02 - Growing Shadows

[Intro] [deep organic drone] [wet mechanical pulse] [distant reversed whispers] I planted your name Where no one could ever see it. Under my tongue. Behind my eyes. And between my bones. Until it started to groooooow, oh-oh, oooh. [Verse 1] At first it was a crack across the wall, Just a narrow line beneath the sun. A shadow breathing softly on its own, A root unfolding somewhere deep within. I watered it with things I never said, With promises I never could sustain. Every night it spread a little more, Every day it grew much harder to inhale. [Pre-Chorus] I don't know when it came. I never saw it move. But everything it touches Never stays the way it used to. [Pause] [Chorus] Grow over me. Grow beyond control. Climb along my arms And wrap around my heart. Cultivo de sombras. Shadows between us both. I no longer know which part Still belongs to me And which belongs to both. [Instrumental Drop] [thick pulsating bassline] [repetitive psychedelic synth pattern] [chopped vocal: crece, crece, crece] [warped breathing rhythm] [Verse 2] All the windows disappeared beneath the damp, And the roots pushed through the floor. There are flowers opening whenever they can hear The subtle cadence of your voice. Every petal still remembers all your heat, Every thorn is shaped like your intent. I tried to cut the central stem away, But it ran directly to my heart. [Pre-Chorus] It won't let me sleep. It won't let me leave. Everything I never name Keeps growing underneath. [Chorus] Grow over me. Grow beyond control. Climb along my arms And wrap around my heart. Cultivo de sombras. Shadows between us both. I no longer know which part Still belongs to me And which belongs to both. [Post-Chorus] Deeper. Deeper. Where no one can get in. Más profundo. Más profundo. From where I cannot tear it free. [Instrumental Break] [acid synth crawling upward] [low distorted vocal fragments] [heartbeat kick accelerating] [stereo whispers crossing sides] [Bridge] I gave the prison all the shape of a garden. I gave water to the way it came inside. I mistook its growing hunger for devotion, And its thorns for reasons to survive. Now the ceiling has a pulse and respiration. Now the floor contracts beneath my feet. Every house must have a root. But this one grew Far beyond me. [Build] Cut it down. Burn it out. Let it grow again. Cut it down. Burn it out. Seguro va a volver. Do not touch it. Do not name it. Do not watch it as it blooms. Everything that learns to feed Will also learn to own you. [Final Chorus] Grow over me. Grow beyond control. Climb along my arms And wrap around my heart. Cultivo de sombras. Shadows between us both. I no longer know which part Still belongs to me And which belongs to both. [Final Drop] [crushing kick and sub-bass] [layered distorted chant: grow over me] [psychedelic vocal echoes] [synth pattern mutating each repetition] [Outro] [wet roots cracking through concrete] [heartbeat slowing] [End]
