Beautiful Lie

V5

[Instrumental Intro (metallic bass drone, mechanical percussion, distorted guitar over digital static)] (heartbeat pulse builds, muffled screams fade beneath the mix) --- [Verse 1 (rasped vocal, grinding rhythm, low synth hum beneath)] I gave you trust and called it grace You wore my hope across your face You built a god from rust and wire Then left me burning in your choir --- [Pre-Chorus (snare delay, whispered harmony, distortion rising)] You made my faith a loaded gun You pulled the trigger just for fun --- [Chorus (industrial hit, layered vocals, cinematic reverb)] How could you sell me such a beautiful lie Wrapped in the promise of a perfect sky You made me kneel in the ruins of my name Then kissed my scars and called it shame You built your heaven where my reasons die And made me worship your beautiful lie --- [Verse 2 (slow mechanical pulse, broken-glass samples, filtered vocal grit)] You dressed the truth in silver skin I let it cut me deep again You preached of mercy, love, and grace While feeding hunger to my face --- [Pre-Chorus (drone builds, heartbeat percussion, distorted echo)] You made me drown to learn to breathe You taught me loss was how to believe --- [Chorus (driving rhythm, metallic harmony, sub-bass rumble)] How could you sell me such a beautiful lie Wrapped in the promise of a perfect sky You made me kneel in the ruins of my name Then kissed my scars and called it shame You built your heaven where my reasons die And made me worship your beautiful lie --- [Bridge (glitch breakdown, whispered and screamed dual vocals)] (repeated softly, then screamed) You wrote my name in code and flame You built my prison from your name Your broken halo bends and fades I find my truth beneath its blades --- [Instrumental (industrial collapse, grinding bass, metallic echoes, distortion builds then cuts)] (feedback screams, silence swells, then pulse restarts) --- [Final Chorus (epic crescendo, distorted choir, emotional rasp)] How could you sell me such a beautiful lie Wrapped in the promise of a perfect sky You made me kneel in the ruins of my name Then kissed my scars and called it shame You built your heaven where my reasons die And I’m still haunted by your beautiful lie --- [Outro (soft static fade, piano note echoes, final whisper)] (whispered) “Truth was never part of the design…”
