Inspiration: Facing relationship strains

----------------
LYRICS:

Empty coffee cups on different sides of the bed
Sunrise paints your window, my night hasn't even bled
We built our world on laughter, now a void fills the air
Cracks in the foundation, a love beyond repair

We used to talk for hours, now the silence screams so loud
This hollow coexistence hangs like a thundercloud

We live in a house divided, hearts are on the mend
This fractured foundation won't hold till the end
We're living like strangers, adrift in the same space
Is this what forever looks like? Is this all we can embrace

You scroll through social feeds, while I chase fading dreams
Weekends spent in silence, lost in separate streams
Remember when we'd laugh, when our touches would ignite
Now our gazes barely meet, lost in the fading light

We used to talk for hours, now silence screams so loud
This hollow coexistence hangs like a thundercloud

We live in a house divided, hearts are on the mend
This fractured foundation won't hold till the end
We're living like strangers, adrift in the same space
Is this what forever looks like? Is this all we can embrace

Maybe if we tear it down, we can rebuild anew
Start over, stronger, with a love that's more than true
But for now the walls are crumbling, the cracks run far too deep
Are we past the point of saving? Are we destined not to keep

We live in a house divided, hearts are on the mend
This fractured foundation won't hold till the end
We're living like strangers, adrift in the same space
Is this what forever looks like? Is this all we can embrace

Act of Corrosion - 05 - A House Divided

True Love Is Crossed

Album track from 'DIVE!' (out 5 June), written and sung by bassist Allan Wiseman, featuring lead guitar by christopher rye (who also produced the song). Band trivia: christopher added (and sang) the line "but not for me!" as his response to hearing the title was "NO IT ISN'T!" Unusually, the gorgeous sounding lead guitar was recorded using a Chapman ML3 instead of christopher's Strat.

DIVE!

Forgiving is Easy

Love’s A Loaded Gun (And I Pulled The Trigger)

Drive Me Out of Here is a cinematic escape song built on dark asphalt and neon reflections.
It’s about two people who don’t need a plan—just a car, the open road, and a moment of courage.
Somewhere between fear and freedom, this track captures the thrill of leaving without looking back.
A pulsing beat, a flicker of danger, and the question: What if we never stop?



Drive Me Out of Here ist ein Song wie ein nächtlicher Roadtrip – voller Regen, Neonlichter und einer Ahnung von Freiheit.
Zwei Menschen fliehen nicht voreinander, sondern gemeinsam vor dem Stillstand.
Kein Plan, nur der Tank ist voll – und der Mut, einfach loszufahren.
Ein Song über die Kraft des Moments, das Nichtwissen – und das Glück, alles hinter sich zu lassen.

Drive Me Out of Here

I'm Still Yours

DE: Der Song erzählt die Geschichte einer Frau, die trotz einer traumatischen Kindheit, die sie hart und kalt gemacht hat, ihre innere Stärke findet und sich aus der Dunkelheit ins Licht kämpft.

EN: The song tells the story of a woman who, despite a traumatic childhood that left her hard and cold, finds her inner strength and fights her way out of the darkness and into the light.

Lost Girl

Invisible (Chinese Version)

Velvet Petals ignite with "Rise," an immensely powerful and uplifting arena rock anthem. Driven by soaring vocals, epic guitar riffs, and a chorus that commands you to "feel the soul of the universe," this track is a journey of breaking through darkness and becoming everything. "Rise" is an inspirational call to overcome, let the heavens sing, and find transformation through endless motion. #VelvetPetals #Rise #ArenaRock #AnthemicRock #SoulOfTheUniverse #UpliftingMusic #EpicRock

Rise

There are times you don't know what to do, go out and drink is not the solution, just go home and talk it out.

Drive Me Out of Here
