[Spoken Word Intro – Survivor Voice] [Instruction: deep growl, echo, layered industrial noise] The world is broken… streets run red with the fallen… We didn’t come to save it. We came to take what’s left. [Instruction: growl build] Silent Scythe!!! [Intro – Industrial Riff & Percussion] [Instruction: ultra-low tuned chug, mechanical percussion, drones, distant explosions] [Verse 1] Ash and rubble choke the sky, the afflicted crawl below, Bones crunch underfoot, fires burn where the weak won’t go. We ride through shattered cities, steel beasts in line, [Instruction: layer chugging guitars & growl] Silent Scythe!!! Blood falls thick, chaos divine. [Verse 2] Broken towers, empty streets, shadows twist and writhe, We hunt the scavengers because they mirror us inside. Engines roar, metal screams, our hunger can’t be tamed, [Instruction: aggressive palm-muted chug, industrial clang] Silent Scythe!!! Through the dead and dying, we carve our name. [Chorus] Sky split open, tanks grind flesh, Silent Scythe!!! Addicted to the harvest, Silent Scythe!!! [Bridge] Through the smog and steel, the world screams our creed, No rest, no surrender, only need feeding need. Every shadow hides a cache, every alley hides a lie, [Instruction: echoing industrial growls, prepare hostile drop] Silent Scythe!!! [Verse 3] Looting, raiding, chaos reigns where we tread, Not for glory or gold, but the ache in our head. Engines thunder, cannons blaze, the afflicted scatter wide, [Instruction: double-time d-beat, growls, chug guitar] Silent Scythe!!! Even death can’t make us satisfied. [Chorus] Sky split open, tanks grind flesh, Silent Scythe!!! Addicted to the harvest, Silent Scythe!!! [Outro – Call and Response] [Instruction: echoing growls, industrial feedback, ambient decay] Silent Scythe!!! [SURVIVOR] “Through the dead we ride!” Silent Scythe!!! [SURVIVOR] “We take till nothing’s left!” [Instruction: build to hostile final drop, all layers peak] [Musical Outro] [Instruction: fade into industrial drones, ultra-low chug, feedback] [Final whispered growl, distant:] Silent… Scythe… [Fade to END]
