Porcelain Lies

Verse 1

She walked in like a whisper, candle smoke and bone

Eyes like frozen rivers, heart carved out of stone

Said love was just a weapon, and I was just a name

Now I sleep with shadows whispering blame

Pre-Chorus

She kissed like a curse, soft as a scream

Told me I was hers in a fever dream

But the moon saw her dancing in someone else’s grave

And the stars turned their backs the night she walked away

Chorus

Porcelain lies in a mouth full of sin

She wore her halo just to reel me in

Now I’m stuck in this house she built out of screams

Where the mirrors bleed and the walls still dream

I loved a ghost with a butcher’s smile

She stitched my heart then burned it vile

And I still hear her voice through the static and rot:

“I never loved you… I just forgot.”

Verse 2

She kept my ribcage as a trophy on a shelf

Said, “You can’t spell mercy without a little hell.”

Every photo she took, my eyes were gone

And the clock stopped ticking when she moved on

Bridge

There’s a cradle in the attic and it cries my name

There’s blood in the piano when I play her games

She left her scent in the coffin sheets

And her laughter crawls up from the basement deep

Chorus (repeat)

Porcelain lies in a mouth full of sin

She wore her halo just to reel me in

Now I’m stuck in this house she built out of screams

Where the mirrors bleed and the walls still dream

I loved a ghost with a butcher’s smile

She stitched my heart then burned it vile

And I still hear her voice through the static and rot:

“I never loved you… I just forgot.”

Outro (whispered)

Oh, she walks in dreams where dead men sleep

With my soul in her locket, six fathoms deep

And if you see her — run. Don’t speak.

She’ll kiss your wounds and make them weep.
