Black Static
INSTRUCTIONS FOR AI MUSIC APP (not part of lyrics)
Tempo slow to mid-slow (70–75 BPM), No groove-based or rhythmic bounce, Avoid syncopated or “chugging” riffs, Guitars should be sustained, low-tuned, and atmospheric — long ringing minor chords with subtle dissonance, Think slow doom textures, not riff-driven metal, Use reverb and delay to create unease, Sparse piano accents in the background can add tension, Drums minimal and heavy — slow, deliberate hits, No groove patterns, More like distant thunder than a beat, Male vocal restrained but darker than Song I — controlled bitterness, not shouting, Slight distortion or saturation on certain lines for texture, not aggression, Female vocal enters later as a cold harmonic layer — soft but emotionally sharp, Minor interval harmonies, slightly dissonant, No soaring melodies, No dramatic breakdown, No big chorus lift, The song should feel suffocating and unresolved, End on sustained dissonant chord that slowly decays, Mood: sinister
There’s a sound beneath the silence Like insects in my head It whispers that I ruined you And left you for the dead I taste the metal in my mouth The rust of what I’ve done Every word I tried to fix Just fired another gun I keep your ghost inside my throat It scratches when I speak Every promise I once made Now stains the sheets in bleak You said I could be better You said I wasn’t lost But every time I touched the light I only burned the cross I drink to kill the static But it multiplies instead Black wires in my bloodstream Feeding what I dread I am not afraid of dying I’m afraid I’ll stay the same A shadow wearing human skin Addicted to the blame
