I’m loving the arrangement. I love the heft. Heavy without being bludgeoning. With lots of space and dynamic changes to keep its five minutes from being too much (much less painful.) Those loud guitars are so up front, I love them but maybe the mix isn’t the smoothest it could be. Still very good. Going into the 2:46 section seems just a tad off for some reason. But I like both sections. Maybe it’s the drum sounds. Seems very tight and dry and upfront. Regardless, picking nits isn’t really fair to a song that I think is extremely well written and performed. Lyrically, this seems more like a dark cave than a dark cove but I like the lyric quite a bit.

SOLID!
The humming and claps opening is instantly engaging. The almost-metal arrangement is tight and clean. Vocal performance spot on. This is the chorus I had in my head much of the last 4 days. Very catchy! Sorta missed the prompt, but exceeded its spirit.
"The more you keep, the less you can give" rings true. Wraps up nicely.

For a second this started off like it could have been a Sober song. 😂 I suspect maybe you also misread the title as "Dark Cave"? The chorus is super duper 90s sounding. For me that works. I think some of the transitions between parts, particularly in the first half of the song, feel a little clunky and could be smoother. The bridge breakdown is maybe a bit long. I think there could have been some additional instrumentation there, maybe a pad of some sort, or something with some movement, like a slow arpeggio or something. There sounds like there is some kind of drum mistake right in the beginning of the chorus after the bridge? The ending feels a bit abrupt, a couple more "chugga ... chugga ...." might have been nice.
