"I Fell (The Martyr's Pace)" [Music starts: A lonely, distorted guitar line, then a steady, pounding drum beat kicks in] (Verse 1) I fell by the wayside... Where no one could find me... I fell by the wayside... Yeah, you can't look behind me... (Pre-Chorus 1 - Tempo picks up) Let the BONES break! Let the SKIN tear! I ACCELERATE into the GLARE! Just a communion! This is my PRAYER! (CHORUS - Full Band Explosion) PAINT MY FACE! WITH THE SCARS I CHASE! I'M THE MARTYR OF THE RECKLESS PACE! THIS BOARD'S A WEAPON! MY HEART'S A BOMB! I'LL DIE TRYIN'! 'TIL I'M GONE! (Verse 2) I fell in the forest... body decayed there. I fell in the forest... too late. You're too late there. (Pre-Chorus 2 - Heavier, chugging guitars) I AM the carrion! I AM the soil! From quiet rot comes a VIOLENT COIL! You whisper "stop"... I SCREAM "UNCOIL!" (CHORUS) PAINT MY FACE! WITH THE SCARS I CHASE! I'M THE MARTYR OF THE RECKLESS PACE! THIS BOARD'S A WEAPON! MY HEART'S A BOMB! I'LL DIE TRYIN'! 'TIL I'M GONE! (Bridge - Music strips back to bass and drums) I fell in the ocean... body's still floating... I fell in the ocean... can't look behind me... Pressure in the deep... lights the spark... Salt in the wounds is the only mark... (Pre-Chorus 3 - Building tension) Let the BONES break! Let the SKIN tear! I ACCELERATE into the GLARE! Just a communion! This is my PRAYER! (MONOLOGUE BRIDGE - Music cuts to a single, pulsing synth tone) You think you understand pain? You don't. You visit it. I live there. Every scar is a signature. A promise. You want a war? I am the grenade... and the pin was pulled long ago. You're not fighting a man. You're fighting a consequence. Now... come on. Collect. (MEGA FINALE - Full chaotic blast) CHORUS x2 (Gang Vocals) PAINT MY FACE! WITH THE SCARS I CHASE! I'M THE MARTYR! OF THE RECKLESS PACE! THIS BOARD'S A WEAPON! MY HEART'S A BOMB! I'LL DIE TRYIN'! 'TIL I'M GONE! PAINT MY FACE! WITH THE SCARS I CHASE! I'M THE MARTYR! BURNING AT THE PACE! THIS BOARD'S A WEAPON! MY HEART'S A BOMB! I'LL DIE TRYIN'! 'TIL I'M GONE! GONE! GONE! (OUTRO TAG - Shouted over fading chaos) I FALL! SO I CAN RISE! NO FEAR! IN MY EYES! CAN'T KILL... WHAT'S ALREADY DYIN'! I TRUST NO ONE... AND THE WHOLE WORLD'S... CRYIN'. [Music ends with a final, sustained feedback screech, then abrupt silence.]
