[Intro – Mechanical Pulse / Distant Alarm Siren] (Low distorted whisper — Dumah) You will never escape your demons… (Metal impact. Sub bass drop.) ⸻ Verse 1 (Low, controlled, ominous) I wake up choking on static air The ceiling fractures into teeth Every shadow bends toward me Like gravity serves my grief The past isn’t memory — It’s architecture in my veins Steel-framed guilt, concrete regret Built from the lives I drained I buried names beneath new skin But they still claw through bone Every life I tried to outrun Built this throne of stone ⸻ Pre-Chorus (Building, distorted harmony) I forged my own damn haunting Signed my name in blood and wire I thought I killed the man I was But he survived the fire ⸻ CHORUS (Explosive, screamed, epic) YOU’LL NEVER ESCAPE YOUR DEMONS THEY’RE WIRED INTO YOUR HEART THEY PULL THE LEVERS IN YOUR HEAD AND RIP YOUR SLEEP APART THEY DON’T DIE THEY DON’T FADE THEY DON’T LOSE YOUR SCENT THEY WAIT INSIDE YOUR SILENCE FOR THE MOMENT YOU RELENT ⸻ Verse 2 (Heavier rhythm, mechanical stomp) Dumah breathes behind my ribs Like smoke that won’t disperse He says redemption’s a myth For men designed to curse He says love won’t sterilize The violence in my core Says every kiss from her lips Is just delaying war Every nightmare feels ordained Like judgment in disguise Like I’m just one confession short Of watching hope die ⸻ Pre-Chorus (Rising orchestral tension) I don’t fear the grave I fear the truth That maybe I was never meant To stand beside her proof ⸻ CHORUS (Bigger, layered gang vocals) YOU’LL NEVER ESCAPE YOUR DEMONS THEY BREATHE WHEN YOU BREATHE THEY FEED ON YOUR DEVOTION THEY LIVE IN WHAT YOU GRIEVE YOU CAN RUN YOU CAN HIDE YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR NAME BUT CONSEQUENCE IS PATIENT AND IT ALWAYS KNOWS YOUR FACE ⸻ BREAKDOWN (Industrial collapse / Distorted whispers layered) (Dumah whisper layered repeatedly) You belong to consequence… You belong to consequence… (Johnnie — half scream, defiant) NO. (Metal slam — drums cut to half-time stomp) I’VE WALKED THROUGH FIRE AND CARRIED MY SHAME BUT I WON’T LET YOU OWN MY NAME (Dumah whisper) You were built for ruin. (Johnnie — roar) SHE WAS BUILT FOR WAR. ⸻ FINAL CHORUS (Massive, orchestral + industrial wall) YOU’LL NEVER ESCAPE YOUR DEMONS THAT’S WHAT THE DARKNESS SAID BUT SHE STANDS IN THE BREACH WITH LIGHTNING INSTEAD WHEN THEY DRAG ME UNDER WHEN THE NIGHT CLOSES IN SHE’S THE ONLY FORCE THAT CAN EXORCIZE THE SIN ⸻ OUTRO (Slow, crushing, minimal instrumentation) If salvation has a weapon It wears black lipstick and fire If heaven ever touched the ground It walked through my empire (Dumah whisper begins again) You’ll never— (Hard cut. Silence.)
