BACK-TO-BACK SCARS

(Low, grimy funk bass. Distorted 808s. Breath ragged.)

Verse 1

Yeah—

Heart like a brick in a blender,

Teeth clenched, I remember,

Your name taste bitter, December

In my veins, I surrender

To the ache, to the hate, to the venom you send her

I’m a mess, I’m a wreck, I’m a sin with a temper

Every text got me pacing, shaking, sweating

Every breath feel like I’m choking on a threat and

I don’t sleep, I just rot in the dark

Mind sharp, teeth gnash, thoughts bark

You carved your initials into my spine

Now I limp every time that I cross that line

Pre-Hook

You got me sick, you got me twisted

Love like a curse, I sniff it, sip it

I hate your voice, I crave your breath

You’re my fix, my theft, my death

Hook

Back-to-back scars, cut me, don’t stop

Love like a drug and I’m dumb, I pop

Heart full of rot, mouth full of bile

Say your name like a threat, not a smile

Back-to-back scars, bleed in the booth

I’d burn my whole damn soul for the truth

I hate that I need you, hate that it’s real

Hate how you hurt me, love how it feels

Verse 2

I’m spiraling fast, I’m snapping, I’m cracked

Mirror talk reckless, I’m losing the mask

You pull me in close just to spit me back out

Now my ribs feel hollow when I scream and shout

I fantasize fights just to feel you care

Every kiss feel sharp, like a blade in the air

I’m obsessed, I confess, I’m a problem, a plague

Say your name in my sleep like a prayer I can’t say

I tried to quit you—ha, that’s a joke

Cold sweats, tight chest, hands on my throat

I’d rather drown in the pain you provide

Than live one clean night without you inside

Bridge (half-sung, breaking)

Tell me you hate me, tell me you’re gone

Tell me you love me just to be wrong

Rip me apart, then beg me to stay

I live for the crash, not the getaway

Verse 3

Yeah—

I’m venom and need, I’m hunger and spite

I’d torch every bridge just to see your light

Friends say “run,” but I dig in deep

I like my hell loud, I like my demons cheap

You got me talking to walls, punching air

Bleeding my truth like you’re never there

I know you poison, I know you pain

Still chase your shadow through acid rain

Hook (final, louder)

Back-to-back scars, carve ‘em in time

Every love song I write sound like a crime

Heart stay feral, soul stay bruised

I don’t want healing—I want you

Back-to-back scars, scream my name

Set me on fire, call it flame

I hate that I love you, love that I ache

If this kills me slow—then let it break

(Outro: distorted laugh → heavy bass drop → cut.)
