[Intro] [Whispered] Shine... Shine... Shine for me... [Verse 1] [Low, tense] Got a plastic halo From a plastic god Cheap salvation For the damaged and lost Every promise shines Till the paint comes off Every hero falls When the lights go off [Distorted backing vocal] Lights go off... [Pre-Chorus] [Building] Everybody wants forgiveness Nobody wants the truth [Harmony rising] It's underneath... Underneath... [Chorus] [Heavy, explosive] Plastic halo! Over my head! Cover the cracks! Cover the dead! Plastic halo! Bright as a lie! The harder I pray The faster it dies! [Break] [Sudden silence] ... [Whispered] Still believe? [Verse 2] [Dark, rhythmic] Every blessing came with teeth Every saint sold me relief Now the choir's out of tune And the sun looks like the moon [Backing vocal] Out of tune... [Pre-Chorus] [More intense] Everybody wears redemption Like a mask they never chose [Harmony] There it goes... There it goes... [Chorus] [Huge, layered harmonies] Plastic halo! Over my head! Cover the cracks! Cover the dead! Plastic halo! Bright as a lie! The harder I pray The faster it dies! [Bridge] [Half-time, eerie] Ohhhh... [Whispered] Nothing holy survives here. [Building] Peel it off... Peel it off... PEEL IT— [Breakdown] [Crushing] OFF! [Hit] OFF! [Hit] OFF! [Final Chorus] [Massive, desperate] Plastic halo! Over my head! Cover the cracks! Cover the dead! Plastic halo! Bright as a lie! The harder I pray The faster it dies! [Outro] [Whispered, fading] Shine... Shine... Shine for me...
