[Intro – Ambient + distant clean guitar, eerie reverb] (whispers layered) They carved your name in the walls… Not to remember… But to erase… [Verse 1 – Clean vocals → builds grit] Dragged through hallways, a ghost in the frame Every scar had a number, every bruise had a name Locker doors like thunder, laughter like knives They fed on the silence that swallowed my life Back row shadow, head down low Every word they said still echoes “Never gonna matter, never gonna rise” But they never saw the fire in my eyes [Pre-Chorus – rising tension, half-time drums] I bit my tongue till it bled black Buried every word they lacked But underneath the fracture— Something’s crawling back… [Chorus – Big melodic hook + screams underneath] I found a kingdom in the dark below Where the broken bones finally glow You made a monster—now you’ll see What you buried underneath me I hear the hollow calling out my name No more mercy, no more shame You built this crown with every scar Now I am what you are afraid of [Verse 2 – heavier, more aggression] Skipped every warning, ran from the light Through the woods where the world disappears at night Found a mouth in the earth, breathing cold Like it knew every secret I was never told Whispers in the cavern, ancient and vile “Give me your pain, stay a while…” Felt it crawl in my veins, turn my bones to stone For the first time in my life—I wasn’t alone [Pre-Chorus – harsher tone] Every shove, every lie Every night I wished to die Now it’s fuel beneath my skin— Let the reckoning begin [Chorus – Full force, layered screams] I found a kingdom in the dark below Where the broken bones finally glow You made a monster—now you’ll see What you buried underneath me I hear the hollow calling out my name No more mercy, no more shame You built this crown with every scar Now I am what you are afraid of [Breakdown – HEAVY, chugs, callout] (tempo drop feel, syncopated chugs) CALL OUT (low scream): You. Made. Me. This. [CHUG RIFF] 0-0-0—0-0—0-0-0—BLEGH Lyrics (rhythmic, punchy): Say my name when you choke on fear Every laugh still ringing in your ears You dug the grave—now lie in it I am the dark you can’t forget HALF-TIME DROP: Drag you down where the light won’t go Feel the weight of the undertow No forgiveness—no release Just the echo of your disease [Bridge – melodic + haunting, almost calm] I was just a kid you erased Now I’m something you can’t replace Every tear became the tide Nowhere left for you to hide (soft whisper) You should’ve left me in the dark… [Final Chorus – biggest, anthemic, layered gang vocals] I found a kingdom in the dark below Where the broken bones finally glow You made a monster—now you’ll see What you buried underneath me I hear the hollow screaming out my name Turned your cruelty into flame You built this crown with every scar Now I am what you are afraid of [Outro – fading distortion, eerie ambience returns] (whispers overlapping) You made me… You made me… You made me… (final low growl) Now live with it.
