[Verse 1] You shook my hand Knives in your sleeve Said you were family You watched me bleed You crossed your heart Crossed out my name Smiled in my face Spat in my veins (yeah) [Pre-Chorus] You called it love It felt like rust Every promise Turned into dust [Chorus] You were the halo I trusted Rust on a nail in my spine You were the home I believed in Boarded me up from the inside I bit down on your broken word Now there’s glass in my gums In my lungs In my blood You were the one that I worshipped Now I scream your name in the mud (scream your name in the mud) [Verse 2] You lit the fuse Said it was incense Watched the room burn Blamed it on “instinct” You held my scars Counted them slow Said you’d protect me Then pushed me below [Pre-Chorus] How could you grin While I broke apart You signed your lies Right on my heart [Chorus] You were the halo I trusted Rust on a nail in my spine You were the home I believed in Boarded me up from the inside I bit down on your broken word Now there’s glass in my gums In my lungs In my blood You were the one that I worshipped Now I scream your name in the mud (in the mud) [Bridge] (Why?) Why did I choke on every “I’m fine”? (Why?) Why did I kneel while you drew that line? All of your “always” Hung like a noose You pulled it tighter Called it “the truth” (liar) [Heavy Guitar Solo] [Chorus] You were the halo I trusted Bent into thorns ’round my mind You were the home I believed in Bricked every window with lies I bit down on your broken word Now there’s glass in my gums In my lungs In my blood (let it flood) You were the one that I worshipped Now I scream your name till it cuts (till it cuts) [Outro] [Harsh screams over ringing guitars] You were the halo Now you’re the haunt You were my shelter Now you’re the rot I walk away From what we were You taught me hell I learned to burn (burn)

rock, Bleak screamo-emo metal with male vocals: palm-muted, down-tuned guitars chugging under dissonant ambient drones, kick-heavy double-time drums. Verses ride a tense half-time groove with melodic lead motifs; choruses explode into layered screams and clean top-line. Middle section opens into a wide, reverb-soaked heavy rock guitar solo over a shifting chord bed. Occasional gang shouts and distant backing howls, mix aggressive but spacious, letting feedback and tails bleed between sections., screamo, ambient, metal, emo
