Receipt in Blood (Part-6)🌌🕯️🩸🔥🎶🖤✨

[Verse 1] I said, “Ma’am, I changed my mind,” But the door was locked behind Floorboards creaked beneath my feet Like they knew what I would meet Old woman slid a paper through Ink still wet like morning dew Smelled like rust and something sweet Like a sin you’re bound to keep [Pre-Chorus] She said, “Child, you crossed the line,” With that crooked grin of mine “Every debt comes home to roost…” Then she asked me for the truth [Chorus] Receipt written deep in red Same shade as the fear I bled At the bottom signed in flame Someone wrote my full damn name Line by line it marked my soul Every secret, every toll I don’t recall what I agreed But it keeps collecting me [Verse 2] Clock hands stuck at quarter past Like this night was built to last Jars were lined along the wall Each one held something small Little teeth and wedding lace Photos with the faces scraped Names half-buried in the grain Some gone black and some still fresh [Pre-Chorus] She said, “Time don’t die in here, It just circles back through fear” Then she tapped a missing line And the room went still as pine [Chorus] Receipt written deep in red Same shade as the fear I bled At the bottom signed in flame Someone wrote my full damn name Line by line it marked my soul Every secret, every toll I don’t recall what I agreed But it keeps collecting me [Bridge] If I burn it, will it fade Or just make another page? If I run, will I break free Or drag the whole thing home with me? From the hall I heard her say, “You can leave, but debts don’t stay” Then the paper in my hand Started writing where I stand [Final Chorus] Receipt written deep in red Now it’s carved inside my head Every step I take away Writes another line to pay At the bottom signed in flame Still it knows my given name No amount of prayer or grief Ever ends that blood receipt [Outro] Ink still wet and breathing slow Like it knew I’d never go
