[Verse 2 – Seductive Baritone + Funky Groove] Your perfume’s gasoline and sugar dust A sinner’s dream, a voyeur’s trust We toast to lies with a poison grin And laugh like devils in sequined sin Moonlight dances in your cruel mascara Whispers slip from the Riviera You say "I want it all — and more" I give you my neck and hit the floor [Pre-Chorus – Build Up with Piano + Guitar Harmonics] [Falsetto again, aching] Ooooh, you beautiful curse Oooh, I’m your final verse Love me until it hurts… And then again [Chorus – Bigger, Louder, More Choir, Orchestral Pads] Spin me like a record in the dark Velvet guillotine — tear me apart Kiss me like you mean my ending I was born for your pretending Hearts in flames on a crystal floor You break me better than the ones before Velvet guillotine — cut me clean But make it glamorous, make it obscene [Bridge – Harpsichord + Synth Interlude + Baroque Vocal Harmony] [Melodic breakdown: harpsichord trill + analog synth pulse] [Spoken/sung in harmony, male + female duet:] “This isn’t love — it’s a luxury execution…” “This isn’t death — it’s my favorite delusion…” [Guitar solo with pitch-shifted harmonic runs and octave slides] [Final Chorus – Key Change + Epic Harmonic Stack + Choir] Spin me like a record in the dark Velvet guillotine — tear me apart Kiss me like you own the ending I was born for your pretending Hearts in flames on a mirrored floor You break me sweeter than ever before Velvet guillotine — strike me clean But make it timeless… make it a scene [Outro – Falsetto Echo, Delay Guitar, Wind-Like Reverb Trail] [Falsetto, fading:] Velvet guillotine... Cut me beautiful... Leave me eternal... [Final note held on synth pad + soft arpeggio + whispered breath]
