2012

Hip hop drum machine intro, Fiercely fast energetic hip hop, pop punk style mix, Rap flows are fast, Melodic chorus has lots of harmonies, Bridge is fast tempo, Drum machine bass drops that rattle the speakers, Drums hit hard on the 1 and the "and" of 2, building tension, Technical bass guitar, Off beat drum fills and low pitched guitars, Pop punk driving bass line, Fast drum cymbals create the energy

(Verse 1 - ELI, Fast, Highly Critical Rap Flow)

Remember the countdown? Remember the hype?

Felt like the last year under the moonlight

We were selling the doom, buying the disaster

Swore the world would stop, spinning faster and faster

Yeah, Twenty-twelve was supposed to be the great reset

The Mayan calendar said we'd pay our last debt

But the world didn't end, it just got streamlined, it got sold

The apocalypse was canceled, the forecast turned cold

We traded the drama for data, the chaos for the feed

The whole globe went online, planting a digital seed

(Pre-Chorus - CODY, Melodic Vocal, Building Intensity)

We keep looking back at the footage on the wall

Waiting for the sky to crack, waiting for the final call

We missed the moment, we missed the big event

The end of the world was subtle, on a notification sent

(Chorus - CODY & ELI, HUGE, Anthemic Pop-Punk Hook)

It was all a lie! Twenty-twelve! Just another promise broken

We missed the prophecy, the final words were never spoken

We wanted fire, we wanted rain, we wanted the big screen crash

But the world just kept spinning, and we kept spending our cash

The apocalypse was canceled! The show didn't drop

We just switched to high-def when the music refused to stop

(Verse 2 - ELI, Cynical, Focused Rap)

Look at the headlines, look at the fashion, the sound

Everything's recycled, nothing new on the ground

We look back at that year like it was the Golden Age

But it was just the prologue, turning the final page

We were dressing like heroes, dancing like we had no care

While the simulation started, we just stood right there

We thought the Mayan clock was the only thing to fear

Didn't realize the real end was already too near

They didn't need meteors, they didn't need a flood

Just a faster internet speed and a distraction in the blood

(Pre-Chorus - CODY, Melodic Vocal, Building Intensity)

We keep looking back at the footage on the wall

Waiting for the sky to crack, waiting for the final call

We missed the moment, we missed the big event

The end of the world was subtle, on a notification sent

(Chorus - CODY & ELI, HUGE, Anthemic Pop-Punk Hook)

It was all a lie! Twenty-twelve! Just another promise broken

We missed the prophecy, the final words were never spoken

We wanted fire, we wanted rain, we wanted the big screen crash

But the world just kept spinning, and we kept spending our cash

The apocalypse was canceled! The show didn't drop

We just switched to high-def when the music refused to stop

(Bridge)

Maybe the world did end, maybe we just didn't see

Maybe we're all ghosts from the past, still dancing aimlessly

We're living in the ruins of the future we were sold

It's just the same damn simulation, getting tragically old

(Chorus - CODY & ELI, HUGE, Anthemic Pop-Punk Hook)

It was all a lie! Twenty-twelve! Just another promise broken

We missed the prophecy, the final words were never spoken

We wanted fire, we wanted rain, we wanted the big screen crash

But the world just kept spinning, and we kept spending our cash

The apocalypse was canceled! The show didn't drop

We just switched to high-def when the music refused to stop
