Primal

[Intro] [Inaudible 19Hz infrasound wave activates, creating an immediate subconscious physical thrill] [A heavy, syncopated, walking sub-bassline drops into a predatory 84 BPM pocket] [Crisp, metallic percussion ticks like a ticking clock] [Vocalist delivers a low, resonant, breathy vocal fry: "I see that look in your eyes... yeah. Stop hiding it."] [Verse 1] You’ve been playing it so perfect, walking on a wire Keeping it together, trying to smother out the fire But you’re tired of the manners and the sweet little routine There’s a dangerous side of you I’ve always wanted seen I’m pulling down your focus to the heat against the floor Unlocking all the secrets that you locked behind the door We’re stripping off the surface, let the friction take the lead I’m gonna wake the animal and give you what you need [Pre-Chorus] [The bassline grows heavier; a dark, distorted synth-pad begins to swell] [Vocal harmonies start to stack closer to the microphone, increasing physical intimacy] I wrap my fingers round your wrists like a silk design I’m bringing out the bad girl that you bury all the time A gentle catch inside your throat, your breath begins to stall As the predator inside you wakes to answer to the call [Chorus] [ The vocalist Wall of Sound completely explodes. Massive, triple-tracked heavy metal guitars blast left and right. An overwhelming, larger-than-life wall of multi-layered vocal harmonies fills the stereo field] Now you’re primal! Uhh!!!![Ab5] Yeah, you’re primal! Oh!!!! [Ab5] The animal is breaking loose and running through your veins! I’m bringing out the bad girl, we are breaking all the chains! Now you’re primal! Oh!!!! [Ab5] (Massive, explosive Dirty Diana style guitar punctuation) [Verse 2] [The heavy guitars instantly cut out, dropping back into the dark, heavy, throbbing R&B groove] Blindfolded in the darkness, feel the weight of my command No more holding back the wild, I trace it with my hand I tie your focus to the steel, anchor down your gaze Surrendering your body to the heavy velvet haze The creature in the shadows is starting up to thrum Yielding to the pressure of the pleasure that's to come [Pre-Chorus] I wrap my fingers round your wrists like a silk design I’m bringing out the bad girl that you bury all the time A gentle catch inside your throat, your breath begins to stall As the predator inside you wakes to answer to the call [Chorus] Now you’re primal! Ohhhhh!!!! Yeah, you’re primal! Ohhhhh!!!! The animal is breaking loose and running through your veins! I’m bringing out the bad girl, we are breaking all the chains! Now you’re primal! Ohhhhh!!!! [Bridge] [All melodic instruments vanish completely. The mix is stripped down to just the raw, pelvic 210.42Hz sub-bass and a heavy, tribal-pop drum beat] [The vocals shift into a hyper-layered, rhythmic, panting chant, building intense physical tension] (Panting vocal rhythm: "Ha... Huff... Hold it... Breathe...") Bound tight. Wild side. Take hold. Unfold. (Vocal layers multiply, whispering in a wide circle around the listener's head) Let her out. Let her out. Let her out. (Vocalist lets out a soaring, gritty, full-throated rock scream that hits the ceiling) YEAH! [Final Chorus] [Maximum studio chaos and volume. The Wall of Sound returns with double the intensity. Screaming arena guitars clash with the massive, triple-tracked vocal arrangement] Now you’re primal! Ohhhhh!!!! Yeah, you’re primal! Ohhhhh!!!! The animal is breaking loose and running through your veins! I’m bringing out the bad girl, we are breaking all the chains! Now you’re primal! Ohhhhh!!!! [Outro] [The signature heavy metal guitar riff plays out with rapid, violent drum fills] Primal... let the animal run. (Final, intimate, close-mic'd breath-gasp right in the center ear: "Ooh-wah...") [One final, crashing distorted chord drops instantly into a ringing, low sub-bass hum that slowly decays into silence]
