[Intro | clean chorused guitar riff | sparse bass | dry intimate space] (exhausted, low whisper) Kiss me now... [Verse 1 | low baritone | dry close-mic | vocal fry | lethargic slacker delivery] (deadpan monotone, 2nd octave) See you.. there.. out the glass, On the... other side. (sighing breath) Hold my.. hand.. to the pane. Grasp the.. love.. we hide. Wash. away.. in the rain.. Never miss! ...again!. One last kiss...! for the ghost... (sudden cracked falsetto leap to 4th octave) Never miss again... [Pre-Chorus 1 | mid-chest 3rd octave | ascending tension | rising throat rasp] (shouted emotionally numb, barely rising) For--sa--ken you... Re--mem--ber you... For--sa--ken you... (upper chest strain, vocal cord crack) So kiss... me now... [Chorus 1 | full-lung false-cord shriek | octave vocal stack | room-mic bleed | wall of distortion] (shrieked with throat fry) AND I SWEAR THAT I BITE MY OWN LIP... (sustained 4th octave belt with crack) LIKE THE VE-RY FIRST TIME... (double-tracked scream) I HAVE SO MUCH LOVE... (subdued low unison) (so much love...) (throat-shredding sustain) SO KISS.. ME NOW! (shrieked with throat fry) AND I SWEAR THAT I BITE MY OWN LIP... (sustained 4th octave belt with crack) LIKE THE VE-RY FIRST TIME... (double-tracked scream) I HAVE SO MUCH LOVE... (subdued low unison) (so much love...) (throat-shredding sustain) SO KISS.. ME NOW! [Verse 2 | low baritone | drop to quiet dynamics | clean chorus guitar | detached weary delivery] (mumbled, low 2nd octave chest) Cold as glass... growing far.. Reaching out. for you... (vocal pitch droop) Foggy screen,... in between.. Can't see through to you. Some days... hurt.. more than most.. Speaking... outright now. Just a dream, in the room, (fragile unsupported falsetto break) Never miss again... [Pre-Chorus 2 | monotone 3rd octave pushing to 4th octave break | driving rhythm] (emotionally numb, pushing rasp) For---sa---ken you... Re---mem---ber you... For---sa---ken you... (sudden high dynamic leap) So!... kiss me!... now! [Chorus 2 | peak 4th octave scream | stereo double-tracked unison | explosive drums] (full-lung false-cord shriek) AND I SWEAR THAT I BITE MY OWN LIP... (cracked belt) LIKE THE VE-RY FIRST TIME... (double-tracked screech) I HAVE SO MUCH LOVE... (hollow low echo) (so much love...) (maximum lung pressure shriek) SO KISS.. ME NOW! (full-lung false-cord shriek) AND I SWEAR THAT I BITE MY OWN LIP... (cracked belt) LIKE THE VE-RY FIRST TIME... (double-tracked screech) I HAVE SO MUCH LOVE... (hollow low echo) (so much love...) (maximum lung pressure shriek) SO KISS.. ME NOW! [Guitar Solo and Bridge | slow blurred chorus guitar | rising feedback] (Instrumental melodic chorus guitar solo over driving bass and drums) (feedback swelling in pitch) (low 3rd octave chest, strained) Everything inside... (sudden register tear into shredded 4th octave scream) Is turning into tide! [Final Chorus | quiet resigned double-track | exhausted 4th octave | wall of fuzz] (resigned, depressed delivery) AND..... I SWEAR ..THAT I BITE... MY OWN LIP... LIKE THE VE---RY FIRST TIME... I HAVE SO.. MUCH LOVE... (broken rasp accent) SO KISS!... ME NOW... [Outro | sub-low baritone & vocal fry | clean decaying chorus riff | tape delay trail] (barely voiced, fading whisper) Outside the pane... Kiss my dream... (faint vocal fry drop) World is spinning... (whispered right into the microphone capsule) Kiss me... [Hard Stop] [End]
