[Intro - immediate distorted electric guitar riff, full drums enter] [Male Vocals - rhythmic rap] Cut through the mall 'cause the parking lot's faster, half the place closed since some corporate disaster, cinema's open, supermarket too, everything between them died in twenty-two. [Male Vocals - rhythmic rap] Escalator running with nobody around, food court dark but there's music playing loud, sale signs fading behind dusty glass, then I see a mannequin standing by the map. [Male Vocals - tense rap] Not in a window. Not near a store. Just standing there facing the automatic doors. No clothes. No face. One hand raised. [Male Vocals - quiet] That's fucking weird. [Female Vocals] Keep walking. [Verse 2] [Female Vocals - aggressive rhythmic rap] Take the west exit. Security gate down. Fine. Next one by the food court across town. Turn the corner— three mannequins there, lined up shoulder to shoulder like they've been waiting all year. [Female Vocals - building shout-rap] Go back the way we fucking came. First one's gone. Music stops. Lights change. Now there's six by the escalator, eight by the stairs, twelve blank faces and they're all turned here. [Female Vocals - rapid shout-rap] NORTH EXIT BLOCKED! SOUTH EXIT TOO! EVERY FUCKING HALL HAS A DIFFERENT CREW! THEY DON'T MOVE! THEY DON'T BLINK! THEY DON'T BREATHE! [Female Vocals - shouted] SO WHY THE FUCK ARE THEY CLOSER EVERY TIME WE LEAVE?! [Heavy guitar transition] [Male + Female Vocals - heavy chorus] DEAD MALL! AFTER DARK! EVERY EMPTY STORE HAS SOMETHING IN THE HALL! DEAD MALL! FIND A WAY OUT! IF THE PEOPLE ARE PLASTIC— [Male Vocals - shouted] DON'T WAIT AROUND! [Instrumental - driving guitar riff] [Male Vocals - extended rapid shout-rap] BACK THROUGH ELECTRONICS! CUT THROUGH SHOES! EVERY TURN WE TAKE THERE'S ANOTHER FUCKING CREW! ONE BY THE FOUNTAIN! FOUR BY THE BANK! ONE ON THE ESCALATOR COMING DOWN WITHOUT A STEP! [Male Vocals - rapid shout-rap] KEEP YOUR EYES FRONT! I'LL WATCH THE REAR! DON'T LET THOSE BLANK-FACED FUCKERS DISAPPEAR! STORE ON THE LEFT! GATE'S HALF HIGH! DROP TO THE FLOOR! CRAWL UNDER! MOVE! GO! SLIDE! [Male Vocals - shouted] GET UP! [Female Vocals - extended shout-rap] SPORTING GOODS! GOOD! NOW WE'VE GOT OPTIONS! GRAB A FUCKING BAT! I'M DONE BEING CAUTIOUS! LIGHTS START FLASHING! PA SYSTEM CRACKS! SOMETHING PLASTIC JUST RAN PAST THE BACK! [Female Vocals - rapid shout-rap] THAT ONE MOVED! I FUCKING SAW IT! DON'T GIVE ME THAT LOOK, YOU FUCKING SAW IT! HEAD TURNED LEFT! ARM CAME DOWN! NOW EVERY SINGLE ONE IS WALKING TOWARD US NOW! [Male Vocals - shouted] WALKING?! [Female Vocals - screamed] NOT ANYMORE! [Breakdown - crushing half-time guitar riff] [Male + Female Vocals - alternating shout-rap] [Male Vocals] RUN! [Female Vocals] FOOD COURT! [Male Vocals] BLOCKED! [Female Vocals] ARCADE! [Male Vocals] LOCKED! [Female Vocals] SERVICE HALL! [Male Vocals] THIS WAY! [Male Vocals - rapid shout-rap] FIFTY FUCKING FOOTSTEPS BUT NONE SOUND RIGHT! PLASTIC FEET SLAPPING UNDER FLICKERING LIGHTS! KICK THROUGH THE DOOR! EMPLOYEE HALL! FIRE EXIT SIGN AT THE END OF IT ALL! [Female Vocals - rapid shout-rap] PUSH THE BAR! NOTHING! PUSH AGAIN! CHAIN ON THE OUTSIDE— WHO THE FUCK DID THAT?! TURN AROUND! THE HALL'S FULL! NO MORE ROOM! [Female Vocals - screamed] I'M ABOUT TO BEAT THE SHIT OUT OF A SHOWROOM! [Heavy instrumental slam] [Male Vocals - aggressive shout-rap] FIRST ONE COMES! BAT TO THE CHEST! PLASTIC EXPLODES! FUCK THE REST! SECOND ONE DOWN! THIRD LOSES AN ARM! FOURTH GETS LAUNCHED THROUGH THE FIRE ALARM! [Female Vocals - furious shout-rap] ALARM GOES OFF! SPRINKLERS HIT! EVERY SECURITY GATE STARTS OPENING AT ONCE! THERE! MAIN EXIT! STRAIGHT AHEAD! [Female Vocals - screamed] MOVE YOUR FUCKING ASS BEFORE THE MALL WANTS US DEAD! [Male + Female Vocals - explosive chorus] DEAD MALL! AFTER DARK! NOW THE WHOLE DAMN PLACE IS COMING APART! DEAD MALL! GET OUT NOW! WE CAME FOR A SHORTCUT— [Male + Female Vocals - screamed] WE'RE TAKING THE LONG WAY OUT! [Instrumental - frantic guitar-driven escape] [Male Vocals - exhausted] Parking lot. We're out. [Female Vocals - breathless] Keep moving. [Male Vocals] They're not following. [Female Vocals] Good. [Male Vocals - relieved] Never cutting through there again. [Female Vocals] Agreed. [Pause] [Male Vocals - tense] Uh... [Female Vocals] What? [Male Vocals] Was that mannequin in the passenger seat before? [Female Vocals - shouted] DON'T OPEN THE FUCKING CAR! [Outro - immediate heavy guitar riff, abrupt stop]
