NO LITTLE PEOPLE IN MY HEAD

[INTRO – MACHINE HUM / SUB-DRONE / IRON STRIKE]
(Low industrial breath, feedback inhales, lone metal clang decays) I didn’t lose innocence—
I dissected it.
No gods crashed.
Just gravity giving way. [VERSE 1 – CLEAN, LOW, TIGHT RESTRAINT]
No bedtime whispers
No choir inside
No fragile fingers
Pulling the wires They preached “look within”
I stared too deep
Found only hollow rings
Singing the wrong creed Every echo begged mercy
Every impulse craved chains
I yanked the main breaker
Watched what endured the drain [PRE-CHORUS – DRUMS CREEP IN, TENSION COILS]
No deals with phantoms
No reply to the mob
If it buckles under pressure
It stays forever soft [CHORUS – CRUSHING OPEN RIFF, WIDE PALM-MUTES]
No little people in my head
No saints in the red
No little people in my head
No throne where I bled No little people in my head
No comfort misfed
No little people in my head
Just force
Just weight
Just dead [VERSE 2 – CLEAN EDGING INTO CRACKS]
Ripped the watcher off the wall
Tore the mask from the judge
Every “should” a loaded blade
Every “self” a festering grudge They labeled it healing
I named it static noise
Slapped a face on reflex
Pretended it had a voice I don’t cradle infants
I don’t anoint kings
I trace the fault lines
Sever what clings [PRE-CHORUS 2 – LOWER, CHOKED, HEAVIER]
I don’t hunt for “who I am”
I hunt what fractures first
I stand where structure
Actually bears the worst [CHORUS VARIATION – THICKER DISTORTION, LAYERED GROWLS]
No little people in my head
No jury to dread
No little people in my head
No fable I bred No little people in my head
No paradise ahead
No little people in my head
Just motion
Just load
Just spread [BRIDGE – HALF-TIME CRUSH, SPOKEN → ESCALATING GUTTURAL]
(Drums collapse to kick + floor tom, metallic clangs echo) I don’t comfort.
I stabilize. I don’t confess.
I calibrate. I don’t forgive impulses.
I choke them. (Pause—air thickens) Push the system—
consequence replies. Not rage.
Not virtue.
Physics. [BREAKDOWN – FULL STOP → ABRUPT DROP]
(Guitars strangle silence, then slam) No inner child
No inner war
No inner truth
Worth the scar I am not legion
I am not fractured
I am the edge
I enforce the fracture [SOLO – SLOW, BENT, FEEDBACK WAILS]
(Notes weep, stretch, dissolve into howling noise) [VERSE 3 – NEAR-WHISPER, INTIMATE, HAUNTED]
I outlived the hunger
To be seen
Outgrew the delusion
Of anyone within So spare me your voices
Your costumes to don
I became the front line
Because nothing responded [FINAL CHORUS – TOTAL WEIGHT, EMOTIONAL APEX, MULTI-LAYERED GROWLS]
No little people in my head
No saviors misled
No little people in my head
No lies playing dead No little people in my head
No soul to be fed
No little people in my head
Just pressure
Just pressure
Just pressure [OUTRO – STRIPPED BARE, FINAL CHORD BLEEDS]
(Feedback lingers, machine hum exhales into nothing) No audience.
No altar.
No witness. Just the storm
Knowing
Its vector. (End)
