TEETH IN THE DARK

[Intro – whisper → rising scream]
(whisper)
I hear you… crawling…
(build)
GET OUT OF MY HEAD

[Verse 1 – low scream]
I hear you breathing when the lights go dead
Filthy little voice inside my head
You say I’m broken, say I’m born to fail
Carve it in my bones like a rusted nail

I tried to drown you in a bottle of sin
But you learned how to live within
Now every thought is a loaded blade
And I’m the one that it loves to flay

[Pre-Chorus – strained clean]
I stitched my mouth just to shut you up
But you speak in blood when I cough it up

[Chorus – clean + layered screams]
I’m not afraid of the dark—I live in it
Teeth in the void and I’m feeding it
Every fucked up thought I hide
Comes back swinging from the other side

Let it bite, let it tear my heart
I was rotten from the fucking start
If there’s a devil behind my grin
Then I’ve been shaking hands with him

[Verse 2 – aggressive scream]
I see your face when I close my eyes
Twisted reflection I can’t deny
You wear my skin like it’s yours to keep
While I’m buried alive underneath

I tried to pray but the words felt fake
Like a hollow god I couldn’t make
So I spit them out with the rest of my doubt
Now there’s nothing left to believe in now

[Pre-Chorus – higher clean]
I broke my fists on my own skull
Trying to kill what I can’t pull

[Chorus – bigger, layered]
I’m not afraid of the dark—I live in it
Teeth in the void and I’m feeding it
Every fucked up thought I hide
Comes back swinging from the other side

Let it bite, let it tear my heart
I was rotten from the fucking start
If there’s a devil behind my grin
Then I’ve been shaking hands with him

[Breakdown – full scream]
Cut me open—watch it crawl
Black veins dripping down the wall
No escape, no higher ground
Just the echo of a broken sound

I am the sickness I tried to cure
Every scar just makes it pure
IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO BLAME
SAY MY FUCKING NAME

[Final Chorus – clean + scream clash]
I’m not afraid of the dark—I am the night
Every wrong inside me feels so right
No more running, no more lies
Just the truth bleeding through my eyes

Let it choke, let it take control
I dug this grave, now I fill the hole
If I’m the monster under my skin—
LET THE FUCKING NIGHTMARE BEGIN

[Outro – soft clean → whisper]
I’m not afraid…
Never was…

Raw, emotional, hard rock
