(Gothic Symphonic Nu-Metal Masterpiece) [Haunting Piano Intro] (Delicate, minor-key arpeggios in E minor, slow like black feathers falling onto still water. Single female voice, soft and trembling, almost childlike:) Verse 1 (ethereal alto, intimate, barely above a whisper) White dress on the bathroom floor Stained with yesterday’s regrets I practiced this a thousand times In mirrors that won’t forget The razor hums a lullaby Sharper than your last goodbye I’m folding into silence now No angels left to hear me cry Pre-Chorus (strings begin to swell, voice rising with fragile desperation) If grace is just a word Then let me bleed it dry I’m writing my confession In crimson calligraphy Pre-Chorus Explosion (sudden guttural scream as guitars detonate) I’M FUCKING DONE PRETENDING I’M ALIVE! Chorus (massive anthemic, soaring layered female vocals + thunderous male choir) This is my swan song in E minor Play it soft as I descend Let the orchestra devour Every note I can’t amend If heaven turns me away Bury me in this refrain My swan song in E minor The most beautiful way to end [Heavy Nu-Metal Breakdown – drop-tuned chugs, bouncing groove, double-kick barrage] Verse 2 (half-sung over palm-muted aggression, voice cracking) I counted every pill like prayers Swallowed them with your name The room is spinning cathedral slow Candles flickering shame I see you in the shadows Smiling like you always knew That I’d compose this finale Just to prove my love was true Pre-Chorus (orchestral hits stabbing like knives) Hold me down or let me float I’m too tired to fight If you won’t come and stop me Then kiss me one last night Pre-Chorus Explosion (primal, throat-shredding scream) I DARE YOU — FUCKING TRY! Chorus (even more colossal — vocals stacked to the heavens, full string section screaming) This is my swan song in E minor Play it soft as I descend Let the orchestra devour Every note I can’t amend If heaven turns me away Bury me in this refrain My swan song in E minor The most beautiful way to end [Bridge – piano returns, funeral pace, voice breaking into raw sobs] Mother, don’t come looking Father, close the door I was never strong enough To carry this anymore… Play it loud at my wake So they finally hear me sing [Final Build – everything erupts: choir, guitars, drums, strings in chaotic glory] (Screamed counter-melody under the soaring line:) “I’M SORRY — I TRIED — I LIED — GOODBYE!” Final Chorus (cathedral-shaking, voice pushing into operatic heights then shattering) This is my swan song in E minor Drowning angels in my wake Let the symphony consume me Every promise that I break If God won’t write the ending I’ll conduct it note by note My swan song in E minor The last breath in my throat [Outro – solo piano, single trembling note repeating as vocals whisper fade] “Beautiful… …isn’t it?” [Final piano chord rings into absolute silence
