Dark Humor
I also came up with some new lyrics, so I’m going to create a song out of them. This time, I didn’t have any specific explanations, so I tried to create lyrics with a dark humorous feel. The story is about how for some reason players keep going all-in, and the dealer is like, “A raise? What’s that?”, which makes the main character feel insane. The protagonist has a dark past and his trauma is triggered, but in the end he becomes desperate and goes all in, asserting something like, “I’m here.” The lyrics flow so that the outro ends with a silly punchline. The completed lyrics are as follows:
🎵 Alienation🎵
[Verse 1]
Something feels off — do they even know the rules?
Why is everyone always shoving all-in?
[Verse 2]
Reckless bets fly like sparks in the dark
Is this just a gathering of addicts?
“Poker is all about guts?”
That’s not the game I know.
[Pre-Chorus]
I raise — and get those puzzled stares
Even the dealer asks, “All-in, is that okay instead?”
[Chorus]
Fine, I get it — I’ll go all-in too
I don’t hate gambling, not gonna run or hide
Let’s play your game.
[Verse 3]
Somehow I win — luck on my side
Mountains of chips piling up before me
Everyone going all-in?
This is madness.
[Verse 4]
Feels like I’m the only one
Left outside this strange world
Flashes of my lonely youth
Come rushing back again
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s like I don’t even exist
They act like I’m not there
Days of never fitting in
I swore I’d never feel that way again
[Chorus]
Still, the shoves keep coming
Everyone plays like it’s normal
Am I the only one who sees the insanity?
[Finale Chorus]
No more hesitation — I’m all-in now
Watch my gamble unfold
I’m here — for real, I exist
[Outro – Spoken, Female Voice Announcement]

Music Style
As always, I asked ChatGPT about the musical style and instrumentation that would go well with the lyrics. He usually gives multiple musical compositions, but this time he just decided on this one. ChatGPT felt that this song was dark rock ballad, so Radiohead was the obvious choice. He even mentioned specific song titles and said that a melody like Exit Music would fit the image. Ah, that one… I want to say, but it seems I don’t know it… Well, I’m a total music novice, so it can’t be helped…
So I looked into what kind of song it was. It turns out it’s the theme song for the movie “Romeo + Juliet” (based on Shakespeare’s play, but apparently it’s a story about a mafia war), and it’s the fourth track on the album “OK Computer.” By the way, this album includes a song called “Paranoid Android,” and the guitar riff in this song is similar to the guitar riff in Mr. Children’s “Nishihe Higashihe,” which is apparently why Mr. Children is said to have been influenced by Radiohead. It’s a central song on one of Radiohead’s most popular albums, so it’s probably one of their signature songs.
From what I heard, it has a dark melody that perfectly fits the description of dark rock ballad, with the first half being sung with just an acoustic guitar, and gradually building up to a rock-like climax towards the second half. I had a general idea of what I wanted to create, and I figured Suno AI would do a good job, so I started generating a song right away.
Finished Song
Among the songs generated, the first half is dark and the second half gets more exciting, and the following songs are similar.

The melody has a grand feel, and I thought the way the pre-chorus notes rise in pitch was good. Hehe, maybe it’s interesting that he doesn’t even realize there’s a silly punchline.
Screamo Version
I generated a song that sounded like it, but I still felt like the dark melody was lacking. I wanted to turn the doubt, madness, loneliness, and ego explosion leading up to the climax into screamo, and give it a slightly faster tempo. So I asked ChatGPT to generate the screamo version lyrics for the song. The resulting lyrics are as follows:
🎤 Alienation (Screamo Version)
Lyrics Rewritten for Screamo / Post-Hardcore Style
🎵 [Verse 1 – Whispered / Clean]
Something’s wrong…
Do they even know how to play?
Why’s everyone all-in — every damn hand?
🎵 [Verse 2 – Building]
Bets fly reckless, like they’ve lost control
Addicts in denial?
They say “Poker is about guts!”
No… this isn’t the game I love.
⚡ [Pre-Chorus – Screamed]
I raise…
And all I get are empty stares
Even the dealer —
“All-in instead…?”
Like I spoke a foreign tongue!
🔥 [Chorus – Full Screamo]
FINE! YOU WANT ALL-IN?!
I’ll give you chaos —
I’m not afraid of fire
I’ll play this game of madness —
AND I’LL BURN WITH IT!
🎵 [Verse 3 – Clean + Cracks]
By chance… I win
Mountains of chips in front of me
But this world —
It’s lost its mind.
🎵 [Verse 4 – Post-Rock Style / Spoken-Whisper]
I feel alone here
Like I slipped outside the frame
Flashes of boyhood pain
Flooding back again…
⚡ [Pre-Chorus – Screamed]
I’m invisible…
That’s how they treat me
Like I was never real
Shut out from every circle
I HATED THAT FEELING…
🔥 [Chorus 2 – Screamed, Desperate]
Still they push — still they shove —
Everyone pretends it’s normal
AM I THE ONLY ONE SCREAMING?!
Or is this silence… just in me?
🌪 [Finale Chorus – Screamed / Epic]
NO MORE FEAR —
NO MORE MASKS
I’M ALL-IN
I’LL TEAR THROUGH THIS NIGHTMARE
I EXIST — AND I WON’T FADE!
🧊 [Outro – Spoken, Cold Female Voice]
“Tonight is our monthly Push or Fold event.
All decisions must be all-in… or fold.
Enjoy the thrill of something different.”

My favorite song generated from these lyrics is the following. The punch line at the end is omitted, making it just a crazy song. Well, I guess that’s what screamo is all about, so maybe this is a good song in its own way. Personally, I like the way the song ends (synthesizer?). I included Techno-like elements in the Style Description, so even though it’s a screamo song, it has a fair amount of synthesizers in it.

Screamo tends to sound like metal, but I also created another pop-rock-like song. This song is quite soft, so I think it’s easy to listen to. Personally, I like the final guitar solo, which suddenly stops when the announcement is over, and I thought it was funny because it gave off the feeling of “What? Are you serious?” I felt like I shouldn’t keep three songs with the same lyrics, but I felt like there were parts of each song that I liked, so I decided to keep it as it is this time.
