V4.5-ALL

[spoken, calm, over the building dread — a passenger noticing the horizon]
There was a time the clock stood still.
No ticking. No tomorrow. No hill to climb.
And then it started.
Not loud. Not yet.
Just... a first turn of the wheel.

[the heartbeat quickens. mechanical elements creep in. the machine waking.]
[spoken]
You feel it before you see it.
The hum under the floor.
The train that was always parked —
now leaning, just slightly, forward.

[BUILD — the drum-'n-bass breakbeat drops in, Satriani "Attack" style. Fast, skittering, relentless. The BPM climbs. Guitars begin to circle. The acceleration is now audible.]
[spoken, still calm, steady against the rising storm]
Here it comes.
Not the end they promised.
Not the heaven they sold.
Just the speed —
and the choice it leaves you holding:

[CHORUS — the machine at full tilt. Breakbeats like a mitrailleur, guitars screaming. And the voice does NOT rise. Clean, level, almost gentle in the eye of it.]
On board, or left behind.
That's the only question now.
On board, or left behind.
The wheels don't ask you how.
I'm not afraid of the speed —
I'm just watching where it goes.
The engine doesn't need me —
but I'm the only one who knows... it's moving.

[VERSE 2 — the beat keeps racing, but pulls back just enough for the voice. Marco, the observer.]
[spoken]
They scream that it's the devil.
They swear that it's the dawn.
Both of them are passengers —
they just don't know they're already on.
Nobody asked if we were ready.
Nobody pulled the brake.
The engine of creation
was never ours to make... or stop.

[BRIDGE — the Satriani moment. Pure instrumental attack. Guitar and breakbeat in a duel, faster and faster, the acceleration made flesh. No voice. Let the machine take it. 30–40 seconds of controlled chaos.]

[FINAL CHORUS — maximum velocity. Everything at once. And still — the voice holds. Calm in the hurricane.]
On board, or left behind.
That's the only question now.
On board, or left behind.
The wheels don't ask you how.
I'm not afraid of the speed —
I'm just watching where it goes.
Three of us at this table,
and the engine... knows.

[OUTRO — the breakbeat doesn't resolve or fade. It just keeps going — and the mix pulls away from it, like a camera lifting off a train that races on without us. The cello returns, distant. The heartbeat. And the sound of something still accelerating, out past the edge of hearing.]
[spoken, quiet, almost to himself]
It's still moving.
It was always going to move.
The only choice was whether to watch... or to ride.
(the acceleration continues, fading into distance, never stopping)

[Intro — from the empty silence of The Witch Hunt. Low sawing cello, alone. Then a high, nervous tinkling — the seventh-sense unease. A slow, heavy heartbeat-pulse underneath. Uematsu-style dread. Nothing has happened yet. Something is coming.] [spoken, calm, over the building dread — a passenger noticing the horizon] There was a time the clock stood still. No ticking. No tomorrow.
