Liner Notes

Disclaimer: this song is not a reflection of how I genuinely feel about love, but it was a lot of fun to write. Great prompt!

Lyrics

Violets are blue Roses are red Hate wins again Lovers are dead

Can't get your fucking face Out of my head Roses are blue Violets are red

Don't send me flowers No breakfast in bed What's in the box Hope it's your head

Great piano sound. Fab vocal delivery. Good color switch in the middle. "What's in the box / Hope it's your head" -- THAT'S how you end a song.

Pointed, pithy, and perfect for an anti valentine song! Your dagger is sharp and spot-on with a sinister sounding vocal delivery.

Awesome to hear this goth death metal dark power 5ths type background....could imagine some distortion effects. It's like Halloween made an appearance.

This was so much fun to listen to while I mopped the floor. It made me think of a song I listened to in college. I think it was by the Velvet Underground, about someone who mailed himself to a lover or potential lover or ex or something. He was stabbed to death when she opened the box with a knife. This seems like it could be an answer song to that one.
