This is another song fom my upcoming Halloween album which I am about to complete. [Instrumental Intro] [Verse] I told him I’d love him till death He laughed like it was just a jest Didn’t see the storm in my chest Didn’t hear the truth in my breath [Prechorus] I said I was jealous real jealous He smiled like it was all careless [Chorus] Till death I said till death I meant He didn’t know how far it went The fire in my eyes wasn’t pretend Till death I said till death I meant [Verse 2] Mad to see that bitch with him Heart in shards but smile stayed thin Rage like thunder under my skin A game of calm I had to win [Bridge] I smile I smile while I bleed inside A volcano in the quiet I hide Ticking ticking with every stride Till death I said till death my guide [Guitar solo] [Chorus] Till death I said till death I meant He didn’t know how far it went The fire in my eyes wasn’t pretend Till death I said till death I meant [Instrumental Intro - Instrumentation: Soft slide guitar, mono clean electric guitar plucks, airy synth pad, faint vinyl crackle. - Production: Wide reverb, subtle delay. Keep mix spacious and simple, almost minimal. - Mood: Romantic, dreamy, slightly mysterious.] [Verse 1 - Instrumentation: Slide guitar melody continues, soft synth bed, minimal drums (brush snare or hi-hat). - Vocals: Female lead soft, intimate, close-mic’d, with faint harmony whispers. - Mix: Keep instruments panned gently left/right, vocals centered. Slight reverb tail on voice for intimacy. - Mood: Romantic but slightly uneasy.] “I told him I’d love him till death He laughed like it was just a jest Didn’t see the storm in my chest Didn’t hear the truth in my breath” [Prechorus - Instrumentation: Bass enters, sharper hi-hat, light staccato strings building tension. - Vocals: More urgent, double-tracked quietly. - Mix: Sub-bass grows in the background, stereo panning starts widening. - Mood: Suspense creeping in.] “I said I was jealous real jealous He smiled like it was all careless” [Chorus - Instrumentation: Distorted mono guitars, slide guitar fills, driving full drum kit, sweeping cinematic strings.- Vocals: Female lead soaring, with strong harmonies and layered “chant-like” backing vocals. - Mix: Wide stereo guitars, strings spread behind, drums and bass heavy in center. Reverb/delay to make chorus feel anthemic and danceable. - Mood: Catchy, powerful, but hiding danger beneath.] “Till death I said till death I meant He didn’t know how far it went The fire in my eyes wasn’t pretend Till death I said till death I meant” [Verse 2 - Instrumentation: Layered guitars + synth textures, deep bass groove, strings more dramatic. - Vocals: Calm but sharp, with tension. Backing harmonies echo certain words. - Mix: Subtle panning effects, instruments circling slightly in stereo. - Mood: Controlled rage, storm building.] Lyrics: Mad to see that bitch with him Heart in shards but smile stayed thin Rage like thunder under my skin A game of calm I had to win” [Bridge - Instrumentation: Drop to minimal (heartbeat kick, eerie synth, whispery backing vocals) - Build: Rising strings, distorted guitar feedback, percussion ticking like a clock. - Vocals: Emotional, dangerous, whispers doubled behind main vocal. - Mix: 3D stereo — whispers moving left to right, rising strings swelling behind like a storm. - Mood: Suspenseful, dangerous, about to erupt.] “I smile I smile while I bleed inside A volcano in the quiet I hide Ticking ticking with every stride Till death I said till death my guide” [Guitar Solo - Instrumentation: Slide guitar solo with 90s alt distortion, anguished bending notes. - Backing: Thundering drums, strings rising. Mix: Guitar panned slightly left, echo delay bouncing right. Vocals drop out. - Mood: Explosion of rage.] [Final Chorus - Instrumentation: Full power — distorted guitars, soaring strings, pounding drums, heavy bass, slide guitar fills. - Vocals: Commanding, layered harmonies, almost gospel-like strength. - Mix: Stereo guitars wide, strings spread across mix, drums and bass hitting hard in center, vocals doubled and thick. - Mood: Cinematic, dangerous, unforgettable climax.] “Till death I said till death I meant He didn’t know how far it went The fire in my eyes wasn’t pretend Till death I said till death I meant” [Ending - Instrumentation: Sudden cut-off on “meant” OR unresolved fade with feedback + string drone. - Mix: Leave lingering reverb tails, unsettling silence after. - Mood: Chilling, unresolved.]
