[Verse 1 - Lead Vocal: Raw, strained, close-mic'd intimacy] Dirt taste, coffin tight Splinters greet my cheek Darkness absolute Air turns thick and weak [Guitar: Single heavy, dissonant chord rings out, then sparse muted riff] [Chorus - Harmonies: Dissonant layers, slightly louder, more desperate] Earth above (Pressin' down) Silent scream (No sound) Roots embrace (Holdin' fast) Is this grace? (Am I passed?) [Guitar: Slow, sludgy power chords. Bass: Crushing low end. Drums: Simple heavy beat] [Verse 2 - Lead Vocal: More detached, resigned, slightly melodic despair] Muffled world fades Heartbeat pounds the wood Wormsong lullaby Understood... not good [Guitar: Feedback whine intro, single-note riff with heavy bends, dissonant] [Chorus - Harmonies: More layered, more strained, slightly faster tempo - panic rising] Earth above (Crushin' bone) All alone (Groanin' stone) Soil breath (Fill my lung) Life undone (Song... unsung) [Guitar: Heavier, slightly faster riff. Drums: More insistent kick/snare] [Bridge - Lead Vocal: Whispered terror, then anguished cry. Harmony: Low drone] [Whispered] Scratch... scrape... no light... [Whispered] Is this night... eternal? [Sudden Anguished Cry] Digging echoes! Lies! [Whispered Harmony] ...final rest... infernal... [Guitar: Chaotic, dissonant feedback and scrapes. Bass: Deep, distorted drone. Drums: Erratic, crashing] [Outro - Fades slowly over 10-15 seconds] [Lead Vocal, Fading, Gasping] Cold... embrace.. [Harmony, Fading Lower] ...settlin' place... [Lead, Barely Audible] Dirt... my... face... [Music: Feedback drone, single heavy bass note, one final choked cymbal hit, then pure silence]
