i finally finished writing this hadesgame song that i abandoned in 2020!! idk if this song is considered punk but the chorus melody IS blatantly lifted from "my own worst enemy" by lit

Lyrics

i spend the hours keeping watch
over my lord’s domain
it’s been millennia
and barely anything has changed
but now my childhood friend
is trying to escape
his father turns to me
and tells me to my face

“this wretched son of mine
i’m sure he’ll turn out fine
he goes when duty calls”
but when the blackout curtains fall
i hear him screaming through the wall

did you lock the door behind you?
did your family ever find you?
and if you ever make it out, let me remind you
you belong with us, you do
there's a special place in hell for you

i spend the hours herding souls
out of my lord’s domain
my childhood friend is running through
one day i end up in his way
i ask him why he left without saying goodbye
he smiles at me through his confident reply

“i cannot be confined
to this wretched land of mine”
spoken in a lazy drawl
but when the blackout curtains fall
i hear him screaming through the wall
