[INTRO: 174 BPM, distant lyre, crooked percussion, soft vinyl hiss] [WHISPERED] Everybody loved the flower. Nobody asked the flower. [BEAT ENTERS: sparse Amen fragments, rubber sub pulses] [VERSE 1] Sunlight on the river Gold dust in his hair Apollo saw forever Waiting for him there Zephyr caught the feeling Started bending every breeze Everybody wanted Hyacinth Nobody let him breathe [PRE-CHORUS: bass begins bending downward] Everybody wants the flower Everybody wants the prize Everybody sees heaven When they're looking through their eyes [CHORUS: deep sub drop, warped vocal doubles] There's something about Hyacinth Everybody wants the boy One wants love and one wants glory Everybody wants the joy Throw the discus, dodge the drama Watch the whole thing ricochet Love gets strange when gods get jealous And somebody gets in the way [POST-CHORUS: chopped vocal] Hy-a-cinth Hy-a-cinth Don't let me lose you Don't let me lose you [BASS MUTATION: reese stretches, FM bends, break fragments] [VERSE 2] One says, “I knew him first” One says, “I know his heart” One says, “This was written” One says, “This was ours” But fate don't need a contract And beauty ain't a claim You can call it holy love Still turn it into a game [DRUM FILL: increasingly off-grid] Apollo threw the discus Zephyr pushed the wind Hyacinth ran toward it And the tragedy begins [DROP: drums vanish, single sub pulse] [LOW WHISPER] Don't bury him. [Silence] [HORROR BREAKDOWN: wind, reversed lyre, distant shovel hits] You made him into memory You made him into myth You couldn't stand the ending So you went looking underneath [BUILD: heartbeat kick, granular vocals] Dig him up Dig him up Love don't know when to stop Dig him up Dig him up Death just locked another door [RESURRECTION DROP: full jungle, distorted sub, chaotic breaks] There's something about Hyacinth Now the graveyard's got a beat Apollo brought the flowers But the flowers brought the grief There's something about Hyacinth Everybody wants him back When you bury love too deeply Love comes crawling through the cracks [BREAKCORE BRIDGE: rhythmic vocal stutters] LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! [SUB DROP] Was it love? Or was it— [STUTTER] “Don't leave me.” “Don't leave me.” “Don't leave me.” [FINAL VERSE: half-time, sinister groove] You cannot own a heartbeat You cannot cage a soul You cannot turn a person Into something you control The flower keeps on blooming The story keeps on growing But resurrection ain't redemption When the dead don't get a say [FINAL CHORUS: maximal psychedelic jungle] There's something about Hyacinth Everybody wants the boy Apollo wanted heaven Zephyr wanted more Throw the love, dodge the drama Watch the whole myth ricochet Everybody wanted forever Nobody asked him what he'd say [OUTRO: beat fragments gradually disintegrate] [WHISPER] Everybody loved the flower. [PAUSE] Nobody asked the flower. [FINAL SUB HIT] 174 BPM.
