Velvet Chaos Orchestra
Sleek alt-pop/rock, male vocals. Verses ride on smoky Rhodes, subtle bass, and tight rimshot groove; pre-chorus brings tremolo guitars and rising synth pads. Choruses explode with distorted power chords, stacked gang vocals, and huge, punchy drums. Bridge strips to voice and distant piano before a final, over-the-top last hook and a hard stop., soft, smooth, loud

Lyrics
Verse 1
Lipstick stain on crystal glass
Calm as Sunday after mass
You laugh in slow motion
While the room comes unfastened
Perfume
Gasoline and grace
Halo tilted out of place
Every smile a siren
Every word a matchstick
Pre-Chorus
Are we blessed or are we bored?
You’re a prayer I can’t afford
Pull me closer to the edge
Say it soft against my neck
Chorus
Soft as sin
Loud as war
You’re the quiet I adore
‘Til you’re screaming through my bones
Like you’re kicking in the door
Soft as sin
Loud as war
Every kiss a crashing storm
I keep coming back for more
Soft as sin
Loud as war
Verse 2
Silk dress caught on broken chair
You shrug
Leave it hanging there
Turn this wreck of a hotel
To a bloom in the damage
You say
“Love is just a game”
Shuffle hearts like cards and names
Cheating fate with a grin
Dealing fire to the fragile
Pre-Chorus
Holy chaos
Holy crime
Turn my pulse into a chime
On your tongue my better half
On your floor my epitaph
Chorus
Soft as sin
Loud as war
You’re the quiet I adore
‘Til you’re screaming through my bones
Like you’re kicking in the door
Soft as sin
Loud as war
Every kiss a crashing storm
I keep coming back for more
Soft as sin
Loud as war
Bridge
You say hush
But your hands confess
Every truth my mouth resists (oh)
In the eye of all this mess
I’m at peace inside your risk
Chorus
Soft as sin
Loud as war
You’re the quiet I adore
‘Til you’re screaming through my bones
Like you’re kicking in the door
Soft as sin
Loud as war
Every kiss a crashing storm
I keep dying
Asking more
Soft as sin
Loud as war
