(Tempo: Slow, brooding build-up. Distorted bassline.) (Intro - Spoken in a low, gritty whisper) I let the baggage build. I let the pressure take it all. And now it’s broke again. I just wanna break out. (Verse 1 - Rhythmic, tense, building speed) Concrete shoulders carrying the weight of the dead Too much baggage piling up inside of my head I don't wanna feel this way, the foundation shakes I let it build too high and now the damn thing breaks Again. Yeah, it broke again. I’m fractured into pieces of a hollowed-out man. I run these solo builds, laying every brick in the shade Staring through the iron of a self-made cage! (Pre-Chorus - Rising intensity, guitars swelling) I’m sinking in the quicksand of my own design Losing the grip on what used to be mine I don't wanna feel this way... I don't wanna feel this way! GET ME OUT OF THIS CAGE! (Chorus - Explosive, heavy, full distortion - scream/singing) I’m a wolf out on my own! No pack! No one to get my back! I feel so broken down, but I’m ready to attack! All I wanna do is break out! (Break out!) Alone in this hell, but I’m holding my own! I run this solo, bleeding out on the throne! I just wanna break out! (Verse 2 - Bouncy, aggressive groove) After every victory, they hand me the crown Solid gold on my head, but I watch the rest frown They hate the isolation, they don't see the toll They don't see the rusted iron crushing my soul Just out here trying to find the peace that I lack With a target on my chest and the world on my back I'm surrounded by the ghosts of what I used to be Chasing down the phantom of a feeling of free! (Pre-Chorus - Rising intensity, guitars swelling) I’m sinking in the quicksand of my own design Losing the grip on what used to be mine I don't wanna feel this way... I don't wanna feel this way! GET ME OUT OF THIS CAGE! (Chorus - Explosive, heavy, full distortion) I’m a wolf out on my own! No pack! No one to get my back! I feel so broken down, but I’m ready to attack! All I wanna do is break out! (Break out!) Alone in this hell, but I’m holding my own! I run this solo, bleeding out on the throne! I just wanna break out! (Bridge - Slows down abruptly. Creepy, dissonant guitar notes. Vocals start as a mutter, building into a guttural scream) Redesign my mind... I gotta redesign my mind. To find the peace I once had. To find the peace I once had. Redesign my mind! REDESIGN MY MIND! Turn the sorrow to rage! Burn down the walls of the cage! Where is my balance?! WHERE IS MY BALANCE?! (Guitar Breakdown - Heavy, drop-tuned, syncopated chugging) (Final Chorus - Maximum energy and desperation) I’m a wolf out on my own! No pack! No one to get my back! I feel so broken down, but I’m ready to attack! All I wanna do is break out! (Break out!) Alone in this hell, but I’m holding my own! I run this solo, bleeding out on the throne! I just wanna break out! (Outro - The heavy instruments abruptly cut out. Just a clean, echoing guitar) Just trying to find my peace. Trying to find my balance. I need to find myself again. I need to find myself again. (Deep exhale) Find myself... again.
