(Tempo: 124 BPM. Sound: Heavy, distorted sub-bass, cold cinematic pads, and a sharp, snapping electronic percussion.) **(Intro)** (Heavy pulsing bass kicks in immediately. A sharp, metallic percussion hit every four bars. No melody, just rhythmic tension.) **(Verse 1)** I’m scrubbing the scent of you off the linens Bleaching the hallways, the air is thinning You left a smudge on the glass of the door A kind of a stain that I can’t ignore So I’m peeling the wallpaper back to the brick The silence is heavy, the tension is thick I’m counting the places you used to reside And burning the maps to the places you hide. **(Pre-Chorus)** (Beat drops out, leaving only a low, humming synth pad that swells in volume) One more trace, one more thread One more word that you never should’ve said. **(Chorus)** (Explosion of sound: High-energy pulsating synths, heavy side-chain compression) Undo the knot, unwrite the line Take back the hours you borrowed from mine I want the void where your shadow used to be Cut every anchor, just erase me Scrub the memory, bleach the view I’m deleting the version of me that knew you Erase me. (Beat drop: Heavy bass thump) Erase me. **(Verse 2)** (Beat returns, driving and minimal) I’m changing the locks, I’m renaming the street The victory here is a total defeat You’re a smudge on a canvas, a crack in the wall A fever that breaks just before the fall I’ll strip every room till the floorboards are bare I’ll breathe in the vacuum, I’ll swallow the air If I scrub hard enough, the skin will come off And the last of your laughter is nothing but a cough. **(Pre-Chorus)** (Atmospheric shift, cold and spacious) One more trace, one more thread One more word that you never should’ve said. **(Chorus)** (Full energy, pulsating synth bass) Undo the knot, unwrite the line Take back the hours you borrowed from mine I want the void where your shadow used to be Cut every anchor, just erase me Scrub the memory, bleach the view I’m deleting the version of me that knew you Erase me. (Beat drop) Erase me. **(Bridge)** (Tempo stays same, but the synth becomes a rhythmic, heartbeat-like throb) White out the pages Break all the cages I’m a blank slate now I’m a forgotten vow (Building intensity) Wash it away Wash it away Wash it all away! **(Outro)** (Heavy synth chords, slowing down) Unwrite the line. Undo the knot. Everything you were... Is everything I’m not. (Final heavy bass hit) Erase me.
