[Intro]

(Distorted guitar feedback screams into a frantic, jazzy bass line)

[Verse 1]

Midnight rain tastes like rusted pennies

You’re a secret tucked in a leaden coat

The Soviet wind whispers through your collar

A ticking clock hidden in your throat

[Verse 2]

We danced on the ruins of a schoolyard

Splashing through puddles of neon ink

You promised me a world without masters

Then pushed my head over the kitchen sink

[Chorus]

Oh, pull the pin and let the garden bloom

Carnage painted in a velvet room

A firework soul in a cage of bone

Better to shatter than to die alone

Yeah, pull the pin and watch the sky go red

The prettiest words are the ones unsaid

[Verse 3]

Coffee breath and the scent of gunpowder

A cafe date with a guillotine grin

You’re the storm and the shelter together

A heavy price for a hollowed-out sin

[Bridge]

[High-pitched synthesizer solo mimics a manic laugh]

One spark, two sparks, count the teeth

The beast is breathing underneath!

Don't look back, the fuse is short

Life is just a blood-stained sport!

[Chorus]

Pull the pin and let the garden bloom

Carnage painted in a velvet room

A firework soul in a cage of bone

Better to shatter than to die alone

Yeah, pull the pin and watch the sky go red

The prettiest words are the ones unsaid

[Outro]

(Sudden silence, followed by a soft acoustic strum)

Just a girl in a wet summer dress...

Boom.

[End]
