[Intro: low Moog warble; Boss OC-2 octave fuzz sweep; palm-muted detuned guitars; Marshall/Peavey amp tone; filtered snare and kick rise into tight groove] [Verse 1] Inhale the static of yesterday’s mind Wires constrict, coil and bind Veins twitch sharp — chemicals flare Rats in a maze, chasing ghosts through the air [Pre-Chorus] [filter sweep] Whispers coil on rusted leaves [stereo widen]Corroded thoughts short circuitry [Chorus] [Soaring Vocals] (Whoa Ohh!) Parasitic dreams infect my head Scream inside — I can’t pretend Crawling deep beneath my skin These thoughts won’t let me sleep again [stereo widen] Chewing through the nerves I steal Till all that’s left is cold and steel [Verse 2] False calm drips from the needle’s kiss Skull cracks wide — I bleed through hiss Your voice’s acid melts my spine This flesh was never truly mine [Pre-Chorus] [whisper FX pan L/R] Whispers coil on rusted leaves [stereo widen] Corroded thoughts short circuitry [Chorus] (Whoa Ohh!) Parasitic dreams infect my head Scream inside — I can’t pretend Crawling deep beneath my skin These thoughts won’t let me sleep again Chewing through the nerves I steal Till all that’s left is cold and steel [Bridge – Halftime Groove] [half-speed drop] Dig it out [instrumental dropout] Burn it clean Kill the part that makes me dream (Let it die) [ring mod FX] (Let it rot) [glitch-delay, lowpass FX] I’m everything the cure forgot [Silence] [Climactic Final Chorus] [re-intro motif] Parasitic dreams infect my head Scream inside — I can’t pretend Crawling deep beneath my skin These thoughts won’t let me sleep again Chewing through the nerves I steal Till all that’s left is cold and steel [Outro – Glitch/fade] [mono collapse] The tape keeps running but no one’s home [stereo widen] Just static and skin, alone with the tone [dial tone FX] [Fade out]
