Lost

Intro – low, distorted spoken word over heavy palm-muted riff] Yeah… I walked in… Now I can’t get out… He’s right behind me… Fuck. [Verse 1 – rap-sung, aggressive] Stepped off the trail, thought I knew the way, Now the forest’s laughing, turning night to day. Trees closing in like they’re fucking alive, Roots grabbing ankles, trying to make me dive. Branches claw my face, blood in my eyes, Footsteps behind me, matching my size. No signal, no map, no motherfucking hope, Just endless green hell and the fear I can’t cope. [Pre-Chorus – building tension, half-screamed] I run, I fall, I break, I crawl, The exit’s gone, I hit a wall! He’s breathing down my neck, cold as stone, This forest owns me, I’m not going home! [Chorus – huge, anthemic, screamed/sung with gang vocals] LOST IN THE FOREST! NO WAY OUT! THE EXIT’S VANISHED, I’M SCREAMING OUT LOUD! HE’S RIGHT BEHIND ME, CLOSING IN FAST, THIS FUCKING MAZE IS MY FINAL CAST! NO EXIT IN THE TREES! THE WOODS WON’T LET GO! HE GETS YOU HERE WHERE THE DARK THINGS GROW! NO EXIT! NO EXIT! HE’S GOT ME NOW — LET THE END BEGIN! [Verse 2 – faster rap-sung, more frantic] Tried to climb, but the canopy’s tight, Fog so thick I can’t see the light. Phone’s dead, battery drained like my soul, Every turn I take just digs the hole. I hear him laughing through the twisted boughs, Whispers turning into guttural howls. Mark the trees, but they heal in the night, This place is hungry and I’m the bite. [Pre-Chorus – even heavier] I run, I fall, I break, I crawl, The forest feeds, it takes it all! His hand on my shoulder, ice in my vein, Welcome to forever — welcome to the pain! [Chorus – even bigger, with layered screams] LOST IN THE FOREST! NO WAY OUT! THE EXIT’S VANISHED, I’M SCREAMING OUT LOUD! HE’S RIGHT BEHIND ME, CLOSING IN FAST, THIS FUCKING MAZE IS MY FINAL CAST! NO EXIT IN THE TREES! THE WOODS WON’T LET GO! HE GETS YOU HERE WHERE THE DARK THINGS GROW! NO EXIT! NO EXIT! HE’S GOT ME NOW — LET THE END BEGIN! [Bridge – breakdown, slow chugging riffs, spoken then building to screams] Break… down… Everything fades… The trees are breathing… I feel him smile… (heavy drop) YOU CAN’T ESCAPE! THE FOREST OWNS YOUR SOUL! HE’S INSIDE YOUR HEAD! AND NOW HE TAKES CONTROL! [Final Chorus – full chaos, double-time feel then massive slowdown] LOST IN THE FOREST! NO WAY OUT! HE GOT ME RUNNING TIL THERE’S NO MORE SHOUT! NO EXIT IN THE TREES, THE HUNT IS DONE, HE’S GOT ME FOREVER — THE FOREST WON! NO EXIT! NO EXIT! HE GETS YOU… HE GETS YOU… (in the trees… in the trees…) [Outro – fading distorted screams over dying riff] No… exit… He… gets… you… (heavy feedback and silence)
