VELVET VIOLENCE
Sneak Peak of Velvet Violence to be released July 31, 2026.
This song is my favorite off this entire EP. It is dedicated to my 17 year old self who endured years of abuse through an ex.
These are my vocals, backed by a mixed track I created, to fit the vibe of the song and lyrics.
This entire process has taken me about a year.
These are the lyrics, from my heart and soul:
Your hands were velvet violence
A prayer in black
You kissed me like a promise
Then vanished
Every scar was a love note
Every bruise a lullaby
I swore I'd never chase a ghost
Then you met my eyes
You knew the parts of me
That begged to come undone
I let you wear my heartbeat
Like a loaded gun
Pull me closer
Just enough to make me forget my name
Say you love me
While you dance through the wreckage you made
We're two sinners in silk sheets
Two devils tangled up
I know your love will ruin me
But ruin still looks good on us
Your voice still lives under my skin
Like smoke at midnight
I crave the sound of your goodbye
Even when it leaves me broke
You're the hunger after midnight
The match before the flame
Every time I almost heal
You say my name
If temptation had a heartbeat
It would sound like yours
Every closed door between us
Made me want you more
Pull me closer
Just enough to make me lose the light
Say forever
Like you never meant to stay the night
We're the prayer no saint would keep
The secret nobody could leave
I know your love will bury me
But your darkness still feels beautiful
You're the knife I learned to kiss
The eclipse I couldn't outrun
I mistook your chaos for destiny
Your silence for devotion
You were never safe
I was never innocent
Maybe that's why we burned so bright
Pull me closer
One last time before we disappear
Leave your fingerprints on every memory I fear
We're just echoes in the moonlight
Dancing where the angels died
If loving you was my undoing
I'd still meet you every night
Some loves leave flowers
Some leave scars
Yours left constellations
Across my heart
