[Intro] (Deep distorted bass, heartbeat turning mechanical) (Acoustic guitar replaced by a low, trembling drone) (Roulette wheel spinning too fast, then slowing violently) (Whispered, cracked: “You know where this ends…”) --- [Verse 1] The humming room dragged me inside Like a curse I carved into my own skin A week of work burning in my pocket And that stupid hope I’d finally win The dealer stared like he’d seen my fate And I felt my stomach drop too late. --- [Verse 2] My hands are shaking, the sweat is ice I’m chasing ghosts I’ve paid for twice The clock on the wall ticks like a threat Each second heavier with regret The shadows rise up from the floor And I’m begging the darkness for one more. --- [Chorus] Let the wheel spin, let the cards fall I’m a king of nothing, I’ve lost it all From a warm home life to this broken line Trading my soul for a dollar sign I’m going down, down, where the demons dwell Betting my life on a one‑way ticket to hell. --- [Verse 3] Midnight hit like a closing fist And I felt the truth I always resist My wedding ring? I laid it down Like a man who knows he’s already drowned The ball spun wild like a mocking scream Then stopped on the number that killed my dream. --- [Bridge] (Music explodes: distorted guitars, pounding drums, breathless tension) Empty pockets, empty chest The devil’s hands don’t give no rest I sold the house, I sold the years Now I’m drowning in my own damn tears (Shouted, breaking voice: DOUBLE OR NOTHING! TAKE WHAT’S LEFT OF ME!) --- [Guitar Solo] (Slide guitar screaming, bending downward like metal tearing) --- [Verse 4 – La caduta finale] The exit sign bleeds a violent red And I see hell glowing in my head I pawned my future, I pawned my name And the fire whispers I’m to blame The floorboards crack, the heat pours through And something below is calling me too. --- [Outro – L’ABISSO SI APRE] The lights go out, the doors slam shut My shadow melts into the soot The ground splits open beneath my feet A furnace roaring, hungry, deep… (Fading, distorted, echoing) *The house always wins… And now it drags me under…* (Final sound: A coin drops… then a roar of flames swallowing everything.)
