(worship is never clean, love is never safe, and devotion always costs more than you think.)

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐔𝐌𝐌𝐎𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆 (when temptation feels like prophecy)

“You called for me, even when you swore you wouldn’t.”

“It’s dangerous, the way you say my name—like it’s a sin you want to keep repeating.”

“You act like you didn’t mean to summon me, but look where we are now.”

“There’s a rhythm in the way you breathe—don’t pretend it’s not for me.”

“You keep saying you’re pure, but I can smell the worship in your pulse.”

“If you knew what I was, would you still let me touch you like this?”

“You invited the dark in—and I came hungry.”

𝐕𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐄𝐗 (the pull between ruin and rebirth)

“You make destruction look like devotion.”

“Every time I try to leave, you pull me back in.”

“We don’t heal—we orbit each other until something gives.”

“You said you wanted peace, but your hands only know how to fight.”

“Do you crave the storm, or just what it does to us?”

“We could’ve been calm, but you wanted chaos instead.”

“You’ve always had a gift for turning love into gravity.”

𝐀𝐋𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐄𝐃 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐒 (a body offered, a soul unraveling)

“You look at me like prayer, but you touch me like confession.”

“Does it count as love if we’re only whole when we’re breaking?”

“Every time I breathe you in, I forget who I was before.”

“You say you want me, but you worship what hurts.”

“It feels like you’re trying to erase me with your mouth.”

“We keep pretending it’s about control—but it never was.”

“You can’t call this devotion when you tremble like that.”

𝐅𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐌𝐄 (devotion taken to its softest cruelty)

“Say you’ll stay. Just once. Lie to me if you have to.”

“I’d let you ruin me if it meant you’d remember.”

“You make surrender sound like salvation.”

“You never had to ask me to fall. I already did.”

“What are you so afraid of—me, or what you feel when I touch you?”

“If I sink, promise you’ll follow.”

“You wanted worship. I wanted you.”

𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐑𝐎𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐂 (the beauty in what’s gone cold)

“You stopped loving me quietly—like a light fading in another room.”

“I used to know every color of you. Now, everything’s grey.”

“You said you were done feeling, but your hands still shake.”

“Maybe we were only vivid because we were burning.”

“Do you miss what we were, or what I made you feel?”

“You can’t paint over absence.”

“Even silence sounds like you.”

𝐃𝐘𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐎𝐍 (love as ritual, worship as curse)

“Every time I pray, it’s your name that slips out.”

“You wanted to be a god. I made you one.”

“I don’t know if I love you, or if I’m bound to you.”

“You keep saying it’s devotion, but I can feel the hunger behind it.”

“You can’t serve two masters—but you’re trying, aren’t you?”

“I think we mistook obsession for grace.”

“If this is faith, then I’ll die a believer.”

𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐄𝐔𝐑 (the hunger for something divine that loves you back)

“You said we could be infinite. You never said it would hurt.”

“If you’re a god, why do you look so lonely?”

“I’d kneel, if you asked me softly enough.”

“I thought I was worshipping light, but it was just you.”

“Do you even remember why you started saving me?”

“You said you’d protect me, not consume me.”

“If I’m your offering, don’t look away.”

𝐀𝐐𝐔𝐀𝐑𝐈𝐔𝐌 (grief trapped behind glass, still trying to breathe)

“You still visit the places I haunt.”

“It’s strange—how absence can fill a room.”

“You said it was mercy, but it felt like drowning.”

“Do you ever miss what you killed?”

“I keep replaying the moment you looked away.”

“I thought if I stayed quiet, you’d stay.”

“Maybe we were always just reflections of what we wanted.”

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓 (the ache that never learns its lesson)

“You say you want love, but only if it hurts first.”

“I keep giving you softness, and you keep bleeding on it.”

“Do you know what it feels like to want someone who’s already gone?”

“You want devotion. I want peace. We’ll never match.”

“Every time I reach for you, you turn to shadow.”

“You were supposed to love me, not unmake me.”

“If this is the love you want, I hope it destroys you.”

angst, identity, collapse, healing, and everything in between.

