[Tempo: 120 BPM] [Time Signature: 27/8] [Arrangement: Modular analog synthesizers, 27/8 odd meter sequencer, complex polyrhythmic synth pads, syncopated bass drone] [Verse 1] [Key: C Polytonal] [Arrangement: Asymmetrical 27/8 synth sequence, dark spoken-word vocal delivery] [Cmaj7#11] A gold needle sews the sky Bleeding [F#m11] copper down the throat of dark The clock [Bbm7] melts numbers off its face Grease where [Eb7b9] hours were marked in place [Cmaj7#11] I was safe inside my tears Holding [F#m11] ghosts of my ruined [Cmaj7#11] years [Pre-Chorus] [Key: F Minor Modulated] [Arrangement: Accelerating sequence pulses, shifting accent patterns] [Fm11] Now the horizon becomes a blade [Eaug] Cutting through every shadow I made [Amaj7] The sun is a wide and open eye [Db7#9] Pouring bleach across the sky [Chorus] [Key: Eb Half-Diminished] [Arrangement: Driving 27/8 syncopated synth arpeggio, full vocal belt] [Ebm7b5] Turn off the yellow light! [D7b9] Blow out the morning sun! [Gmaj7#5] I am not ready to move [C#m11] on! [Ebm7b5] Cruel hope is a violent shock [D7b9] Stripping locks off the heavy wooden door [Gmaj7#5] I do not want this morning light— [C#m11] (Soaring belt) Drag me back into the safety of night! [Verse 2] [Key: C Polytonal] [Arrangement: Staccato modular pulses, cold polyrhythmic textures] [Cmaj7#11] Yellow beams climb up the chair Cold [F#m11] geometry in air [Bbm7] Paints over bruises in neon white Forcing [Eb7b9] memory and sight [Cmaj7#11] The room holds yesterday's war Light shines [F#m11] straight onto the [Cmaj7#11] floor [Pre-Chorus] [Key: F Minor Modulated] [Arrangement: Escalating metric complexity, opening synth filter] [Fm11] Now the horizon becomes a blade [Eaug] Cutting through every shadow I made [Amaj7] The sun is a wide and open eye [Db7#9] Pouring bleach across the sky [Bridge] [Key: Ab Minor Major] [Arrangement: Floating polyrhythmic lead, disorienting synth delays] [Abmmaj7] Disorienting gold glow [D9] Demanding I heal below [F#maj7] You cannot patch a broken bone With [G7b9] sunlight on heavy stone [Abmmaj7] The morning screams to arise While [D9] ash falls behind my eyes [Chorus] [Key: Eb Half-Diminished] [Arrangement: Dynamic climax, intense 27/8 rhythmic accents, full wail delivery] [Ebm7b5] Turn off the yellow light! [D7b9] Blow out the morning sun! [Gmaj7#5] I am not ready to move [C#m11] on! [Ebm7b5] Cruel hope is a violent shock [D7b9] Stripping locks off the heavy wooden door [Gmaj7#5] I do not want this morning light— [C#m11] (Full dynamic wail) Drag me back into the safety of night! [Outro] [Key: C Polytonal] [Arrangement: Decaying odd meter sequence, trailing sub-bass, lingering ambient tail] [Cmaj7#11] The sun climbs higher now [F#m11] Bleaching shadows into white [Bbm7] Everything is far too bright An [Eb7b9] unwanted, cruel dawn [Cmaj7#11] Exposed in cold light [Cmaj7#11] [F#m11] [Bbm7] [Cmaj7#11] [End]
