Cigarettes In The Rain
Djent, rock, cinematic
Lyrics
Intro - slow blues bends over clean guitar
(...)
Verse
you left your lighter on my windowsill
like you knew I’d keep trying to make it burn
strike / fail / strike / fail
every flick just learning
how much a hand can shake before it breaks
Hook - smooth belt over djent pulse
I loved you like a spine already cracked
kept bending back just to hold your weight
you were the current in my shadowed veins
I was the roof that caved in to the rain
(...)
Verse 1 - blues sway, ghost notes on snare
the sink still hums from that last fight
wine bled dark into the kitchen light
I talk to the walls, they talk back slow
wearing your drawl like an old black coat
Hook - same melody, more grit
I loved you like a spine already cracked
kept bending back just to hold your weight
you were the current in my shadowed veins
I was the roof that caved in to the rain
Bridge - half-time djent, drawled and then belted
you called love a house with the doors all chained
but I found the cellar when the floorboards gave
had to bleed out just to see the sky
had to lose your ghost to learn how to rise
(...)
Spiral return - hook fragments looping / slide guitar wails
I was the roof that caved in to the rain
to the rain (to the rain)
to the rain (to the rain)
I loved you (I loved you)
I loved you (I loved you)
like a spine already cracked
(...)
Outro - slow blues bends, low vocal fade
you left your lighter on my windowsill
like you knew I’d keep trying to make it burn
strike / fail / strike / fail
every flick just learning
how much a hand can shake before it breaks
