Verse 1
(Delivery: intimate, quiet — soft hi-hats, deep sub-bass)
The city lights are neon scars tonight
Reflecting off the tear I tried to hide.
I walk these floors, tracing steps you left behind,
Searching for a piece of my own peace of mind.
It's 3 AM, and the shadows are your name,
Whispering sweet nothings, fanning the flame.
I know the risk, the damage you can do,
But every dose of poison leads me back to you.
Pre-Chorus
(Delivery: building; subtle rising synth/filter sweep)
Did you love me?
Am I crazy?
For you, for you...
Did you need me?
Am I crazy?
For you...
Chorus I — Opening (Full drop)
(Delivery: powerful, full-voice. Production: full 808, aggressive percussion; doubled lead w/ light vocoder)
Watch me turn into a monster
For ya-aa-aa (stuttered vocoder: For—for—for—ya-aa — tempo-synced 16th repeats, decaying amplitude, slight pitch drop on final repeat)
Watch me...
For ya-aa-aa (pan L/R on repeats, gated delay)
Watch me turn into a monster
For ya-aa-aa...
(Performance cue: automate lowpass open across line; keep glitch front-and-center; subtle pitch modulation)
Verse 2
(Delivery: cooler, detached; sub-bass + snappy percussion)
I used to hate the darkness, now I call it home,
'Cause that's the only place I feel I'm not alone.
You taught me how to break before I bend,
A wicked kind of lesson that will never end.
I see the look in your eyes — it tells the truth,
That you enjoy the shattering of my youth.
This obsession's got its teeth sunk deep in me,
And the sweet pain is the only remedy.
Pre-Chorus
Did you love me?
Am I crazy?
For you, for you...
Did you need me?
Am I crazy?
For you...
Chorus II — Escalation
(Delivery: layered harmonies, distorted synths; glitch more aggressive)
Watch me turn into a monster
For ya — fo-ɹa-ɹa — FOR — YAA (granular/pitch-ladder shimmer: formant shift up on each repeat; slide pitch up into guitar solo)
Watch me...
For ya — fo-ɹa-ɹa — FOR — YAA
Watch me turn into a monster
For ya — FO—YAA...
(Production cue: increase bitcrush, push distortion, add granular texture; tempo-sync stutter/gate to drums; vocoder on doubled lead; automate pitch-lift into next break)
Bridge (Introspective Rap Verse)
(Delivery: smooth, low-energy, reflective — drums pulled back; echoing pads)
See, the damage is done, I don't recognize my face in the glass,
A shadow of the self I left back in the past.
It's a cruel kind of worship, this toxic communion,
Trading freedom for the depth of your illusion.
Now the wiring is frayed and the heart keeps getting colder,
Gotta change myself to give you something more...
Something darker, something you can't throw away.
[Korean Verse]
(Delivery: whispered, low in the mix with sub-bass swell; lift last line into an ad-lib pitch-up)
네온 불빛이 상처처럼 밤을 긋어 (Neon lights scrape the night like wounds)
스쳐던 눈물 위에 떨림을 들려 (Light trembles over the hidden tear)
발자국을 따라 네 그림자에 걸려 (Tracing steps, I get caught in your shadow)
새벽 세 시, 네 이름이 또 불러
