Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro – low voice, one acoustic strum, distant flames crackling] You remember when I begged, “Just let me go…” Then I turned around and said, “Don’t let me go.” And when no one answered, I whispered, “I let me go.” Now I’m here... and I deserve the fire. --- [Verse 1] You ever stare at your own reflection and see the devil grinning back? I wore every mask I could find but the rot still bled through the cracks. I said I wanted peace, but I left a war behind in every soul that touched me. They lit candles. I lit bridges. They prayed. I disappeared. --- [Chorus – screamed or chanted] Don’t let me go— Let me burn. I made this coffin, I lit this urn. No more tears, no last goodbye, Just smoke and ash and reasons why. Don’t put me out— let me feel it all. Every word I said, every time I let them fall. --- [Verse 2 – slower, more pained] In Part I, I wanted to vanish. In Part II, I wanted a reason. In Part III, I gave up trying. Now in Part IV, I’m finally being honest. I hurt people who loved me. I pushed away every hand. Now the heat on my skin feels more like justice than damnation. I said I wanted the pain to end— but maybe pain was all I was ever meant for. --- [Bridge – raw vocal break, no instruments] Don’t sing for me. Don’t forgive me. Don’t find my note and say it was the world that failed me. It was me. It was always me. --- [Final Chorus – half-spoken, half-screamed, unfiltered] Don’t let me go— let me scream. Let me feel what I did to every dream. The blood, the lies, the hollow shell, Let me drag it all through this private hell. Don’t let me go— keep me in this flame, I don’t want peace. I want the blame. --- [Outro – whispered, nearly silent] No heaven. No hell. Just this. Just me. Still burning. ---
