I Met Death Once NerdButter (Final Cut)

[Intro] [detuned piano melody, atmospheric synth pads] Yeah Roll initiative Lights low, mind at the glow, mind at the glow, mind at the glow Yeah [Verse 1] [trap drums enter, 808 bass] I was the tall kid in the back of the class Hands always cold, oh, never part of the pack Last name on the sign of the funeral home, yeah Room in the mill carved it in stone, yeah Mom embalming, dad in a suit Kids where I slept in a coffin too Reading manual, spellbooks, dice Learned necromancy before social advice Didn't help I was pale, didn't help I was quiet Didn't help I preferred worlds where dragons riot While they played ball, I rolled stats, yeah Strength low, wisdom max [Chorus] [layered melodic vocals] Creepy kid, yeah, I heard it all Future written on a marble wall They laughed, I stayed undead calm Guess who runs the place when the bodies fall [Verse 2] [piano continues, driving percussion] Fast forward, degree on the wall Mortuary sciences, top of the class, no applause Family trade, keys to the door Same building, different decade, same floor Still tall, still weird, still online late Raiding dungeons with strangers who can relate Discord lit, party of five Tank, healer, DPS, barely alive Then I heard a chair scrape past the prep room line From the side of the house that ain't mine Security cams blink once, twice Curiosity beat common sense, roll the dice Downstairs, table candles burn low Guest from upstairs I already know Transparent smile, unfinished goodbyes And at the head of the table, infinite eyes Black cloak, casual, bone-white grin Mid-speech like, \"Alright, so again\" Sees me standing, hand on the door Five-minute break, ghost gone no more [Bridge] [percussion thins out, melodic synth] Heart in my throat, rain of light He says, \"Relax, you're fine\" I said, \"Am I dead?\" He said, \"Nah, my bad\" A clerical error happens sometimes Pulled a shape from nowhere, bent space-time Rolling papers, lighter, green so loud \"Personal strain, don't share it around\" [Verse 3] [full beat returns] We smoked by the slab where the silence lives, huh He talked about endings and what comes after it Not fire, not clouds, not reward or blame Just transitions, wait, wait, remembering names Said, \"Loneliness echoes, love leaves marks\" Said, \"Death ain't cruel, just terrible with sparks\" I nodded like this was normal shit While reality quietly uninstalled itself He said, \"This'll fade when the high wears off You're not meant to know this stuff\" Told me keep doing what I do best Hold the line between gone and left [Chorus] [melodic vocals, atmospheric pads] Woke up, sunlight through the blinds Ashtray full, missing time Dream felt heavy, hard to place Like forgetting a face [Outro] [piano fades, light percussion] Check the cams like every day Saw death spark up, saw myself say \"Holy shit, in high-def truth\" Deleted the file, what else you do? Nobody wants the facts I've got Nobody asks questions like that on the spot World spins, better not knowing why Some doors stay closed even if you're the guy, yeah Creepy kid still here, still me Caretaker of what you don't want to see Roll the dice, close the door gently Every goodbye gets handled professionally Still gaming at night, still talk to the dead Still lonely sometimes, yeah, he said that's human If death shows up again, we'll share a seat Until then, I grind XP and keep the peace [piano melody ends]
