Cortisol Rising (Amygdala) #Sunoverse

V5

[Intro] [Verse 1] I don’t need to touch your skin to make you bleed I just find the little doubts on which you feed You’re standing distinct, you’re standing tall But I can see the chemistry behind the wall A little spike of voltage in the grey To wash the logic and the calm away You think you’re brave? You think you’re stone? Darling, terror is the only thing you own [Pre-Chorus] Pupils dilate Palms wet You haven't even seen the monster yet [Chorus] I am the glitch in the primitive mind The beautiful panic that leaves you blind Paint me a picture in sweat and in shakes I love the sound that your sanity makes Oh, the rush, can you feel the flood? I’m the alarm bell ringing in your blood Amygdala... [Verse 2] They call it cruelty, I call it art Rewiring the rhythm of a failing heart Joy is a mask, and love is a lie But fear is the truth that you can’t deny It’s lonely up here, holding the strings Listening to the song that your nightmare sings Maybe I’m broken, maybe I’m cold Or maybe I’m just taking back what you sold I crave the shivering, I need the spark To remind me I’m living inside of the dark [Pre-Chorus] Fight or flight? Freeze or fall? It doesn't matter, I control it all [Chorus] I am the glitch in the primitive mind The gorgeous disaster that leaves you blind Paint me a picture in sweat and in shakes I love the sound that your sanity makes Oh, the rush, can you feel the flood? I’m the alarm bell ringing in your blood Amygdala... [Jagged Bio-Horror Cello Solo] [Bridge] If I let you go... silence returns And silence is the only thing that truly burns I need your screaming to drown out my own So please... DON’T LEAVE ME ALONE [Guitar Solo] [Outro] Breathe in... Breathe out... There’s nothing to worry about Just the chemicals... Just me...
