Aural Sleep - Count Every Flaw
[Intro – eerie clean guitar with delay, distant feedback, whispered paranoid tone] Turn it off, turn it off, turn it off.... You're coming with me. [Short instrumental interlude – drums enter, tension rising] [Chorus – fast tempo, explosive entry, high-pitched melodic vocal with screamed energy] Nobody likes the noises in my head, Over me (OVER ME!) Nobody hates the voices in my head More than me (MORE THAN ME!) Every night I pray for silence, Aural sleep (AURAL SLEEP!) Every night they always find me, Between the winks (IN BETWEEN!) [Post Chorus – chaotic groove, stop/start hits, panic building into shouts] Can't turn it off (TURN IT OFF! TURN IT OFF!) Let me be, Change channel (TURN IT OFF! TURN IT OFF!) Same old thing, Somebody turn it off (TURN IT OFF! TURN IT OFF!) for my sanity, Can't turn it off, Turn it off!... [SCREAM] So you're coming with me! [Verse 2 – spazzy riff, erratic rhythm, twitchy vocal delivery with emotional cracks] Hive minded? Deaf blinded. Behind it? Can't find it, Can't fight it, I like it, I like it!... [drop to strained whisper] ...I lie! [Chorus – full energy return, melodic hook with layered screams] Nobody likes the noises in my head, Over me (OVER ME!) Nobody hates the voices in my head More than me (MORE THAN ME!) Every night I pray for silence, Aural sleep (AURAL SLEEP!) Every night they always find me, Between the winks (IN BETWEEN!) [Post Chorus – heavier hits, aggressive shouted delivery] Can't turn it off (TURN IT OFF! TURN IT OFF!) Let me be, Change it! (TURN IT OFF! TURN IT OFF!) Same old thing, Somebody turn it off (TURN IT OFF! TURN IT OFF!) for my sanity, Can't turn it off, Turn it off!... [Bridge – half-time, crushing emotional section, pained vocal breaking into screams] Don't you, Dare fall asleep... It's not fair... To have to stay awake with me! You have to stay awake with me! I can't sleep with all the screams (NOT FAIR!) You have to stay awake for me, You have to shut them up, Only you can shut them up! [Bridge Variation – stripped back, eerie build, soft trembling vocal growing unstable] Where'd you go... You left me alone... It's getting louder, Getting louder, Even louder, It's so loud! [building scream] SO LOOOOUUUD!!! [Final Chorus – biggest chaotic energy, layered melodic and screamed vocals] Nobody likes the noises in my head, Over me (OVER ME!) Nobody hates the voices in my head More than me (MORE THAN ME!) Every night I pray for silence, Aural sleep (AURAL SLEEP!) Every night they always find me, Between the winks! [Outro – instruments ringing, exhausted broken vocal] Turn it off, Turn it off! (LET ME BE) Turn it off, Turn it off! (SAME OLD THING) Turn it off, Turn it off! (Bye sanity!) Can't turn it off Turn it off! For me. [Instruments ring out, feedback swells, fade out] [End]
