[Intro [Fast Heavy Guitar, Heavy Drum Blasts, Low Guttural Screaming Male Vocals] Sitting here alone, all by myself! Wishing I was someone else! [1, 2, 3 Guitar & Drum] My mind is fighting itself! Humanity’s nothing but a flesh-eating virus! [Verse 1 [Heavy orchestral strings swell in the background as the guitars switch to a fast, aggressive technical riff. Explodes into aggressive male mid-range screams.] Can’t be seen, and can’t be heard! These thoughts keep coming and going. Why the fuck are they burying me alive?! Clawing the inside of this coffin! Splinters digging into my skin like knives! Into the veins of a lost soul, drag me further down, See me take the devil’s throne. [Verse 2 [Massive, theatrical, and cinematic. A huge, catchy melodic hook w/ driving double-bass drums and soaring guitar leads. Mid Aggressive Screams] [Female Vocals] Stomach twisting, time wasting away! Coexisting with the screams inside my head! This hell can only be tolerated for so long! [Male & Female Vocals Both] Before the demons take control! Lashing out, the flames of violence, Engulfing the heretic at the stake! [Bridge [The heavy guitars suddenly drop out, leaving an eerie, isolated piano melody. The instruments slowly build back up w/ a ticking clock sound effect before dropping into a massive, earth-shattering breakdown on the final line. Vocals Shift Dynamically: Clean Female Vocals Into Piercing Male Screams.] [Clean Female Vocals] Wanting so bad to take back control of what I used to be. Abandonment, neglect, inked into my heart. [Clean Female Vocals] The needles just distracting me from what lurks beneath. [Mid-Scream Into High] Just let this reality fade, [Low Guttural Scream] Now I am become death! [Outro [The Amity Affliction style mixed w/ theatrical symphonies. The breakdown transitions into a melodic, sweeping guitar solo accompanied by soft orchestral strings. The instruments gradually strip away until only a fading synth pad remains.] The veil worn by this haunting image, Covering the reflection of my sanity. Just wanting to feel the hand on my shoulder, YET I CHOOSE TO REMAIN! Let the screams fade. And the voices surrender [Male Scream W/ Clean Female Vocal Underlay] To the serenity of what keeps me standing on this earth. [Male Scream Fade Out] I choose to remain...
