This one’s built for minimalist production at first—soft bass, ambient guitar reverb, layered vocal distortion—then punching up into a powerful chorus.

[Verse 1]
You walk in dressed like redemption
Lips full of false intention
I saw the hunger in your grin
Like validation wrapped in skin
You said you’re just looking for love
But you take more than you rise above
[Verse 2]
You never needed names or rules
Just bodies lined up as your tools
You chased the rush, ignored the tone
Left every heart to rot alone
I watched you drown in skin and thrill
But deep down, you felt nothing still
[Chorus]
Velvet trap—you dress it sweet
But it’s another game you won’t repeat
Soft touch, hard hit
Every kiss leaves a split Velvet trap—
I saw you break
One more soul for pleasure’s sake
You say it’s love, you say it’s pain
But it’s just silence after stain
[Verse 3]
You left the sheets like crime scenes cold
No stories told, no hands to hold
You craved the spark, not the fire
Built your love on brief desire
I tried to save what wasn’t mine
But you were gone before the line
[Bridge]
They see the charm,
I see the cost
How many nights have you got lost?
You taste regret but never cry
Just dress it up and call it high
You never ask, you never plead
You’re addicted to the need
[Final Chorus]
Velvet trap—you bend, not break
Stealing warmth with every fake
Quick hands, long lies
Empty moans and quiet ties
Velvet trap—you hollow hearts
Call it art while you depart
You’ll never fall, you never stay
But I still watched you walk away
[Outro]
And I still clean up what you left
A love that never caught its breath
Velvet trap, you don’t regret
Just haunt the ones you won’t forget
