[Intro] [faint crowd murmur] [applause fades in, off-time] [Verse 1] Lights come up Seats fill in Hands are ready Let’s begin You don’t touch You don’t speak You just watch And lean in [Pre-Chorus] Eyes locked forward Hands on cue You don’t act You see it through [Chorus] Studio audience Studio violence Hands together Internal silence Studio audience Studio violence Every clap Is compliance [Verse 2] You stay seated You stay clean Nothing stains you Hate machine You don’t push You don’t pull You keep watching While it breaks [Pre-Chorus] Eyes still forward Hands still true You know better You stay glued [Chorus] Studio audience Studio violence Hands together Internal silence Studio audience Studio violence Every clap Is compliance [Bridge] They don’t strike They don’t kill They approve And that’s enough They don’t touch They don’t bleed They just stay And shrug it off [backup voices] (clap on cue) (clap on cue) [Breakdown] One Two Three (wait) [Final Chorus] Studio audience Studio violence Hands together Internal silence Studio audience Studio violence Every clap Is compliance [Outro] [applause cuts hard] [sudden silence]
