[Intro] Velvet clings to clammy skin like glue I pull it closer, let it rot me through no light gets in, the air is thick and sweet I rot in velvet, slow and incomplete [Verse 1] The phone’s been dead so long it learned to smell I keep it buried where the blankets swell mirror’s leaking yellow, cracked and mean I smile at everything it’s shown me mold writes cursive on the coffee rim I lick the letters, taste what’s left of him hair mats thick against my neck like rope I wear the weight, I wear it like a coat [Pre-Chorus] I fed my drive to the carpet — stroke by stroke watched it choke and didn’t say a word [Chorus] Velvet rot, deep in the bone I chose the throne that’s overgrown no spark, no fight, just sweet collapse I kiss the mold and don’t look back Velvet rot — I wear it proud I’m the queen who never crawled back out [Verse 2] Dishes tower like forgotten shrines of shame I watch them ripen, give them each a name clothes on the floor are starting to ferment I breathe them in like incense, unrepentant I mastered vanishing without a trace turned total surrender into my embrace call it weakness if the word still stings I call it mastering how my ruin sings [Chorus] Velvet rot, deep in the bone I chose the throne that’s overgrown no spark, no fight, just sweet collapse I kiss the mold and don’t look back Velvet rot — I wear it proud I’m the queen who never crawled back out [Bridge] Tomorrow keeps sending letters I don’t read I let them pile until they start to bleed there is no version of me that wakes up clean I’ve already married what I used to dream [Outro] Velvet rot… deeper still… I’m not getting better… and I never will. --- Lyrics © 2026 TrixTuneX All Rights Reserved.
