The prompt is Terror

#SheWantsRevenge “Tear You Apart” from their eponymous debut, 2006

Lyric:
Late night in passing mentioned it flipped
To her best friend, it's nothing, maybe it slipped
But the slip turns to terror, and a crush to like
Then she walked in, he froze up, believe it's the fright

First, how great is this band name? I always love a band name that forms a complete clause, but this one is a DECLARATION.

The song’s title only amps things up. Tear You Apart? Maybe this Is the guy that made her want revenge. But this isn’t really about violence; it’s about #OBSESSION. And rather than some type of metal or hardcore as the title suggests, the sound here is sinister, sneaking in on a mechanized beat, insistent, unrelenting, building tension, then BAM! cut short at the abrupt ending, never released - to embody frustration, or to make it even more potent, leaving the crescendo to the listener's imagination? You decide.

The Narcissist's Guide to ✌🏾"Getting the Narrative Under Control.:✌🏾

1. People do something that pisses you off.
2. Stalk and harass them.
3. Create a scene in public that is witnessed by five, 10, 20 other people who ask, "What the fuck?"
4. Those people hear the story and then tell you to GTFOH.
5. Add those people to your list of people to stalk and harass.

Repeat steps 2 through 5 ad infinitum.
