“Velvet on the knife" [Intro – Whispered female voice] You said I felt like velvet on your skin But velvet cuts if you drag it against a wound You said you’d die for love — I smiled. Let’s see how deep your veins run. --- [Verse 1 – Female vocals, slow and smoky] I wore red just to see if you’d bite Sipped your lies like a midnight rite Told me love’s a game, I said “bet your life” Now I’m the itch you can’t scratch, the sleep in your eye --- [Pre-Chorus – Male vocals, low and intense] She’s in my head like a church on fire Whispering sins in a ghost choir Can’t tell if I want her or need to run But the blade’s in my chest and she’s having fun --- [Chorus – Both, aggressive and climactic] Velvet on the knife, I make danger feel like home I don’t want your heart, I want your pulse alone Lick the fear off your lips, make you moan through the pain You begged for devotion — now drown in my name --- [Verse 2 – Female vocals, sultry and cruel] Told your secrets to my mirror just to feel them shiver You say I’m toxic — but baby, I’m the river That you drink from with cracked lips and shame And crawl back to when the good girls forget your name --- [Pre-Chorus – Male vocals, cracked and desperate] She’s got a throne made of old regrets I knelt before her, lit my last cigarette Told her I’m done, she said “oh you’re not” Now I dream in screams and wake up hot --- [Chorus – Both, louder and more chaotic] Velvet on the knife, I make danger feel like home I don’t want your soul, just the blood in your tone I’m the echo in the silence, the high in your low You called me salvation — I made it a show --- [Verse 3 – Female vocals, venomous whisper] You taste like prayers that never reached heaven Like lust served cold on a silver weapon I kept your voice in a locket of bone Now I wear it like perfume when I’m alone --- [Bridge – Female vocals, soft and eerie] You loved me like a dare Now you’re gasping for air Isn’t it sweet? How you wanted the storm but not the flood beneath --- [Instrumental Break – Industrial echo, distortion rising] (sound of heartbeat + breath + distant screams mixed with rising synths and blade scraping metal) --- [Final Chorus – Screamed and whispered, distortion-heavy] Velvet on the knife, you kissed it and bled Told me I’m heaven — but we both know it’s red Now you're clawing for mercy, but you called me fate And darling, I don’t forgive. I detonate. --- [Spoken Interlude – Female voice, dead calm] I gave you a choice. Obsession or escape. You kissed both sides of the coin And still begged to play. --- [Outro – Layered female harmonies, ghostly] I warned you: Velvet only feels soft... ...until it wraps the blade. ...until it wraps the blade. ...until it wraps the blade.
