[Intro – faint hiss, low heartbeat bass, distant reversed whisper: “again…”] Marlow (soft, breathy): Lit the wrong candle, said the wrong name Stared too long into the flame I traced a circle, but broke the line Now shadows sleep where light should shine ⸻ [Pre-Chorus – Echo, whispered and reversed:] I didn’t mean to But I never don’t It always ends with A whispered don’t ⸻ [Chorus – Marlow, shaky but intense] I hexed myself again Trying to forget your skin Made a charm from all our pain But all it did was let you in Again Again ⸻ [Verse 2 – Kane, spoken softly like reading from an old book] Mirror cracked where you once stood I spilled my name into the wood You never had to curse me back I was broken before the pact ⸻ [Bridge – Echo layered whisper loop, faint tambourine jingle] “again again again again again…” tape warble and breath ⸻ [Final Chorus – Marlow, layered with Echo] I hexed myself again Built a cage and called it skin Drew a sigil on my tongue But the spell came out all wrong Again And again And again ⸻ [Outro – silence creeps in, faint laugh, mic cuts out]
