Sever

[Verse 1 — tense, controlled] I fed the lie until it spoke Gave it breath inside my throat Watched it dress itself in light While it buried me alive I called it truth, I called it grace Let it wear a sacred face Every inch of what I gave Turned to something I can’t save [Pre-Chorus — rising anger] I said I didn’t need it I said I couldn’t feel it But it never fucking left me [Chorus — explosive] Cut it out—rip it clean I don’t want what it made me Every perfect, hollow line Every god that wasn’t mine Break it down—tear it free I don’t need it inside me If it leaves me fucking scarred At least I know what’s real is hard [Verse 2 — aggressive clarity] Every answer that it gave Kept me quiet, kept me safe Safe enough to lose my name Safe enough to stay the same I don’t want that empty calm I don’t want its borrowed arms I would rather feel it break Than live another second fake [Pre-Chorus — sharper, urgent] I tried to replace it I tried to erase it Now I’m done pretending [Chorus — bigger, layered] Cut it out—rip it clean I don’t want what it made me Every perfect, hollow line Every god that wasn’t mine Break it down—tear it free I don’t need it inside me If it leaves me fucking scarred At least I know what’s real is hard [Breakdown — full heavy release] (scream) BURN—IT—OUT (clean underlayer) I feel it coming back (scream) TEAR—IT—DOWN (clean) Even if it breaks me (both) I—WON’T—STAY [Final Outro — raw, stripped] There’s nothing left to hide behind No light to numb, no lie to find (quiet, final line) …now it’s just me
