they split open
[Chorus]
I was your backbone
Your shelter
Your storm
You were my downfall
Dressed up as “forevermore”
You called me “only”
While you kept the door half open
(Last choice, last voice)
I was the throne you stood on
Just to reach his eyes above me
You were my always
I was your “if nothing else”
Your last choice
[Verse 2]
All my nights
Hung on every message
You went quiet
Saying you were “tired again”
Turns out “tired”
Meant you lying on his shoulder
While I stayed awake
Holding up your broken sky
[Pre-Chorus]
You wore my faith like a necklace
Then snapped it when you left breathless
[Chorus]
I was your backbone
Your shelter
Your storm
You were my downfall
Dressed up as “forevermore”
You called me “only”
While you kept the door half open
(Last choice, last voice)
I was the throne you stood on
Just to reach his eyes above me
You were my always
I was your “if nothing else”
Your last choice
[Bridge]
[Male roar
Half-time]
You didn’t just leave
You carved me out
Piece by piece
You didn’t just lie
You taught my heart how to die
[Female voice
Soaring]
But from these ruins
I rise alone
You can’t crawl back when you lose your home
[Breakdown]
I gave you everything
You gave me empty rings
I was your “maybe” thing
Now hear this ending sing (hey!)
[Chorus]
I was your backbone
Your shelter
Your storm
You were my downfall
Dressed up as “forevermore”
You called me “only”
While you kept the door half open
(Last choice, last voice)
Now this throne you stood on
Cracks and falls from under your feet
You were my always
Now you’re just a distant noise
I’m nobody’s last choice

Crushing modern metalcore: downtuned guitars and tectonic sub-bass under layered male roars and soaring female vocals. Intro starts sparse then detonates into double-kick fury. Verses grind with palm-muted chugs and dissonant drones; choruses open wide with big melodic hooks, side-chained synth pads, and stacked harmonies. Bridge hits half-time with guttural lows then climbs into a climactic dual-vocal release., vocal
