I am the Cold Machine (Syurp Vader’s Theme Song)

[Intro] [fingerpicked acoustic guitar] [Verse 1] [clean male vocals] The porch light swinging in a summer breeze Jared's laughing through the maple trees Teaching the boy how the knots get tied Teaching the boy how the knots get tied With nothing hidden and nothing inside Just a simple life, a cup of morning rain Before the shadows started dancing on the lane Before the crab began to whisper in the ear Painting the truth with a varnish of fear [Chorus] [distorted electric guitars enter, heavy drums] The mask clicks shut, the vision turns to black [cymbal crash] The mask clicks shut, the vision turns to black Cats is pulling strings in the downtown rock Cats is pulling strings in the downtown rock Giving me the lies that the truth forgot [Verse 2] I don't see the face behind the surreptitious shield I don't see the spirit on the battlefield Serpent arising, the conduit of hate Marching on the city, deciding on the fate I am the hammer, I am the cold machine Blind to the down, tear it apart [Guitar Solo] [distorted lead guitar with wah-wah effect, fast pentatonic runs and legato phrasing] [Bridge] [gritty vocals] The iron is cold where I used to have a heart [drum fill] [Guitar Solo Continued] [high-pitched melodic soloing, heavy rhythm guitar backing] [Chorus] But the pressure breaks, the stream comes through A sticky white wave, the gold and the blue Serpent Joe cuts the wires of the lie Lifting the heavy weight out of the sky [Outro] I see the eyes through the visor glass I see the boy as the illusions pass The crab is crawling back to the ocean floor We're not fighting in the shadows anymore [aggressive vocals] Serpent falls, but Jared starts to rise Sunlight clearing the smog from the skies Side by side, we're finally right [final power chord, feedback fade out]
