Write alternative rock lyrics for raw, dynamic female vocals, in the unflinching vein of Hayley Williams, Alanis Morissette, and Patti Smith. Set to 122 BPM, D minor, with core instrumentation: fuzzed distorted rhythm guitar, gritty driving bass, punchy thunderous drums, sudden viola swells, vocals shifting from breathy close whispers in verses to guttural, unfiltered screaming in cathartic choruses. Narrative centers on finding a box of old ex-partner’s leftover things in a forgotten attic corner, unpacking years of unspoken gaslighting and erased self-worth, moving from tight, held-back quiet resentment to blazing, unapologetic fury as you set the whole box alight in the backyard, smoke curling into cold dusk. Tone is turbulent, redemptively raw, like lightning splitting open heavy summer storm clouds.

[Intro]
[Verse]
Cardboard teeth and silver tape
Hiding in the crawlspace shape
Dust is thick like heavy wool
One more box for me to pull
Found your ghost in a corner dark
Waiting for a tiny spark
[Pre-Chorus]
You said my memory was broken glass
Told me every lie would surely pass
I swallowed every bitter pill you made
Living in your suffocating shade
[Chorus]
I AM NOT THE GHOST YOU MADE
WATCH THE DEBT BE FINALLY PAID
BURN THE BOX AND BURN THE NAME
I AM OXYGEN, NOT THE FLAME
EVERY WORD YOU STOLE IS MINE
CROSSING EVERY COLD RED LINE
[Post-Chorus]
Let it blacken, let it curl
I am a brand new kind of girl
Smoke is rising to the stars
Healing all the jagged scars
[Verse]
Polaroids of a face I hate
Checking on the expiration date
"You're just crazy," "You're too much"
Rotting everything you touch
Found the journal with the missing sheets
Where you scrubbed the record of your cheats
[Pre-Chorus]
Shadows dancing on the attic floor
I don't need your mercy anymore
Every dollar of my worth you spent
Now I'm taking back the life you lent
[Chorus]
I AM NOT THE GHOST YOU MADE
WATCH THE DEBT BE FINALLY PAID
BURN THE BOX AND BURN THE NAME
I AM OXYGEN, NOT THE FLAME
EVERY WORD YOU STOLE IS MINE
CROSSING EVERY COLD RED LINE
[Bridge]
Drag it down the narrow stairs
Past the ghosts and unsaid prayers
Backyard grass is turning blue
Dusk is coming for the truth
One match strikes a jagged light
Splitting open the dead of night
[Solo]
[Chorus]
I AM NOT THE GHOST YOU MADE
WATCH THE DEBT BE FINALLY PAID
BURN THE BOX AND BURN THE NAME
I AM OXYGEN, NOT THE FLAME
EVERY WORD YOU STOLE IS MINE
CROSSING EVERY COLD RED LINE
[Post-Chorus]
Let it blacken, let it curl
I am a brand new kind of girl
Smoke is rising to the stars
Healing all the jagged scars
[Breakdown]
Ash in the wind
Where do I begin?
Ash in the air
I no longer care
[Outro]
