Nothing Left To Mend

Modern Metalcore / Destructioncore / Post-Breakdown Anthem, male

DeDemonicPrisma

[Intro – Low Guitar Ring + Drum Build]
	[—> Guitar slowly bends a dissonant chord in Drop A#]
	[—> Drums rise behind it — a slow snare march]
	[—> Vocal whisper]
“You can’t fix what I buried myself in.”
[→ Sudden burst of guitar chugs]
[→ Straight into Verse 1]

⸻

[Verse 1 – Screamed, Slow & Crushing]
Cracked my ribs to let the light in
But all it showed was rust and sin
Built the bridge then burned it slow
Watched my shadow let me go

I’m not the victim, not the fight
I’m just the silence left at night
The bandage ripped, the scar exposed
No healing here—just what I chose

⸻

[Pre-Chorus – Clean Build, Haunting Melody]
Don’t call this strength
It’s not a stand
It’s just the truth
That’s all I am

⸻

[Chorus – Clean + Screamed Harmony, Anthemic]
There’s nothing left to mend
No soul left to defend
I gave it all and watched it die
Now I’m the calm beneath the lie
Don’t sing me songs of peace
Don’t sell me your release
I’m not broken, I’ve just bent—
And there’s nothing
Left to mend

⸻

[Verse 2 – Faster Cadence, Raw Emotion]
Held my breath through all the noise
Used my blood to fill the void
They said, “You’re strong,” but turned away
When I had nothing left to say

I clawed through glass to feel again
But every cut just drew me in
Now I don’t fight, I don’t pretend—
I’m not a soul
I’m just the end

⸻

[Breakdown – Massive, Midtempo, Groovy + Violent]
SCREW YOUR HOPE—IT WAS NEVER MINE!
YOU SOLD ME FAITH AND CALLED IT FINE!
I’D RATHER DROWN IN WHAT I FEEL—
THAN EVER THINK THIS PAIN WAS REAL!

[→ Drop hits, full slam]
[→ Guitar squeals trail off like alarms]
[→ Drum accents hit like steel doors closing]

⸻

[Bridge – Clean + Whisper Layers]
[Clean]
This isn’t peace… this is release
This isn’t growth… just my disease
[Whispered under]
“You can’t fix what was never whole…”

⸻

[Final Chorus – Full Choir Backing, Screamed Layers]
There’s nothing left to mend
No message left to send
I burned the map, I sealed the road
And left the weight I used to hold
Don’t lift my name in prayer
Don’t act like you still care
I’m not a wound you comprehend—
I’m the truth
You can’t defend

⸻

[Outro – Reverb-Faded Guitar + Final Spoken Line]
[→ Guitar fades out into a single harmonic]
[→ One soft spoken line]
“And now you know who I really was.”
