Rush Job Ruin (Remix of @Skeleton Jesus for instrumental]

[Verse 1] Clock on the wall keeps blinkin', red light in my eyes Boss man say we behind, cut the corners, save time Warning labels on the floor, but they faded like lies Signed my name on the line, didn’t read what’s inside [Pre-Chorus] White coats, grey suits, numbers on a screen Say it’s all controlled, just a standard routine But the siren in my chest started hummin’ low Felt it in my bones, somethin’ ‘bout to blow [Chorus] We rushed the work, now the dead don’t sleep They rise from the wreck where the secrets bleed Lab lights flicker and the glass runs red A bad batch born and it won’t stay dead Assembly line ghosts in the chemical rain We traded our souls for a profit gain That shortcut spark lit a plague in the air Now the whole damn world’s in a nightmare stare [Verse 2] Steel doors hiss, smell of bleach in my lungs Supervisor smirks, says, “The tests all done” But the checklist thin as the gloves on my hands Every skipped step was a new dead man Barcode sticker on a half-sealed crate Ship it out fast, we’re behind on dates Saw a vial crack, heard a soft wet hiss Tiny ghost cloud floatin’ in the mist [Pre-Chorus] Vent fans choke, red code on the wall One dropped screw starts a global fall They silenced the alarms, kept the cameras blind Signed off lies in a dotted line [Chorus] We rushed the work, now the dead don’t sleep They rise from the wreck where the secrets bleed Lab lights flicker and the glass runs red A bad batch born and it won’t stay dead Assembly line ghosts in the chemical rain We traded our souls for a profit gain That shortcut spark lit a plague in the air Now the whole damn world’s in a nightmare stare [Bridge] First came the cough, then the yellowed eyes Jawbones clickin’ like a punchcard time They dragged their chains down the factory stairs Teeth full of hunger, skin full of despair Management gone, left us locked inside With the rusted locks and the rising tide Of bodies twitchin’ to a broken beat Marchin’ in time with the stamp of feet [Chorus] We rushed the work, now the dead don’t sleep They rise from the wreck where the secrets bleed Lab lights flicker and the glass runs red A bad batch born and it won’t stay dead Assembly line ghosts in the chemical rain We traded our souls for a profit gain That shortcut spark lit a plague in the air Now the whole damn world’s in a nightmare stare [Outro] Clipboards float in the hallway flood Company logo written out in blood This is what you get when you race that clock When safety’s the first thing you cut from the stock Now the sirens sing through the smokestack sky Every rushed job is a reason why In the ruins, hear the bone choir moan We built this ending in the safety zone
