[Intro](Heavy rhythmic bass starts alone, 4/4 kick drum)(Electronic scratching sounds)[Verse 1]Silk on my skin, fire in my veinsBreaking the silence, shaking the chainsI don’t need a crown to feel like a queenI’m the darkest vision that you’ve ever seenParis is burning under my feetCan you feel the fever? Can you feel the heat?[Pre-Chorus](Synths rising in pitch, tension building)One step for the gloryTwo steps for the fameThree steps for the girlWho forgot your name[Chorus](Bass drops deep, very groovy)I’m the velvet rebellion, the ghost in the machineLiving in a world that is silver and greenNo permission granted, no looking backWe’re the heart of the riot, dressed in blackOh, oh-oh, velvet rebellionOh, oh-oh, we own the sun[Verse 2](Minimalist beat, focus on the vocal rhythm)Flashlights blinking, frozen in timeEvery mistake is a beautiful crimeLipstick traces on a glass of champagneDancing like we’re never gonna feel any painThe rhythm is a weapon, the melody’s a trap[Pre-Chorus]One step for the gloryTwo steps for the fameThree steps for the girlWho forgot your name[Chorus]I’m the velvet rebellion, the ghost in the machineLiving in a world that is silver and greenNo permission granted, no looking backWe’re the heart of the riot, dressed in blackOh, oh-oh, velvet rebellionOh, oh-oh, we own the sun[Bridge](Percussion stops, only a distorted synth pad)[Spoken/Whispered]They try to cage the windThey try to dim the lightBut the velvet rebellionStarts... tonight.(Drum fill)[Chorus](Max energy, layering of vocals)I’m the velvet rebellion, the ghost in the machineLiving in a world that is silver and greenNo permission granted, no looking backWe’re the heart of the riot, dressed in black[Outro](Vocal repetitions: "Velvet... Rebellion...")(Aggressive bassline fading out slowly)[End]
