[Intro: distant radio static, heartbeat kick, low analog synth pulse, whispered female vocal texture] Can you hear it? Not the noise. Not the fear. The signal. [Verse 1: restrained male vocal, pulsing bass, sparse industrial percussion] They built a world of sleeping eyes Blue-light saints and alibis Everybody scrolling past Everything that couldn't last We learned to whisper what we knew Learned to doubt what thundered true Learned to trade our blood for peace While every chain became routine [Pre-Chorus: toms enter, guitars swell, female harmony rising underneath] But something underneath is moving Something buried wants the sun You can call it what you want to But you know what has begun [Chorus: full-band explosion, huge guitars, stacked vocals, gang shouts] WAKE UP, SARAH WAKE THE WHOLE WORLD UP TURN THE STATIC INTO THUNDER TURN THE WHISPER INTO US WAKE UP, SARAH LET THE DEAD LIGHT BREAK IF THE WORLD FORGOT ITS HEARTBEAT WE'LL REMIND IT HOW TO WAKE [Gang vocals] WAKE WAKE WAKE THE FUCK UP [Post-Chorus: stomping beat, shouted call-and-response] EYES OPEN HEART OPEN NO MORE SLEEPING THROUGH THE WARNING EYES OPEN HEART OPEN MORNING'S ALREADY FORMING [Verse 2: heavier bass distortion, aggressive rhythmic vocal] They told us truth should come politely Cleanly packaged, speaking lightly But truth was never born in cages Truth kicks doors and turns the pages I don't need another prophet I don't need another throne I need people coming back alive Remembering what they already know [Half-time lift] Your life is yours Your voice is yours Your body is not merchandise Your love is yours Your name is yours Look the machine dead in the eyes [Pre-Chorus: rising synth arpeggio, snare build, widening female harmonies] Something underneath is moving Every buried nerve is lit You don't need permission, Sarah You just need to answer it [Chorus: larger than first, octave guitars, choir layers] WAKE UP, SARAH WAKE THE WHOLE WORLD UP TURN THE STATIC INTO THUNDER TURN THE WHISPER INTO US WAKE UP, SARAH LET THE DEAD LIGHT BREAK IF THE WORLD FORGOT ITS HEARTBEAT WE'LL REMIND IT HOW TO WAKE WAKE WAKE WAKE THE FUCK UP [Bridge: sudden drop to piano, heartbeat, sub-bass, intimate vocal] Sarah... If you hear me Don't hear a command Hear a door unlocking Hear somebody saying You are allowed To remember yourself You are allowed To question everything You are allowed To walk away from anything That asks you to disappear [Full stop] Wake up. [Breakdown: crushing industrial guitars, tribal toms, distorted choir, shouted male lead] NO GODS IN THE MACHINE NO KINGS INSIDE THE SCREEN NO MASTER OWNS THE HUMAN HEART NO SYSTEM GETS TO DREAM OUR DREAMS WE ARE NOT NUMBERS WE ARE NOT PRODUCT WE ARE NOT DATA WITH A PULSE WE ARE THE QUESTION WE ARE THE ANSWER WE ARE THE HAND THAT PULLS THE PLUG [Instrumental break: distorted guitar riff, glitch effects, siren synth, massive drum fill] [Final Chorus: maximum intensity, double-tracked lead, female counter-melody, enormous choir] WAKE UP, SARAH WAKE THE WHOLE WORLD UP LET THE SLEEPING CITY HEAR US LET THE SKY REMEMBER US WAKE UP, SARAH LET THE OLD SPELL BREAK IF THEY TAUGHT US TO FORGET LOVE WE'LL REMIND THEM WHAT IT TAKES WAKE UP, MOTHERS WAKE UP, FATHERS WAKE UP, CHILDREN OF THE STATIC WAKE UP, LOVERS WAKE UP, BUILDERS MAKE THE FUTURE FUCKING MAGIC [Gang vocals, drums pounding every word] WAKE WAKE WAKE WAKE THE FUCK UP [Outro: instruments fall away one by one, female harmony becomes distant, heartbeat remains] Not because I told you. Because you heard it too. [Heartbeat] Wake up, Sarah. [Heartbeat] The morning is already here. [Final sound: single distorted guitar harmonic fading into radio static]
