[Title: Forever] [Style: Dark 90s grunge x hardcore, drop-tuned, INSANE screams, layered vocals, multiple breakdowns] [Intro – phone-filtered, whispered → strained scream tail] I been callin’ out forever But forever never answers back I been fallin’ down forever And I know this is a trap [Band drops in – huge sludgy riff, toms, bass grinding, background distant screams on “forever”] [Verse 1 – low, gritty sing → sudden mid screams on key words] Woke up with the taste of metal on my tongue Ashtray heart, lungs black, mind numb Posters on the wall just peel and fade Please fucking hold me while I rot in the shame Pill bottles floating inside of hell Four walls shift like they hate themself A voice hides deep in the blades of the fan Says I’ll never be more than a broken man [short high scream tail on “man”] [Pre-Chorus – pitch climbs, backing fry screams under last words] Every time I try to climb, the ladder turns to dust Every promise that I make just corrodes with rust [Chorus – huge open chords, AIC-style harmonies + scream doubles on “Forever”] [Lead: strained melodic yell, backing: eerie harmony + low growl] Forever You wrote that word in my head Forever You made me your sweet, beautiful death Forever You lit me up, then you burned it all down Forever Just means “I’ll stay ’til I’m tired of you now” [background: long shriek under “now”] [Breakdown 1 – half-time stomp, single-string chugs, full-on screams] [Spoken → snapped scream] You hear me call… you never answer… You watch me drown… you call it “forever”… [All screamed, gang answers, each hit on a chug] GET! OUT! MY! FUCKIN’! HEAD! GET OUT OF MY FUCKING HEAD NO! MORE! OF! YOUR! “FOREVER”! [Verse 2 – darker, shouted sing, constant grit, random screams under lines] I talk to cracks crawling over the ceiling Paint flakes down every time I’m reeling Shoebox full of things I should burn Floorboards creak like they know I’ll never learn I’ll never fucking learn (fuck!!!!) [Pre-Chorus 2 – lead sung hard, backing high shrieks on last words] Every time I try to sleep, the voices turn me out Fuckkk the forever that they lied about!!! [Chorus – even harder, double-tracked, scream layers thicker] Forever You wrote that word in my head Forever You made me your sweet, beautiful death Forever You lit me up, then you burned it all down Forever Just means “I’ll stay ’til I’m tired of you now” [Bridge – clean guitars, soft vocal → end line explodes to scream] I write your name in the dust on my shelf Just to prove that I’m not talking to myself If I fade out slow, would you notice the light When the static eats the whole room at night [last line: start low, end as ripping high scream] I CAN’T GET OUT… I’M TRAPPED… [Final Breakdown – slow, crushing, layered high/low screams] I can’t get out… I’m trapped… [low growl] NO MORE FOREVER IN MY HEAD… [high shriek + gang “HEAD!”] [Final Chorus – first half half-time, second half full-speed, gang “FOREVER” shouts] Forever You wrote that word in my head Forever You made me your sweet, beautiful death Forever You lit me up, then you burned it all down Forever Just means “I’ll stay ’til I’m tired of you now” [Outro – fading harmonies, feedback, distant screams whispering “forever”] Forever… forever…