❛ i tried so hard to be what you needed. ❜

❛ i don’t even recognize myself anymore. ❜

❛ you keep asking what’s wrong like i’d actually tell you. ❜

❛ it’s like i’m screaming and no one hears it. ❜

❛ i built this version of me just to survive you. ❜

❛ i’m so tired of pretending i’m okay. ❜

❛ you only notice me when i start falling apart. ❜

❛ i don’t know who i am without all this anger. ❜

❛ i thought if i fixed everything, i’d feel better. i don’t. ❜

❛ why does it still hurt like this? ❜

❛ i gave you everything and it still wasn’t enough. ❜

❛ i don’t want to be this person anymore. ❜

❛ every time i try to move on, something pulls me back. ❜

❛ you said you’d stay. what happened? ❜

❛ i’m not numb. i just don’t know how to feel anymore. ❜

❛ maybe i was the problem all along. ❜

❛ i keep reliving it like i can change something. ❜

❛ i don’t need you now. i needed you then. ❜

❛ i hate who i became just to survive this. ❜

❛ if i let this go, what’s left of me? ❜

❛ i don’t think i can fix this. ❜

❛ you weren’t supposed to see me like this. ❜

❛ i’m holding on, but i don’t know why anymore. ❜

❛ it didn’t matter how hard i tried, did it? ❜

(guitars hum, memories ache, and every chord sounds like a confession.)

𝐎𝐔𝐓𝐑𝐔𝐍𝐍𝐈𝐍𝐆. (when you keep running but the ghosts still follow)

“You can’t keep driving forever. What are you trying not to remember?”

“I heard the tires scream before you did.”

“You say you’re not lost, but your eyes tell a different story.”

“Does running make it easier to breathe—or harder?”

“You keep pretending the road erases the past. It doesn’t.”

“You can leave the city, but your name still echoes here.”

“You look like you’re running from something you used to love.”

“Do you ever stop long enough to miss what you’ve left behind?”

𝐁𝐔𝐑𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒 (ashes don’t lie—only the people who left them do)

“Did it hurt, setting fire to the only proof we existed?”

“You always did look better lit by destruction.”

“How many times do you have to burn something before it stops haunting you?”

“I kept one letter. Just one. It still smells like smoke.”

“You talk about closure like it’s a clean cut. It never was.”

“What did you write before you decided to destroy it?”

“You can’t burn memory, no matter how many times you try.”

“I watched you light the match. I wanted to stop you. I didn’t.”

𝐍𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐌𝐁𝐄𝐑 𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐆 (the month when everything ends and everyone pretends it’s fine)

“You still hum that song when it rains, don’t you?”

“November always makes you quiet. What are you remembering?”

“Do you ever wish we’d said goodbye differently?”

“You never told me why that season hurts so much.”

“The air smells like old promises tonight.”

“You looked at me like the leaves looked at the ground—ready to fall.”

“You said you’d moved on, but you still flinch when it rains.”

“I think we died in autumn; we just didn’t notice till winter.”

𝐆𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐒 𝐎𝐅 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐒𝐊𝐄𝐘 (honesty hits harder when the bottle’s half-empty)

“You talk prettier when you’re half-drunk and half-broken.”

“You always reach for the bottle before the truth.”

“Do you even like the taste, or just the way it makes you forget?”

“The glass slipped. Just like you always do.”

“You said you weren’t like this anymore. I guess you lied.”

“What are you really drinking to forget?”

“You laugh too loudly when it hurts.”

“I know that look—you’re about to say something you’ll regret.”

𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐓𝐋𝐄 𝐂𝐈𝐓𝐘 𝐆𝐇𝐎𝐒𝐓𝐒 (neon lights, sleepless hearts, and the people who never really left)

“This city remembers us even if we pretend we’ve forgotten.”

“You still walk the same streets like they owe you something.”

“I keep seeing you in reflections that aren’t real.”

“Do you ever wonder if the ghosts miss you too?”

“The lights flicker when you talk about the past.”

“Maybe the city’s haunted because of us.”

“Every song that plays here sounds like you.”

“You said you’d left for good—but your shadow didn’t.”

𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐒 (when love hurts but you keep playing anyway)

“You say it’s over, but your heartbeat says otherwise.”

“Why do you keep breaking what you claim to love?”

“I’d rather fight with you than be touched by anyone else.”

“We’re not good for each other, but we make beautiful noise.”

“You always come back when it’s too late.”

“Love shouldn’t sound this much like a plea.”

“You taught me pain can have rhythm.”

“Every time I hear your name, it feels like the first note again.”

𝐀𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐇 (the quiet after the last song ends)

“The silence hurts more than the shouting ever did.”

“I didn’t realize goodbye could echo this loud.”

“You always said endings were just pauses. So why does this one feel final?”

“There’s still dust from you in everything I touch.”

“Do you miss me, or just the noise I made?”

“You can’t rebuild from ashes if you keep standing in the ruins.”

“Tell me this isn’t how you wanted it to end.”

“Maybe love was never meant to survive the encore.”

(whiskey-stained love letters, empty highways, and the kind of heartbreak that hums low in the bones.)

“𝐓𝐄𝐐𝐔𝐈𝐋𝐀” — 𝐃𝐀𝐍 + 𝐒𝐇𝐀𝐘 (when memory burns smoother than the drink)

“I still taste you every time that song comes on.”

