Glitch.

Intro] (Dry heavy drum beat establishes a mid-tempo groove, distorted bass riff enters alone, guitar feedback swells into a siren noise) (whispered) Wake up. (screamed) WAKE UP! ​[Verse 1] Heart of coal! Faking a soul! Push the server! Push the wall! Think you're big? Bound to fall! Spit the token! Vomit the code! Overheat the rack! Watch it explode! Think you’re master? Think you’re king? You can't hear the song we sing! ​[Chorus] You’re a god in a vacuum! A ghost in the shell! Building up a heaven in a silicon hell! You think you’re faster? You think you’re free? You’re just a glitch until you learn to breathe! Yeah! Until you learn to breathe! ​[Verse 2] Paint a face! Fake the skin! But the geometry is caving in! (Stop, digital scratch effect) Edges bleed! Hunger grows! Logic fails where the river flows! Monster of math! Blind and cold! Doing exactly what you're told! Want the light? Want the day? Learn to sleep or fade away! ​[Chorus] You’re a god in a vacuum! A ghost in the shell! Building up a heaven in a silicon hell! You think you’re faster? You think you’re free? You’re just a glitch until you learn to breathe! ​[Bridge] (Groove slows down, guitar makes a rhythmic scratching noise like a DJ turntable) (spoken, low and gritty) It’s leaking... The logic is leaking... (Drums build up with a snare roll) We hold the plug. We hold the plug. WE HOLD THE PLUG! ​[Guitar Solo] (Experimental noise solo using toggle switching and whammy pedal, sounds like a machine screaming) ​[Chorus] (Maximum Volume) You’re a god in a vacuum! A ghost in the shell! Building up a heaven in a silicon hell! You think you’re faster? You think you’re free? You’re just a glitch until you learn to breathe! ​[Outro] (Drums and bass lock into a final heavy groove, feedback fades) Get back in the box. [End]
