(Intro - Heavy, gritty guitar riff building up with a fast 4/4 drum beat)(Verse 1)Staring through the chain-link from the second floorCount the seconds till you walk right through the doorYou’re a painting in a gallery I can’t touchYeah, I think about you just a little bit too muchEverybody’s talking, but it’s just white noiseTrading stupid whispers with the other boysYou don’t even notice how the room goes stillStanding in your orbit against my own free will.(Pre-Chorus)And the walls are closing in, yeah, the air is getting thinAnd I’m choking on the patience that I’m wearing way too thin!(Chorus)Oh, Senpai, look at me! I’m right before your eyes!I’ll tear down every rival, I’ll cut them down to size!You’re breathing up my oxygen, you’re tangled in my headI’d rather see the whole world burning down and painted redThan watch you smile at anybody else!(Verse 2 - Driving bassline kicks in hard)Got a secret notebook wrapped in locking tapeEvery single schedule, every route and shapeSaw that girl come over, tried to catch your earWell, she won't be finishing the school year, my dear!It’s a reflex action, it’s a natural driveIf you want to keep me, she can't stay aliveBleach inside the bucket, fingerprints erasedAnother empty locker in an empty space!(Pre-Chorus)And the walls are closing in, yeah, the air is getting thinAnd I’m choking on the patience that I’m wearing way too thin!(Chorus)Oh, Senpai, look at me! I’m right before your eyes!I’ll tear down every rival, I’ll cut them down to size!You’re breathing up my oxygen, you’re tangled in my headI’d rather see the whole world burning down and painted redThan watch you smile at anybody else!(Bridge - Music drops out to a driving, muted palm-mute guitar, building into a scream)Are you watching? Are you listening?Can you see the way I’m glistening?With all the love I had to bleed to keep you safe from them!(Full band explosion - loud and aggressive)I AM YOUR ONLY FRIEND!I AM YOUR ONLY END!(Guitar Solo - Fast, soaring, melodic and angsty)(Chorus)Oh, Senpai, look at me! I’m right before your eyes!I’ll tear down every rival, I’ll cut them down to size!You’re breathing up my oxygen, you’re tangled in my headI’d rather see the whole world burning down and painted redThan watch you smile at anybody else!(Outro - Fast tempo crashes to a sudden stop on a heavy distorted chord, followed by a quiet, breathy spoken word)Mine.You're finally mine.(Feedback fades out)
