(Carve your name into my chest...) (Take the knife of Infinity...) (You left my mind in a mess.) [Verse 1] [West Coast Rap Style, 112 BPM rhythmic West Coast bounce, crisp glitched percussion] [Male Vocal - Low, cynical drawl flow] Yeah, baby, you arrived like you were sent from above, Long curly hair... short skirt... strapped-on boots, And I knew this had to be love. Take the knife of Infinity, carve your name into my heart, This is where our story starts. I lay my heart bare, I love you without a care, This world kept on turning while your love kept on burning. Take the knife of Infinity, carve your name into my arm, Take the knife of Infinity... my love is rotting within your charm. [Pre-Chorus] [Hyperpop / Glitch, pitch-shifted octave synth, frantic jittery tempo feel] [Male Vocal - Desperate, bounce rap vocal delivery] Nights... nights of darkness within my crazy mind, A love so pure, a heart so kind. No relief, no break, no one here... To tell me that you were a mistake! And still I love you as if this is my end— Your crazy temper, your hateful words, Your fucking cheating... Everything about you I used to defend. [Chorus] [Dark EDM / Amapiano Drop, heavy chopped rock guitar riff, iconic Amapiano Log Drum, thick woody percussive bass, 112 BPM groove, haunting ethereal choir chant] [Male Lead - Distorted emotional scream - rap] Take the knife of Infinity! Mark my body, mark my soul! I am still trembling in your cold! Take the knife of Infinity, slice me open and let me bleed! I am still choking on the lies you feed! You are all I know how to love... I hate you, but you are my only need! [Verse 2] [West Coast Rap / Emo-Trap Bounce, sub-rattling 808s, gritty street percussion] [Male Vocal - Aggressive, breathy rap delivery] I lay at night, you are still fucking with my head. I cannot leave you, I cannot let go, You are underneath my skin, you are still in my bed. Still clinging to the bullshit, every fucking word you said. Take the knife of Infinity, carve your name into my heart... You were supposed to be my ending. Not my fucking start. (Wasting my time in this silent dark...) [Bridge] [Lo-Fi / Ethereal, ambient silence, muffled lo-fi bassline, distant airy synth] [Male Vocal - Raw, gravelly Alt-Rock whisper to scream] And so it was that you would take from me: My pleasure... my pain... the man I was supposed to be. Your name on my phone... Blinded, distorted, deformed, tears, sorrow—I cannot see. And still you tell me that you'll come back to me. [Guitar Solo] [Screaming heavily distorted guitar solo, whammy pedal pitch slides, hyperpop-influenced pitch bends] [Verse 3 / Pre-Chorus Extension] [Heavy distortion guitar, live drum kit feel, high energy Alt-Rock style] [Male Vocal - Intense, emotional delivery] You are all I know, baby girl, living inside my mind. Your seductive whispers... your sex... your body... Everything you used to keep me blind. Why do you care? Why do you keep me here? Everything you were, perfectly underlined. [Final Chorus] [The Total Fusion, full arrangement, West Coast bounce, Amapiano log drums, heavy Grunge guitar, layered ethereal choir] [Male Lead - Full power emotional rap-sing] Take the knife of Infinity! Mark my body, mark my soul! I am still trembling in your cold! Take the knife of Infinity, slice me open and let me bleed! I am still choking on the lies you feed! You are all I know how to love... I hate you, but you are my only need! [Outro / Ending] [Amapiano log drums, gradual strip down, lo-fi guitar riff, pitch-warped tape stop effect] [Male Vocal - Spoken word, fading breathy delivery] I have to let go... I need to heal. Can't forget... can't let go... something to feel. Need you... need me to walk away. Need to breathe again... for heaven's sake. (Take the knife of Infinity...) [Click to silence]
