“Glass Heels on Asphalt”

[Intro, start with hard deathcore drums] [Instrumental] [Break, Pause] [Female Shouts, Screams, Shouts, Screams, Shouts, Screams Rage] (growl & scream with rhythm) Blood on my hands! Glass in my feet! No mercy on these concrete streets! Meat and drugs — my holy creed, Saints don’t pray for the ones who bleed! You call it sin — I call it breath! Love was the needle, and I was death! Skin for shelter, smile for pain, Every kiss — another chain! [Break, Pause] [Verse 1 – Harsh Vocals, Controlled Shout] Born in the gutter, kissed by rain, Perfume hides the rot and shame. Neon angels, whisper “buy,” I sell my soul to stay alive. [Breakdown – Growl & Whisper contrast] [Lower growl] No one saves the broken kind. — [Higher scream] I stopped believing — left faith behind!— [Mid Section – Spoken Words, Atmospheric Drift] (voice softens, almost breathless) You came from nowhere — eyes steady, hands clean. Didn’t ask, didn’t buy, just… saw me. I didn’t believe in grace. I laughed in your face. But you stayed — and that terrified me. Maybe love isn’t light — maybe it’s the echo that stays when all the noise is gone. [Instrumental] [Break, Pause] [Bridge – Softly Sung, Transition to Warmth] You found my heart beneath the dust, you taught me how to rise, to trust. The mirror heals, the past lets go, and in your arms, the world turns slow. [Soft Chorus – no Shouts and screams, only empathetic, in love, pure heart, kitsch allowed] (angelic layered vocals, reverb, gentle rhythm) Glass heels on asphalt, I’m dancing free, Your love’s the light that carried me. No gods, no crowns, no fairytale spin, Just fire and hope beneath my skin. Glass heels on asphalt, hearts in bloom, From the filth we built our room. You didn’t save me — you helped me see, That love can grow in misery. [Outro – Whispered repetitions, fading heartbeat rhythm] (spoken softly, layered whispers) Glass heels... On asphalt... Still walking... Still shining... Still me.
