Intro [Intro, minimalist, dark atmospheric synth, dark pop rhythem] [Female, close-mic whisper] Funny. I used to believe you. [Male, spoken word, gritty] You thought we were broken? [Female] Not broken. Just done. [Both] Let’s burn it down. [Drop: Heavy dark pop industrial 808 bass, distorted synth pulses] Verse 1 [Verse 1: Female lead, breathy but intense, dark pop style] First it was my phone, said you needed peace of mind Then it was my friends, said they weren't the loyal kind You said nobody else would ever love me like you do And I hated myself a little more each time I believed you. [Verse 1: Male lead, raspy, rhythmic dark pop flow] Yeah, they box us in, tell us how we should bleed Keep your mouth shut, son, just take what you need Forget your expectations, your plaques, and your rules We’re done being your well-behaved fools. Pre-Chorus [Pre-Chorus: Alternating vocals, building tension, ticking percussion] [Female] I kept bending for you till there was nothing left of me [Male] But I’m kicking down the heavy iron door [Female] Then one day I looked at you and felt absolutely nothing [Both] And we’re choking you out with our own twisted dreams! Chorus [Chorus: Both, massive dark pop hook, explosive rock-pop belting, layered vocal harmonies] Now we’re bleeding crimson, burning up in yellow light! You wanted a surrender—but we’re starting a fight! Yeah, it cost us our sanity to break through the gears So we’re painting our freedom in blood, sweat, tears! (Blood! Sweat! Tears!) Yeah, we’re painting our freedom in blood, sweat, tears! Verse 2 [Verse 2: Male lead, dark pop melodic rap style] They look at us sideways like we lost our minds 'Cause we walked away from the future they pre-designed They wanted us sad, weeping under their reign But we weaponized the pressure, redirected the pain. [Verse 2: Female lead, intense and sharp vocals] I used to say sorry just to keep another peace Made myself so small that even I forgot to breathe If I’m a monster to you, then I’m a masterpiece of art You can keep the girl you broke. I'm taking back my heart. Pre-Chorus [Pre-Chorus: Alternating vocals, building tension] [Female] I kept bending for you till there was nothing left of me [Male] But I’m kicking down the heavy iron door [Female] Then one day I looked at you and felt absolutely nothing [Both] And we’re choking you out with our own twisted dreams! Chorus [Chorus: Both, massive dark pop hook, explosive rock-pop belting] Now we’re bleeding crimson, burning up in yellow light! You wanted a surrender—but we’re starting a fight! Yeah, it cost us our sanity to break through the gears So we’re painting our freedom in blood, sweat, tears! (Blood! Sweat! Tears!) Yeah, we’re painting our freedom in blood, sweat, tears! Bridge [Bridge: Low pulsing dark pop synth, heavy breathing, intimate whispering] [Male] They think they can box us. They think we’re gonna fold. [Female] I spent years trying to make him happy. Forgot what happy felt like. [Male] You ready to take this all the way? [Female] I don't need to hurt him. I just need to leave. [Both] ONE, TWO, THREE, GO! [Build: Screaming industrial rock electronics, heavy metal guitar breakdown, aggressive chaos] Final Chorus [Chorus: Both, maximum intensity, screaming guitars mixed with dark pop bass] Now we’re bleeding crimson, burning up in yellow light! You wanted a surrender—but we’re starting a fight! Yeah, it cost us our sanity to break through the gears So we’re painting our freedom in blood, sweat, tears! (Blood! Sweat! Tears!) Yeah, we’re painting our freedom in blood, sweat, tears! Outro [Outro: Final aggressive chants, dark pop glitch synth, guitar feedback fadeout] [Female] I left my fear on the pavement. [Male] Sweat in the chase. [Female] And found the girl I thought I'd lost. [Both] Burning this whole place. [Final heavy electronic drum crash, dead silence]
