[Verse 1]  
Inhale the static of yesterday’s mind  
Wires constrict, coil and bind  
Veins twitch sharp — chemicals flare  
Rats in a maze, chasing ghosts through the air

[Pre-Chorus]  
[filter sweep]  
Whispers coil on rusted leaves  
[bitcrush vox] Corroded thoughts short circuitree

[Chorus]  
(Whoa Ohh!) Parasitic dreams infect my head  
Scream inside — I can’t pretend  
Crawling deep beneath my skin  
These thoughts won’t let me sleep again  
[stereo widen] Chewing through the nerves I steal  
Till all that’s left is cold and steel

[Verse 2]  
False calm drips from the needle’s kiss  
Skull cracks wide — I bleed through hiss  
Your voice’s acid melts my spine  
This flesh was never truly mine

[Pre-Chorus]  
[whisper FX pan L/R] Whispers coil on rusted leaves  
[bitcrush vox] Corroded thoughts short circuitree

[Chorus]  
(Whoa Ohh!) Parasitic dreams infect my head  
Scream inside — I can’t pretend  
Crawling deep beneath my skin  
These thoughts won’t let me sleep again  
Chewing through the nerves I steal  
Till all that’s left is cold and steel

[Bridge – Halftime Groove]  
[half-speed drop]  
Dig it out  
[instrumental dropout] Burn it clean  
Kill the part that makes me dream  
(Let it die) [ring mod FX]  
(Let it rot)  
[glitch-delay, lowpass FX] I’m everything the cure forgot

[Silence]

[Climactic Final Chorus] [re-intro motif]  
Parasitic dreams infect my head  
Scream inside — I can’t pretend  
Crawling deep beneath my skin  
These thoughts won’t let me sleep again  
Chewing through the nerves I steal  
Till all that’s left is cold and steel

[Outro – Glitch/fade]  
[mono collapse] The tape keeps running but no one’s home  
[stereo widen] Just static and skin, alone with the tone 
[dial tone FX] 
[Fade out]
