CUSTOM

[Slow ambient intro – clean guitar, low synth swell]

It’s not a fault of mine, that I was shaped by twisted minds,
And the only thing is grief I find, it warps my sight and leaves me blind,
Because it was twisted minds, that shaped this twisted world view of mine,
I’m caught between people are kind, or their cruel intentions and design,

[Soft percussive build begins, slow toms, low strings]

I don’t have a desire, a suicidal jump into the fire,
Because I’m walking the wire, but with bare feet on a vine of briar,
Because I’m caught between not good enough, because I don’t believe in the fluff,
When I’m told I’m not good enough, it’s torture when it should just be rough,

[Build intensifies — subtle distortion creeping in]

Because it’s never enough, I’m seen as cruel when I deeply love,
Because I’m not good enough..
(I~~~~)
[Guitar breakdown — down-tuned swell, slow and heavy]

Let me take you down to nostalgia’s garden,
See the flowers that calcify when my heart hardens,
Because I’m made to suffer, by no one’s hands I’m pulled under,
And thorns hold me up by my strings~~

[Atmospheric bridge — ambient guitar sustains, whispering feedback]

Because grief is what made you, distorting my trust and worldview,
And at the bottom of that garden is a grave,
Because bones come alive in rage, and my thoughts come like stings~~~

[Verse returns — instrumental simplifies, piano or clean guitar under vocals]

[Repeat – add vocal harmony or falsetto layer]

[Bridge – tension builds, low strings, ambient swells]

It’s bipolar in nature,
Cause I’m not a creator,
I received the treatment of an unwanted creature,
And it made me into a destroyer.

[Small pause — breath space]

I’m misaligned, there I’m left with a simple mind,
Caught in darkness as I remind,
That it was wicked minds,
That destroys me down to my D.N.A~~

[Breakdown returns — guitars come in heavy but slow]

I want to help but I’m not equipped,
And when I fail I self-whip,
Because between salt in the wound and a quip,
A memory will send me spiraling down a nightmare trip,

And I want to help but I’m the problem and in the way~~

[Chorus / Main Refrain — layered vocals, vocal crescendo]

[Repeat x2 with more harmonies, falsetto lift in final lines]

[Bridge / Spoken-soft (or whispered harmony)]

Let me say it, let’s not mistake it,
I was caught up in between problems,
Can’t find solutions and intrusive thoughts I can’t stop them,
Ever wondered what it was like to not be a favorite,
Constantly reminded and it breaks my spirit,

[Slow fade of instruments — haunting atmosphere]

Ghosts howl in empty halls,
And there was always writing on the walls,
It’s like looking into an empty mirror without a reflection,
No one likes the downer with the imperfection,
Bleach me out and call me an infection,
Leave me bare as comes the inspection,

[Final chorus — slow, mournful delivery. Minimal instrumentation]

[Repeat x2 — end on isolated vocal line or soft echo]
