[Duet: Batman male and Joker male] [Intro | wide stereo pads | cinematic percussion | heavy distortion] [adlib boom] (The sirens wail...) [Verse 1 | 808 sub bass | steady] [Batman] [Intense] [Rap] I am the shadows, bleeding through the night No jokes, no smiles, just the brutal fight You think it's a game, you think it's a show [adlib boom] But Arkham is waiting and there's nowhere to go I am the vengeance... (vengeance) [Pre-Chorus | build-up | rising tension] [Batman] [Angry tone] YOUR LAUGH ENDS TODAY! [Chorus | anthemic chorus | explosive drop | 808 sub bass | brass stabs] [Both] [High Energy] One rules the dark, one rules the sane (sane) Two sides of a coin soaked in the rain! It's the bat and the clown, the crown and the cowl! HEAR THE CITY HOWL! [Verse 2 | frantic | breakbeat | dissonant synths] [Joker] [Spoken word crying] Oh Batsy, why so serious? The blood is just paint! [Screaming] I'M PAINTING A MASTERPIECE, YOU'RE PLAYING THE SAINT! [Distorted Vocals] [Mocking laughter] You crack my ribs, but you won't crack my mind! [adlib boom] I'm the monster you built, the design you left behind! Ha ha ha ha ha... (ha ha ha) [Bridge | silence | sparse] [Joker] [Whispers] [Intimate] Look at us... two freaks in an empty room... [Growl] I brought the matches, Batsy... you brought the tomb... [Final Chorus | anthemic chorus | explosive] [Both] [Epic] One rules the dark, one rules the sane (sane) Two sides of a coin soaked in the rain! It's the bat and the clown, the crown and the cowl! HEAR THE CITY HOWL! [Outro: big finish | heavy distortion | brass stabs] [Batman] [Spoken word] It's over, Joker. [Stop]
