[Intro - distant surf, amp hum, pick scrape] [Fast tremolo surf guitar enters] [Drums slam in] Hey! [Verse 1 - fast surf punk] Speakers leaning off the railing Red lights flashing, nobody bailing Salt in the air, amps running hot Somebody yelled, "Turn it up!" So we did. Boardwalk shaking under our feet Kick drum fighting with the concrete High tide climbing past the signs Guess the ocean wants in tonight [Pre-Chorus - rising tension] Watch the water Watch the wall Watch it rise— We don't care at all! [Chorus - shouted gang vocals] BREAKWATER RIOT! Turn it up until the shoreline shakes BREAKWATER RIOT! Let the whole damn seawall break Hands up! Heads down! Here comes another wave BREAKWATER RIOT! Make some noise and misbehave! [Build - drums accelerating, guitar riff chopped into shorter fragments] Hey! Hey! Hey! HEY! [DROP 1 - massive halftime dubstep] [Huge sub bass] [Distorted bass growls answer the main surf guitar riff] [Guitar keeps stabbing through the drop with heavy spring reverb] [Instrumental - 16 bars] [Verse 2 - faster, rougher] Neon buzzing, breakers crashing Cheap sunglasses, strobes still flashing Someone lost a shoe somewhere Nobody's stopping to look for it Saltwater running through the crowd Every wave just makes us louder Warning sirens down the pier Perfect! Turn 'em up so we can't hear! [Pre-Chorus] Watch the water Watch the wall Watch it rise— ONE MORE TIME! [Chorus] BREAKWATER RIOT! Turn it up until the shoreline shakes BREAKWATER RIOT! Let the whole damn seawall break Hands up! Heads down! Here comes another wave BREAKWATER RIOT! Make some noise and misbehave! [Breakdown - drums cut suddenly] [Clean dripping surf guitar] [Ocean ambience] [Low sub pulse slowly fades in] Lead Vocal, half-spoken: You hear that? [Pause] That's not thunder. [Massive snare fill] [BUILD 2 - chopped vocal and guitar] Break— Break— Break— BREAKWATER! [FINAL DROP - biggest section] [Surf guitar and distorted dubstep bass play the exact same riff in unison] [Halftime drums with double-time punk fills] [Gang vocals between bass hits] HEY! HEY! BREAKWATER! RIOT! [Lead guitar solo over the drop] [Second half adds octave guitar harmony and heavier sub bass] [Final Chorus - full band] BREAKWATER RIOT! Turn it up until the shoreline shakes BREAKWATER RIOT! Let the whole damn seawall break Hands up! Heads down! Here comes another wave BREAKWATER RIOT! MAKE SOME NOISE— [Hard stop] [One enormous bass hit] [Outro - guitar feedback, distant surf, collapsing drum kit noise]