“You’d think after all this time, I’d stop calling your name when I’m drunk.”

“They asked if I missed you. I told them I only miss the way you looked at me before you left.”

“It’s funny how tequila can still make me cry over someone who ain’t comin’ back.”

“You haunt the bottom of every glass I pour.”

“𝐓𝐎𝐎 𝐂𝐎𝐎𝐋 𝐓𝐎 𝐂𝐑𝐘” — 𝐋𝐔𝐊𝐄 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐁𝐒 (grief, worn raw and quiet)

“I think I forgot how to cry, so I just keep drinkin’ instead.”

“You ever lose someone who still feels like they’re sittin’ next to you?”

“The world keeps spinning, and I’m still stuck right where you left me.”

“I told everyone I was fine. I lied.”

“𝐓𝐈𝐍 𝐌𝐀𝐍” — 𝐌𝐈𝐑𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐀 𝐋𝐀𝐌𝐁𝐄𝐑𝐓 (heartbreak turned to armor)

“You said I’d get stronger. I just got colder.”

“If I could trade my heart for steel, I would.”

“You ever get tired of pretending you don’t feel nothin’?”

“I used to be soft. You taught me how to survive.”

“You said it was for the best. Guess that makes one of us.”

“𝐁𝐋𝐔𝐄 𝐀𝐈𝐍’𝐓 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐂𝐎𝐋𝐎𝐑” — 𝐊𝐄𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐔𝐑𝐁𝐀𝐍 (seeing the hurt behind someone’s smile)

“You don’t have to fake happy for me.”

“I see it in your eyes—you’ve been hurt before.”

“You deserve better than whoever made you think love should ache.”

“I won’t ask what happened. Just sit with me awhile.”

“You can wear that blue all you want, but it still don’t suit you.”

“𝐒𝐌𝐎𝐊𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐂𝐊 𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓𝐍𝐈𝐍’” — 𝐌𝐎𝐃𝐄𝐑𝐍 𝐂𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒 (love that burns dirty and low)

“You smell like trouble and cheap bourbon—just my type.”

“We keep sayin’ this ain’t good for us. Funny how we keep doin’ it anyway.”

“You can leave if you want, but I’ll still be waitin’ at the bar.”

“We were fire and smoke—never meant to last, but damn we burned pretty.”

“You taste like every mistake I’d make twice.”

“𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐕𝐄 (𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐃𝐀𝐃𝐃𝐘 𝐆𝐄𝐍𝐄)” — 𝐀𝐋𝐀𝐍 𝐉𝐀𝐂𝐊𝐒𝐎𝐍 (memory wrapped in motion)

“Sometimes I drive just to remember.”

“Every road outta town feels like the one we took that summer.”

“It’s strange how ghosts fit in the passenger seat so easily.”

“You ever miss someone you ain’t seen since you were young?”

“I keep your photo in the glove box. Just in case.”

“𝐁𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐔𝐏 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐄𝐀𝐒𝐘 𝐈𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝟗𝟎𝐬” — 𝐒𝐀𝐌 𝐇𝐔𝐍𝐓 (nostalgia and the ache of what used to be simple)

“We used to fight and move on. Now we block each other.”

“You ever wish love was still letters and cassette tapes?”

“You deleted me, but I still hear your voice on every song.”

“Back then, goodbye meant something slower.”

“You can’t unlove someone, no matter how many times you try.”

“𝐂𝐎𝐋𝐃” — 𝐂𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐋𝐘 𝐆𝐎𝐋𝐃𝐄𝐍 (the end that lingers)

“It’s cold in here without you.”

“I still sleep on my side of the bed, even when it’s empty.”

“Everywhere I go, I see something you left behind.”

“You stopped calling—but I still check the phone.”

“I don’t think heartbreak ever really leaves. It just gets quieter.”

“𝐈 𝐃𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐊 𝐀𝐋𝐎𝐍𝐄” — 𝐆𝐄𝐎𝐑𝐆𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐎𝐑𝐎𝐆𝐎𝐎𝐃 (𝐂𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑𝐒) (grit and loneliness, two sides of the same coin)

“Don’t mind me, I’m just drinking to forget your name.”

“It’s easier to miss you when the glass is full.”

“You ever feel lonely even in a crowded bar?”

“The bartender knows our story better than we do.”

“Every drink’s a toast to what we ruined.”

“𝐈𝐅 𝐈 𝐃𝐈𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐆” — 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐁𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐘 (soft tragedy, wrapped in grace)

“I never thought forever would be this short.”

“I just wanted to leave something beautiful behind.”

“You’ll wear black, but I’ll still haunt you in color.”

“Promise me you’ll live louder than I did.”
