[Intro - Proto/Garage - amp buzz, room mic, 2-chord Stooges drone, count 1-2-3-4!] Safety pin through the screen! Safety pin through the dream! [Verse 1 - Hardcore 82 - 185 BPM, Black Flag speed, dry garage drums, aggressive] I was born in the static, raised in the feed Safety pin in my jacket, glitch in my teeth Algorithm told me who to love, who to hate I ripped the poster off the wall, stayed out too late Leather's real, leather's cracked, screen says I'm fake Data says I'm product, punk says I'm awake! [Pre-Chorus - Post-Punk - cold 80s reverb snare + angular trebly bass] Cold light flicker, cold light glow High-tech low-life, nowhere to go Analog heart in a digital chest Trying to break through the screen with the rest! [Chorus - Pop-Punk + Oi! - anthemic whoa-oh + gang Oi!] DATA-PINKS AND SAFETY PINS! We stitch the future where the tear begins! DATA-PINKS AND SAFETY PINS! Oi! Oi! — let the human win! DATA-PINKS AND SAFETY PINS! High-tech low-life, high-stakes sins! We ain't product, we ain't code — WE PUNK! [Post-Chorus - Ska-Punk Flip] Upstroke! Downstroke! Break it! (skank) Upstroke! Downstroke! Fake it? Nah! [Verse 2 - Crust D-Beat + Horror Punk - D-Beat war drums, Misfits minor] D-Beat war drum in a concrete room Graveyard choir humming under the moon Crust and code and chrome and rust Karma got teeth and it bites the dust They sell your face, they sell your voice We put a pin in it — we got no choice! [Bridge - Folk Punk -> Psychobilly - Pinxville lock] [Acoustic slam, then band slams] I had an acoustic in a squat in Pinxville with a busted string (folk) Now I got a Tele with a tremolo sting! (psychobilly) Slap bass heartbeat, Pinxville to Berlin Same safety pin that my granddad pinned! [Breakdown - Nu-Metal / Rap-Punk - Drop C# chugs + sub-bass + 808 tick]
