Dark pop-rock with mid-tempo driving drums, pulsing bass, and tense minor-key guitar figures; verse stays lean and story-forward, pre-chorus opens with rising stacked harmonies, chorus lands on a short chantable hook with gang doubles. Bridge drops to hushed voice and low toms, then final chorus hits wider with distorted hooks, reverse swells, and delay throws on key names. Bright-edged, cinematic mix with a gritty center.
