Love Me Hard
Modern metalcore with electronic elements. Distorted electric guitars play syncopated chugging riffs and melodic lead lines. A five-string bass guitar follows the kick drum patterns with a gritty, overdriven tone. The drum kit features a triggered kick drum, a high-tuned snare, and frequent double-bass pedal work. Synthesizers provide atmospheric pads, glitchy arpeggios, and sub-bass drops. Male vocals alternate between aggressive screams and melodic, clean singing with layered harmonies. The track is in 4/4 time at 175 BPM in the key of C minor.

Lyrics
For a moment I indulge in quiet deliberation
A moment, a reminder, a failure of patience
I must find a future reaching something else
But I'm frozen with restless reservations
How many times have I lost my life
How many times have I moved on
Do I have what it takes to let go
To be worth a chance to really grow
[pre chorus]
I never came up anything but second
Look in these eyes, guide me to the present
And!
Love!
Me!
Hard!
[chorus]
I wanna be able to lay all this pent up hurt to rest
I wanna rip all this negativity out of my chest
My worlds in slow motion and I’m having visions
Scream out my frustrations while the universe listens
Push past the anger pull back the curtain
Please stay here and hold this broken person
Don’t shy from the ghost that inhabits its throne
Please stay here to want this discarded soul
AND LOVE ME HARD!!
And love me hard
[verse 2]
Is my absence a noticed looming, a wistful phantom in your mind
You’re not dead but you’re gone and it feels the same inside
You created something ugly, something scary, something crude
An awful version of me to be despised then drug away and subdued
I was blind and thrown aside before I knew I'd lost my mind
A blazing crash a death throw cast a puncture wound a bloody gash
Sobbing and raging duplicitous faking our forever now is changing
Shocked and rocked to my very core How do I trust how do I live this life once more
[pre chorus]
I never came up anything but second
Look in these eyes, guide me to the present
And!
Love!
Me!
Hard!
[chorus]
I wanna be able to lay all this pent up hurt to rest
I wanna rip all this negativity out of my chest
My worlds in slow motion and I’m having visions
Scream out my frustrations while the universe listens
Push past the anger pull back the curtain
Please stay here and hold this broken person
Don’t shy from the ghost that inhabits its throne
Please stay here to want this discarded soul
AND LOVE ME HARD!!
And love me hard
[bridge]
Crass and crowded contemplation with self-loathing rumination
Substances ruin restless brooding never losing this unhealthy obsessation
Is your essence loyal and serene is it soothing and pristine
Are you here to show how elevating devotion should be
Or am I shouting into the void huddled chilled completely numbed
An outcast shunned nowhere to run hopes dashed aside and faith succumbed
I can't suffer more devastation or self-inflicted mutilation
Stop this damning desolation be my saving angel and salvation
AND LOVE ME HARD!
[outro]
Put my hurt to rest
Restart the beating in my chest
LOVE ME HARD!
Pull back the curtain
Want this shattered person
AND LOVE ME HAAARD!
AND LOVE ME HAAARD!!
