DROWNED SINS // VENOMTHRONE REMIX
Dark Cinematic Trap Metal / Emotional Alternative Rap Metal with piano and mourning violin leads. Tempo ~78–85 BPM with massive half-time impacts and emotionally crushing atmosphere. Start intimate and fragile: close-mic male vocals, trembling breath, exhausted delivery over soft piano chords, distant reverb guitars, subtle vinyl/static ambience, and sorrowful solo violin phrases. Gradually evolve into full Venomthrone energy with layered screams, distorted low harmonies, industrial textures, sub-heavy 808s, metallic impacts, and wide down-tuned guitars. Verses feel confessional and human, focused on addiction, relapse, shame, and spiritual exhaustion. Chorus remains melodic and haunting with emotional gang harmonies. Add silence cuts before impacts, heartbeat kick transitions, whisper-to-scream vocal flips, and cinematic string swells. Bridge features emotional violin/guitar duet solo building into explosive final chorus with sustained fry screams layered beneath clean vocals.

Lyrics
INTRO – soft piano / distant rain / violin ambience
I told myself tonight was the last night.
(MALE – restrained, emotional)
There’s whiskey stains inside the sink again
Hands shaking trying to hide it from my kids again
Sunlight through the blinds feels violent
(Violin rises beneath final line)
⸻
PRE-CHORUS – tension build
(MALE – cracked clean vocals)
Every “never again”
Turns into one more sip
And every road outta this hell
Leads right back to it.
⸻
CHORUS – ORIGINAL
(MALE – melodic / emotional)
I drink my demons
taking a breath stroke in my lungs
Can’t drown them, they know how to swim.
God, forgive me, wash me of my sins.
For I have sinned again! for the thousandth time
I drink my demons, trying to swallow them.
They come back, back again! time and time again.
God, forgive me, cleanse me!
Hit me with the holy trinity!
god forgive me.
For I have sinned (for I have sinned)
⸻
VERSE 2 – heavier drums / violin accents
(MALE – tighter cadence)
My friends all say I need help
But I don’t know who the hell I am sober
Every day feels like a fist fight
Between getting clean or folding over.
I can hear my daughter laughing
In the next room while I poison myself
Trying not to become the reason
They grow up blaming themselves.
I ain’t scared of dying anymore
I’m scared they’ll remember me like this
A ghost inside the living room
With alcohol burning on his breath.
I tried praying at the chapel doors
But guilt followed me through the entrance
Now I sit awake at four AM
Trying to bargain with my reflection.
(Scream layered low)
I DON’T WANNA LIVE LIKE THIS.
⸻
VIOLIN / GUITAR SOLO – cinematic rise
(Isolated sorrowful violin melody)
(Clean guitar answers softly)
(Gradual distorted guitar swell)
(Heartbeat kick + deep toms enter)
(Half-time slam)
⸻
BRIDGE – stripped piano / rainfall
(MALE – barely holding together)
If I wake up clean tomorrow
Will the damage disappear?
Will my family see a father
Instead of somebody drowning here?
I know Heaven hears me somewhere
Even if I can’t hear it back
So I’m screaming through the silence
Trying not to fade to black.
(Whisper)
Please…
don’t let this be the thing that kills me.
⸻
FINAL CHORUS – VENOMTHRONE ASCENSION
(Full guitars / layered screams / soaring violin)
(MALE – emotional clean + layered fry screams)
I DRINK MY DEMONS
taking a breath stroke in my lungs
CAN’T FUCKING DROWN THEM
THEY LEARNED EXACTLY HOW TO SWIM!
God forgive me!
Wash me of my sins!
FOR THE THOUSANDTH FUCKING TIME
I RELAPSE AGAIN!
I drink my demons
trying to swallow them whole
THEY COME BACK SCREAMING
EVERY TIME THEY TAKE CONTROL!
God forgive me!
Cleanse me!
HIT ME WITH THE HOLY TRINITY!
(Fry scream layered underneath)
FOR I HAVE SINNED!
FOR I HAVE SINNED!
FOR I HAVE SINNED AGAIN!
⸻
OUTRO – piano / rainfall / fading violin
(MALE – weak, fading)
Rain against the window…
Bottle beside the bed…
Trying to remember
who I was before this.
(pause)
God…
If you still hear me…
please don’t give up on me yet.
