[Instrumental Intro: dizzying dissonant piano clusters, dry close miked complex drums] [Key: E Lydian Augmented] [Emaj7#5] [Verse 1: isolated upfront dry vocal, minimal grinding bass, suspended static harmony] [Key: E Lydian Augmented] [Emaj7#5] I... leave. The turning... profit wheel! The heavy calendar. Is... torn! A. Quiet. Apathy! Is born. [D#m11] [Sudden rapid whisper] I numb the sudden urge to feel! [Pre-Chorus: rapid fire scatter singing, jarring polychords over pedal bass] [Key: E Lydian Augmented] [F/E] I draw the heavy. Velvet. Blind! [C/E] The factory... begins to. Hum. [Bb/E] I let. The. Racing. Engine... numb. [Eb/E] A vacant! Harbor! In the! Mind! [Chorus: bombastic abrasive avant prog explosion, dry and punchy] [Key: E Lydian Augmented] [E5] I CELEBRATE! [Pause] The lazy head! [Bb5] The industry! Can turn. And grind! [G5] I leave! The urgent rush! Behind! [Manic unhinged preacher belt] [Db5] I... anchor... to the heavy. BED! [Verse 2: rhythmic hyper syncopation, disjointed syllables, suspended static harmony] [Key: E Lydian Augmented] [Highly theatrical disjointed vocal] [Emaj7#5] They ask. A profitable yield? I STARE into the... vacant... white. Ignoring the approaching... [Hiss] Night. [D#m11] A highly crafted. Idle shield! [Pre-Chorus: rapid fire scatter singing, jarring polychords over pedal bass] [Key: E Lydian Augmented] [F/E] I draw the heavy. Velvet. Blind! [C/E] The factory... begins to. Hum. [Bb/E] I let. The. Racing. Engine... numb. [Eb/E] A vacant! Harbor! In the! Mind! [Bridge: jarring stops, violently alternating vocal speeds, angular math rock chords] [Key: E Lydian Augmented] [Violently erratic yelp] [Amaj7#11] The calculation. Turns! To! Dust! [F#7b9] I leave the ledger. In the rain! [Cmaj7#5] A sudden quiet. In the. BRAIN! [Eb7#9] A thick! And comfortable! RUST! (Comfortable! R r r rust!) [Amaj7#11] The rapid ticking starts to... fade... [F#7b9] I WILL NOT JUSTIFY THE DAY! [Cmaj7#5] I push! The frantic screen. Away. [Eb7#9] Retreating to the deepest shade! [Final Chorus: intense vocal delivery, tight staccato bombast] [Key: E Lydian Augmented] [E5] I CELEBRATE! [Pause] The lazy head! [Bb5] The industry! Can turn. And grind! [G5] I leave! The urgent rush! Behind! [Full manic wail] [Db5] I... anchor... to the heavy. BED! [Instrumental Outro: fading dry instruments, dissonant piano] [Key: E Lydian Augmented] [Breathy exhausted spoken word] [Emaj7#5] The running... motor... starts to... cool... A heavy drifting. In the deep. I welcome the impending sleep. [D#m11] [Long drawn out sigh] A still... and unreflecting... pool... (The pressure falls... away...) (I will not. Move. Today...) [Hard Stop] [End]
