V5.5

[Intro: Instrumental]
(Strange, backwards-playing synth sounds. A heavy, rolling bassline slowly fades in.)

[Spoken Word: Female]
(Echoing, panning from left to right ear)
The stairs lead down... into the sky.
Don't lose your way.

[Verse 1: Male]
(Singing, driving and focused)
I step across a liquid floor
And walk right through a painted door
The gravity begins to crawl
I'm standing on the ceiling wall
A million pathways twist and bend
A journey that will never end

[Verse 2: Female]
(Singing, floating and mysterious)
The colors breathe, the shadows speak
We find exactly what we seek
A clock goes backward on the square
Suspended in the heavy air
Illusion is the only guide
With nowhere left for us to hide

[Pre-Chorus: Duet (Male & Female)]
(Energy rising, snare drum building up)
Every corner is an open mind!
Leaving the waking world behind!
The architecture starts to fade
Welcome to the game we played!

[Chorus: Duet (Male & Female)]
(Huge, rolling trance drop, dark and massive)
Lost inside the shifting maze!
Caught within this lucid daze!
Turn around and face the night
Bathed in artificial light
Nothing here is what it seems
The architect of broken dreams!

[Instrumental Break / Acid Trance Drop]
(Driving bassline, twisting acid-trance synths, heavy and hypnotic)

[Verse 3: Male]
(Singing, powerful and emotional)
I see a face I used to know
Dissolving in the undertow
The memories take a physical shape
A beautiful and dark escape
If I control the things I see
Why is this maze controlling me?

[Pre-Chorus: Duet (Male & Female)]
Every corner is an open mind!
Leaving the waking world behind!
The architecture starts to fade
Welcome to the game we played!

[Chorus: Duet (Male & Female)]
(Maximum energy, soaring melodies over a dark bassline)
Lost inside the shifting maze!
Caught within this lucid daze!
Turn around and face the night
Bathed in artificial light
Nothing here is what it seems
The architect of broken dreams!

[Breakdown / Surreal Atmosphere]
(The beat vanishes completely. Just a single, long, eerie synth note holding steady.)

[Spoken Word: Female]
(Very calm, intimately close)
Turn left... at the forgotten memory.

[Build-up]
(Fast snare rolls, synths pitching upwards, intense riser)

[Final Chorus: Duet (Male & Female)]
(Explosive final drop)
Lost inside the shifting maze!
Caught within this lucid daze!
Turn around and face the night
Bathed in artificial light
Nothing here is what it seems
The architect of broken dreams!

[Outro: Instrumental]
(The beat slowly breaks down into scattered, echoing drums and fading synths)

[Spoken Word: Female]
(Whispering, fading out)
Still dreaming...

[End]
