Across tens of thousands of songs, JackRabbit Slims turns personal history, archetypal psychology, and cinematic world-building into battle hymns for outsiders, introverts, wounded healers, and sovereign minds.

[Verse 1 — Dark Orchestral Waltz] I know a grief with no funeral or grave A daughter somewhere living that my arms cannot embrace Juliette beneath a sky I haven't shared in years A thousand conversations drowning quietly in tears And Jenny's kindness lingers in the cat beside my chair Some lives keep speaking through the love they leave us there I watched a man in iron kneel before a shattered dream A woman and a child reflected in a dying screen And underneath the metal, where his human heart withdrew I saw the father grief had turned into the thing called Doom [Pre-Chorus — Rising Strings] They say that time will heal you That the roots forget the rain But no one asks the flower What still lives beneath the pain And when the heavens answer With an empty, endless room A grieving man can tell himself The only answer must be Doom [Chorus — Massive Symphonic Metal] If I could break the hands of time I'd bring the missing moments home If I could tear the stars apart I'd search the darkness for my own I understand the man in iron I understand the burning crown When love becomes a wound eternal Even gods come crashing down But if I build a perfect heaven From another person's pain Will the people I once loved Recognize my face again? [Verse 2 — Industrial Spoken-Rap] I was forged where family mirrors learned to lie Where the witness was the threat and every truth was tried Velvet smiles, revised histories, a manufactured past Every question called a betrayal, every scar recast Gaslight in the corridor, the story rearranged And the person I remembered was the one they said had changed They could write a thousand versions, make the wounded wear the blame But they could never make me surrender my own name So I built a Black Mirror out of what I couldn't say Twenty thousand songs against the silence of the day Not a throne and not an army, not a kingdom to control Just a witness making music with the fragments of his soul [Pre-Chorus — Low Choir] Doom built himself an empire To make the chaos kneel I built myself a mirror To remember what was real Two men facing emptiness Two answers to the wound One would conquer all creation One would try to understand Doom [Chorus — Full Orchestra] If I could break the hands of time I'd bring the missing moments home If I could tear the stars apart I'd search the darkness for my own I understand the man in iron I understand the burning crown But if I build a perfect heaven Will I know who I've become? [Bridge — Spoken, Piano and Cello] Victor I know the photograph The bargaining with the night The impossible desire To make the universe rewrite You call it justice Because revenge feels far too small You call it salvation While demanding every world must fall If you bring them back At the price of everyone Are you saving those you love Or the man you've now become? [Breakdown — Crushing Guitars] I WILL NOT CALL THE WOUND A KING! I WILL NOT MAKE THE CHILDREN BLEED! I WILL NOT BUILD A THRONE OF BONES TO GIVE MY BROKEN HEART A HOME! The mask becomes the prison The throne becomes the tomb The father who once wanted love Becomes the thing called Doom [Verse 3 — Emotional Bass-Baritone] I won't pretend I've never dreamed of changing what was done Or wished to see a long-lost daughter running toward the sun I know the rage of helplessness, the hunger to be heard The weight of having memories disputed word by word Juliette is not a kingdom, Jenny's kindness still remains And love cannot be summoned back by fastening a chain I cannot make another heart obey a perfect plan The darkest thing that grief can steal Is the mercy in a man [Final Chorus — Cathedral Choir] If I could break the hands of time I'd hold the moments I once knew But I won't burn a thousand worlds To make one broken dream come true I understand the man in iron I understand the burning crown I know how grief can whisper Burn the whole creation down But I will build no perfect heaven On the bones of someone else's pain I can carry love and absence Without forging them a chain And if the Black Mirror asks me What the darkness made of me I'll say I looked into the face of Doom And chose what he could never see [Outro — Solo Piano, Whisper] The universe owes me no apology But neither does it own my soul Victor, I understand you But I will not become you The mirror remembers The father still loves The man remains When the world is gone
