11. Rusted Halo
A raw, gritty 90s grunge track with quiet–loud dynamics. Verses feature clean, uneasy guitar tones and mumbled, tense vocals, building into explosive choruses with fuzzy distorted guitars, screamed vocals, and heavy drums. The sound should feel angsty, messy, and unpolished, with feedback, imperfect edges, and a live, garage-like atmosphere. Tempo: 90–110 BPM.

Lyrics
Track 11 of 12 from the upcoming album RAGE
Hypocrisy in broken idols.
Mocking false saviors.
Even halos rust and fall.
##############################
Intro
Verse 1
Plastic wings and holy smoke,
Every promise makes me choke.
Golden lies on crooked thrones,
You preach salvation, break my bones.
Pre-Chorus
The shine you wear is peeling slow,
The truth beneath already shows.
Chorus
Your rusted halo won’t save you now,
It slips, it falls, it hits the ground.
Your rusted halo, cracked and fake,
A crown of rot you can’t escape.
Verse 2
Broken prayers and empty eyes,
Every savior just disguises lies.
You sell the cure but feed the pain,
You wash in fire but still you stain.
Pre-Chorus
The shine you wear is peeling slow,
The truth beneath already shows.
Chorus
Your rusted halo won’t save you now,
It slips, it falls, it hits the ground.
Your rusted halo, cracked and fake,
A crown of rot you can’t escape.
Bridge
Bend the cross, break the chain,
Scrape the rust, taste the shame.
You can’t hide, you can’t pray,
Your halo rots away!
Final Chorus
Your rusted halo won’t save you now,
It slips, it falls, it hits the ground.
Your rusted halo, cracked and fake,
A crown of rot you can’t escape.
Outro
Rusted halo… rusted halo…
