Empty Sweetness

Verse 1

The craving cuts like whispered lies

A hollow ache beneath my eyes

Your ghost is sugar, sharp and bright

You burn my veins, you stole my nights

Pre-Chorus

The glow was fleeting

The rush deceiving

Now I'm left bleeding

My body’s screaming

Chorus

Sweetness fades, it's hollow, gone

The weight of silence lingers on

No more rush, no more disguise

Just empty sweetness in my mind

Verse 2

Your glittered charm, it owned my breath

Promised joy, but tasted death

Every moment, a poisoned kiss

Every high leads down to this

Pre-Chorus

The glow was fleeting

The rush deceiving

Now I'm left bleeding

My body’s screaming

Chorus

Sweetness fades, it's hollow, gone

The weight of silence lingers on

No more rush, no more disguise

Just empty sweetness in my mind

Bridge

(Spoken or whispered, over a dark instrumental build-up)

"I thought I needed you

I let you in

But you cracked my ribs

And filled them with dust

Now I'm breaking free—

From you, from me."

Instrumental Break

(A driving bassline with a staccato guitar riff, layered synths swelling, building tension.)

Final Chorus

Sweetness fades, it's hollow, gone

The weight of silence lingers on

No more rush, no more disguise

Just empty sweetness in my mind

Outro

(Softly, over sparse piano and reverb-drenched guitar)

Empty sweetness...

Empty sweetness...

It never was real
