Create darkly whimsical alt-pop lyrics for breathy, close-mic female vocals, evoking Billie Eilish’s hush, Melanie Martinez’s warped nursery-rhyme bite, and Lana Del Rey’s faded melodrama. Tempo sits at 98 BPM, D minor, core instrumentation: warped cassette tape synths, lopsided downtempo beats, distorted glockenspiel, detuned wind-up music box, rumbling sub-bass swells. Narrative follows a 20-something tending to a graveyard of half-finished childhood friendship diaries buried in her overgrown backyard at 1am, flipping through tear-stained pages where old inside jokes feel ghostly. Emotion is soft, bittersweet, quietly seething, eerily intimate, no broad anger—just the quiet, uncanny chill of realizing the people you grew up with are strangers now, their memories sitting like cracked porcelain trinkets on your windowsill.

[Intro]
[Verse]
Digging in the garden bed
Waking up the quiet dead
Paper skin is turning grey
Throw the childhood dreams away
Ink is bleeding through the dirt
Tell me where it started to hurt
[Pre-Chorus]
I found a secret in the weeds
Sown from all the bitter seeds
Now the page is cold and wet
Something I should just forget
[Chorus]
Oh, the ghosts are in the pages
Locked inside their paper cages
We were honey, we were sweet
Now we're shadows on the street
Shattered porcelain on the floor
I don't know you anymore
[Verse]
Crayon hearts and jagged lines
Buried under tangled vines
You promised we would never change
But your face is looking strange
Like a doll with missing eyes
Telling all your pretty lies
[Pre-Chorus]
I found a secret in the weeds
Sown from all the bitter seeds
Now the page is cold and wet
Something I should just forget
[Chorus]
Oh, the ghosts are in the pages
Locked inside their paper cages
We were honey, we were sweet
Now we're shadows on the street
Shattered porcelain on the floor
I don't know you anymore
[Bridge]
Wind the music box up tight
Dancing in the middle of the night
The tape is warped and slow
Where did all the magic go?
Left the shovel by the gate
Guess we found our heavy fate
[Breakdown]
Hush now, don't you scream
It was just a fever dream
Tear the pages, let them fly
Say a quiet, cold goodbye
[Chorus]
Oh, the ghosts are in the pages
Locked inside their paper cages
We were honey, we were sweet
Now we're shadows on the street
Shattered porcelain on the floor
I don't know you anymore
[Outro]
