[Intro] A thousand cuts Take time To Heeeeeeeee-aaaaaaa-llllll [Verse 1][Vocal: Soft, innocent, youthful] You say my outfit looks so great, Though too daring because of my weight. [Spoken/Sharp] Cut. [Resume Singing] Claiming you are just being helpful, Pointing out flaws—I should be grateful! [Pre-Chorus: Building intensity] No more listening to what you say! [Gang vocals: SAY!] [Chorus 1: High energy, anthemic, aggressive] Just how am I supposed to feel? [Long Breath] A thousand cuts take time to heal... [Heavy Sustain] Words like knives piercing every day — [Dramatic Pause] Mind games I will no longer play... [Post-Chorus] [Style: Heavy Metal, Shouting, Aggressive, Uniform Intensity] NO MORE TEARS! NO MORE FEAR! JUST! SEVER! FOREVER! [Verse 2][Same melody as Verse 1][Vocal: Soft, innocent, youthful] Can't say a word or do anything right, You make every move into a fight. [Spoken/Sharp] Cut. [Resume Singing] Controlling how I act and what I wear, It's for my own good, that's what you swear! [Pre-Chorus: Building intensity] No more listening to what you say! [Gang vocals: SAY!] [Chorus 2: High energy, anthemic, aggressive][Same melody as Chorus 1] Just how am I supposed to feel? [Long Breath] A thousand cuts take time to heal... [Heavy Sustain] Words like knives piercing every day — [Dramatic Pause] Mind games I will no longer play... [Post-Chorus] [Style: Heavy Metal, Shouting, Aggressive, Uniform Intensity] NO MORE TEARS! NO MORE FEAR! JUST! SEVER! FOREVER! [Bridge][Building intensity][Vocal: Empowered, sharp, rising] Your grip has broken. I severed the chain. Now free from the pain! [Solo] [Verse 3][Same melody as Verse 1][Vocal: Soft, innocent, youthful] Put me down, 'cause you thought I was weak, Keep me home, while you go out to cheat. [Spoken/Sharp] Cut. [Resume Singing] I'm not the girl you fell for you say Thret-ten suicide when I walk away! [Pre-Chorus: Building intensity] No more listening to what you say! [Gang vocals: SAY!] [Final chorus: High energy, anthemic, aggressive] Just how am I supposed to feel? [Long Breath] A thousand cuts take time to heal... [Heavy Sustain] Words like knives piercing every day — [Dramatic Pause] Mind games I will no longer play... [Post-Chorus] [Style: Heavy Metal, Shouting, Aggressive, Uniform Intensity] NO MORE TEARS! NO MORE FEAR! JUST! SEVER! FOREVER! [Outro] [Twin guitar melody] [Drums: driving, relentless] Free from the pain! Severed! Forever! [Guitar solo fades out over driving drums] [Final crash of the cymbal] [End]
