Heartbeat like a snare drum, ticking time-bomb soul, Pressure in the chamber, feel the furnace roll. City lights are flashing, minds are catching fire, Tightrope on a wire — we’re ready to expire. Adrenaline’s a preacher, screaming in my chest, Rules turn to paper planes and we fold them with the rest. Step closer to the edge, taste the salt, feel the rain, I swear the ground’s a rumor and I’m losing the name. Hands in the air, let the sound break the cage, No instruction manual for this kind of rage. Breathe in the chaos, exhale the chains, Heartbeat to the gutter, we’re dancing with the pain. I got a riot in my veins, can’t hold it back, can’t pull the reins, Losing control, watch me fall — I’ll rise again. Turn the speakers up, let thunder take the throne, I’m outta time, outta line — and I’m coming home. Guitar like a guillotine, bass like a plague, Every little whisper is a shout that can’t be saved. Clock hands shiver, countdown on a loop, We swallow all the quiet and we puke it through the roof. Straight jacket thoughts unbutton, slip onto the floor, We’re sergeants of the fever knocking on the door. No more gentle nudges, no more patient trains, We’re syncing up the chaos, putting gasoline to chains. Tear out the script, burn every printed line, Lose the maps that told us we’d be fine. Step into the static, jump into the wave, If losing is the lesson, let the lesson save. I got a riot in my veins, can’t hold it back, can’t pull the reins, Losing control, watch me fall — I’ll rise again. Turn the speakers up, let thunder take the throne, I’m outta time, outta line — and I’m coming home. Dub-slap heartbeat, staccato mind, Echoes of the panic, rhythm unrefined. Shout it, scream it, let the world recoil, We were born to break this, born to soil. Drop into the chorus of anarchy and grace, Let the bassline drag you to another place. No more rules to chain the soul, Let the riot roll and roll and roll. Lose it! Lose it! Lose it! — feel the wire burn! Find it! Find it! Find it! — in every turn! Hands up, head down, heart wide open wide, We crash the calm and ride the tide! Riot in my veins, can’t hold it back, can’t pull the reins, Losing control, watch me fall — I’ll rise again. Turn the speakers up, let thunder take the throne, I’m outta time, outta line — and I’m coming home. Riot in my veins, blood drum, iron chain, Losing control, losing the pain — I’ll feel alive again. Smoke clears, still buzzing, footprints on the floor, We left a map of madness on the locker room door. If control was ever honest, it’s a lie we waived, ‘Cause I got a riot in my veins and I’m not afraid.
