Monster

V6

\[Intro — Haunted Music Box, Church Bells, Wind, Deep Whispers\] The moon hangs pale above the dead, Crooked trees bow down their heads. A lonely house upon the hill, Its windows dark, its halls so still. \[Three Knocks, Distorted Whisper\] "I'm... still... here..." \[Verse 1 — 150 BPM, Industrial Drums, Reese Bass, Dark Male Vocals\] Floorboards groan beneath my feet, Something drags beneath the sheets. Lock the doors and draw the blinds, Something scratches from inside. Three hollow knocks beneath the floor, Silence falls, then three knocks more. It knows my name, it knows my face, It follows me from place to place. \[Build — Rising Screeches, Snare Rolls, Monster Growls\] "COME CLOSER!" "I'VE BEEN WAITING!" \[DROP — Brutal Deathstep, Tearout Bass, Metallic Screeches, Machine-Gun Wobbles\] BELOW! BELOW! SOMETHING DOWN BELOW! DON'T LOOK! DON'T GO! IT KNOWS WHAT YOU DON'T KNOW! SCRATCH! SCRATCH! BREAK THE FLOOR! THREE! KNOCKS! MORE! \[Instrumental — 8 Bars, Aggressive Bass Growls, Glitch Stutters\] \[Verse 2 — Half-Time, Dissonant Strings, Deep Vocals\] The candle flickers, shadows grow, A twisted shape crawls from below. Too many limbs, a broken spine, A thousand teeth in crooked lines. Its hollow eyes reflect no light, Its skin stretched thin and deathly white. It bends its neck and speaks my name, A voice that sets my blood aflame. \[Breakdown — Dead Silence, Heartbeat, Female Whisper\] "Why do you hide?" "Just close your eyes..." \[Build — Horror Choir, Rising Bass, Rapid Snares\] I turn around! There's nothing there! A freezing hand! Cold, stagnant air! \[DROP 2 — Extreme Tearout, Distorted Bass Screams, Rapid Triplets\] INSIDE! INSIDE! NOWHERE LEFT TO HIDE! UNDER SKIN! LET! ME! IN! \[Bridge — Music Box, Whispers, Sub-Bass Pulse\] "You searched the dark to find my face, But never thought to search this place. I wasn't hiding in the wall... I lived inside you through it all." \[Final Drop — Maximum Deathstep, Crushing Sub-Bass, Demonic Vocal Chops\] GET IT OUT! GET IT OUT! HEAR THE VOICES SCREAM AND SHOUT! UNDER SKIN! UNDER BONE! THIS BODY IS NO LONGER HOME! \[Outro — Music Box Slowing, Floorboards Creaking\] Now something wears my face to speak, While floorboards groan and shadows creep. For monsters need no graves to keep... \[Whisper\] "Just somewhere safe... to sleep." \[Three Knocks — Sudden Silence\]
