Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1 – Spoken/clean] Footsteps echo in a world gone dim Fluorescent flicker, humming hymn Steel toe boots on polished stone Feels colder now—I walk alone Eyes forward, hands behind Every breath, a borrowed time A thousand sins in a single file Each one bleeding down the aisle [Pre-Chorus – Building tension] I see the faces, blurred and gray All the ghosts I locked away I whisper lies to quiet truth Still wearing scars from my youth [Chorus – Screamed/clean mix] This is my reckoning— A requiem wrapped in flame Don’t say my name like you knew me Don’t pray for me now—it’s too late I walk the line I drew in blood This path I paved, I can’t outrun I stare down fate beneath this light If hell is real—then make it bright [Verse 2 – Confessional, darker tone] I remember when I stopped feeling pain When love felt like a loaded chain I held her hand, I broke her trust Turned everything I touched to rust The judge wore black, I wore a smile They called me quiet—dead inside But I was fire in a paper mask A fuse just waiting for the blast [Pre-Chorus – Screamed softly, intense tone] I see her eyes in every wall She screamed, I didn’t catch the fall Now silence sings me to the grave This is the peace I never gave [Chorus – Heavier, drums kick in brutal] This is my reckoning— A requiem wrapped in flame Don’t say my name like you knew me Don’t cry for me now—it’s too late The hallway hums like judgment day No one’s here to look away Just buzz and wires and blackened tape This light… won’t let me escape [Bridge – Instrumental + whispered/spoken lines] (Whispers) …thirteen steps… …two guards… …final breath tastes like metal… [Outro – Spoken, final line screamed] They strap me in Say “close your eyes” I count to one— And feel the sky This ain’t forgiveness… This is just voltage. LAST LIGHT.
