V5.5

[Verse 1] [clean, close-mic, restrained] I keep two rooms inside this chest Locked the same door, called it rest Told you both the truth in pieces Never whole, just enough to hold you [Pre-Chorus] I cheated, I lied Two of them, too many In my mind [Chorus] [breaking into high desperate scream on "killed"] I don't deserve this pain I don't deserve my reign I killed both of youuu In my heart, love you till I die [Verse 2] [clean, torn between two threads] One of you I chose in daylight One of you I kept for midnight I wasn't split, I was just weak Both of you were real, that's the sickness [Pre-Chorus] I cheated, I lied Two of them, too many In my mind [Chorus] I don't deserve this pain I don't deserve my reign I killed both of youuu In my heart, love you till I die [Bridge] [stripped down, almost spoken, drums drop to near silence] I can't help it I can't help it Some men build to protect I built to hide [Build] [drums returning, weight climbing, guitar riff thickening] I can't help it I can't help it [Final Chorus] [full weight, scream cracking through, close-mic intimacy still intact underneath] I don't deserve this pain I don't deserve my reign I killed both of youuu In my heart, love you till I die I can't help it I can't help it [Outro] [just vocal and one guitar arpeggio, everything else cut] I loved you both That's the wall I built
