[Intro: Creepy Music Box & Vinyl Scratches] (Slow, melancholic music box playing a lullaby) (Faint sound of a heartbeat monitor, abruptly cut by a heavy vinyl scratch) [Verse 1: Whispered, tense vocals] Four years in the shadows since the memory was wiped A ghost in the city, swinging through the night I watched her kiss another, swallowed down the pain Standing by the matriarch’s stone in the freezing rain I wrote a letter to the love that I can never send Isolated, suffocating, waiting for the end But the blood in my veins started changing the design The thread grows from the bone, I'm crossing the line [Pre-Chorus: Building aggression] A chemical cage on my wrist to lock it away! I brutalized the brute, I saw the predator play! A phantom in the skull is hopping body to body Looking for a ghost in a rusted vent! Get out of my head! [Chorus: Explosive, screaming Nu Metal vocals] GET OUT OF MY HEAD! (The psychic ghost is creeping in!) FORGOTTEN AND DEAD! (Where does the monster begin?!) I took the collar off to fight the emerald rage! I let the mind-walker out of her cage! I saved the city but I lost the man! I’m mutating into something you can’t understand! [Verse 2: Syncopated, rhythmic delivery] She possessed the girl, read the letter I hid Forced my hand to break the universal grid A sister dead in the dark, a tragedy of the state I dropped the psychic shields, let her absorb the hate Showed her the memory of the grave, the love I was given But the sniper in the distance was already driven The crosshairs locked on, the trigger was pulled I took the hollow-point lead to save the soul of the world! [Pre-Chorus: Building aggression] A chemical cage on my wrist to lock it away! I brutalized the brute, I saw the predator play! A phantom in the skull is hopping body to body Looking for a ghost in a rusted vent! Get out of my head! [Chorus: Explosive, screaming Nu Metal vocals] GET OUT OF MY HEAD! (The psychic ghost is creeping in!) FORGOTTEN AND DEAD! (Where does the monster begin?!) I took the collar off to fight the emerald rage! I let the mind-walker out of her cage! I saved the city but I lost the man! I’m mutating into something you can’t understand! [Bridge: Spoken word into guttural roar] (Heavy, slow breathing, hospital monitors beeping rhythmically) I woke up in the ward. The sniper apologized. They said I survived. They said I healed. But they don't know what happened when the collar came off. When the bullet pierced the chest... the boy didn't survive. The thread took over the bone. The venom digested the heart. (Music stops completely) I AM THE HIVE! [Breakdown: Heavy drop-tuned guitars, chaotic turntables] GO! (Frantic scratching, crushing drop-A groove) THE HUMAN IS DEAD! EIGHT EYES IN THE DARK! WEARING HIS SKIN! WEARING HIS FACE! [Chorus: Maximum intensity] GET OUT OF MY HEAD! (There's nothing left of him inside!) FORGOTTEN AND DEAD! (The human consciousness has died!) I took the collar off to fight the emerald rage! Now the predator is out of the cage! I saved the city but I killed the man! I’M SOMETHING THAT YOU’LL NEVER UNDERSTAND! (NEVER UNDERSTAND!) [Outro: Fading feedback, isolated bassline] (Eerie, crawling bassline, discordant turntable squeals) I walk up to my old brother in the street... I extend my hand. We do the secret handshake. He smiles, thinking his friend is back... But my skin is cold. He doesn't know the boy is dead. (Whispered, demonic layering) Only the spider is smiling back... (Abrupt silence)
