Seven Year Itch

Lyrics Title: SEVEN YEAR ITCH (Nu-Metal / Industrial Breakdown Style) [Intro – distorted voicemail tone, low whisper] Year one — “I’d die for you.” Year three — “Where were you?” Year seven — silence. [Verse 1] Started like a movie scene Cheap perfume and dopamine Now the kitchen light flickers on And we don’t even speak when morning comes Same couch Same fight Same dead look every night We built a prison outta routines Now we sleep back-to-back like enemies [Pre-Chorus] Love decays in slow motion No explosion Just corrosion [Chorus – huge screaming hook] EVERY YEAR WE FADE AWAY ANOTHER PIECE OF US GOES GRAY YOU SAID “FOREVER” — WHAT A JOKE NOW EVERY WORD FEELS LIKE A CHOKE SEVEN YEARS SEVEN SCARS TWO DEAD HEARTS IN A TWO-CAR GARAGE WE DON’T LEAVE WE DON’T STAY JUST ROT TOGETHER DAY BY DAY [Verse 2 – rhythmic/aggressive] Matching rings, matching lies Matching emptiness behind our eyes We don’t touch unless it’s war Slamming doors through hollow halls Remember when your voice felt safe? Now every sentence tastes like hate Everybody says “relationships take work” Yeah — so does digging graves in dirt [Bridge – half-time breakdown] Year ten Who even are you? Year fifteen I forgot who I was too One sink Two ghosts One house No pulse [Breakdown – screamed] LOVE IS A CONTRACT SIGNED IN STATIC HEARTS GO NUMB IT’S AUTOMATIC WE DON’T BREAK WE JUST BEND UNTIL THERE’S NOTHING LEFT TO END [Final Chorus – bigger, desperate] EVERY YEAR WE FADE AWAY WATCH THE COLORS SEPARATE NO BIG FIRE NO DRAMATIC END JUST strangers pretending to pretend SEVEN YEARS SEVEN SCARS COUNTING MILEAGE ON BROKEN HEARTS WE DON’T LEAVE WE DON’T CHANGE JUST LIVE INSIDE THE DECAY [Outro – quiet spoken over ambient noise] Some relationships don’t die. They just stop breathing. #numetalvibes #AIMetal #aimusic #altrock #lyricvideo © 2026 ​⁠ @HEADNOISEMUSIC Original content created by me, with AI assistance. All rights reserved.
