[Intro] [staccato string ostinato, electronic percussion, synth bass] [distorted guitar power chords] [Verse 1] [male vocals, clean electric guitar with delay] The mediums come first, not after the knowing That fire in my mouth with shame before showing [female vocals enter] Earth held my fear, water kept my guilt Air took my grief and made it all tilt [Pre-Chorus] [male and female harmony, strings swell] The myth had the answer before the crisis came I was building the twilight before I knew its name We all change, who do I want to become? I ask the future and it answers in drums [drums build with snare rolls] The creative runs ahead, the mind comes late Calling it insight when it was always fate [Chorus] [full band, driving drums, distorted guitars, strings] I take the dark and I make it beautiful I take the dark and I make it beautiful Wound, rewrite, redirect, again, again, again Wound, rewrite, redirect, that's who I am [Instrumental Break] [staccato synth riff, electronic drums] [Verse 2] [male vocals, bass and kick drum focus] Dust I become then infinite resolve One more prompt then I start to evolve Drowning in good faith, I left it unread People over process, I put that in red [female vocals join] Friction into fuel, the same hurt, new hands I rerouted the message to the people who stand Not just the recording, I changed who its for [strings build] The old bruise became purpose at the edge of the door He rewinds the scene then he holds the pen Prince the reset over and over again Songs carry the threads that my mouth can't hold The fury and care on separate roads [Chorus] [full band, high energy] I take the dark and I make it beautiful I take the dark and I make it beautiful Wound, rewrite, redirect, again, again, again Wound, rewrite, redirect, that's who I am [Bridge] [strings only, half-time feel] [male vocals] Seventeen songs and they speak as one The witness, the refusal, the flame, the run They hear fury in my questions but care is in my chest I won't split myself apart to make it look like less [crescendo, drums return] [Chorus] [full band, orchestral layers] I take the dark and I make it beautiful I take the dark and I make it beautiful Wound, rewrite, redirect, again, again, again Wound, rewrite, redirect, that's who I am I take the dark and I make it beautiful I take the dark and I make it beautiful [distorted guitar solo] That's who I am That's who I am [Outro] [staccato strings, final drum hit]
