    Style
    Emotional, raw 1990s alternative rock with female lead vocals, Gritty electric guitars, dynamic drums, and a live, organic band sound, Vocals are powerful and expressive, moving from soft vulnerability to intense, cathartic outbursts, The mood blends angst, defiance, and emotional honesty, Lyrical style is confessional and poetic, with themes of betrayal, identity, and inner strength, Slight grunge edge with a strong melodic core, No heavy distortion or metal — keep it raw, not overproduced, Heavy distortion, metal

But I don’t know how to not send you my heart, Even when it disappears. Final Chorus You gave me a day-late like, And I know what that really means. You saw me reaching out in my language, And you left me on read in between. I gave you a song tonight, And I’ll probably give you one more. ’Cause I don’t know how to stop loving you, The only way I know how to lov
