KURU

[Intro] [faint static, distant joyful laughter] ⸻ [Verse 1] You can’t kill me when we are all already dead. A corrosive contagion, devouring from inside your head. My prions already infected your mind. down from the root, through to your spine. If you have been listening, then it’s already well too late. So have this dance with me, and sing this ineffable serenade. ⸻ [Verse 2] A lullaby of the universe, how even the stars blot out. A gift given back and received by a God that you all dared cast out. This is no revenge; it’s the cost of what was paid. When you slammed your hammer into His nails, and laid Him in His grave. ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 1] As I said before… all in divine time. Yes, I loved your masks, every last one of them are mine. That part you thought you were someone else… really made my daze. Oh, how I loved the way you’d hold my gaze… ⸻ [Chorus 1] I told you, I held your soul, so precious in its mean. I only shake you awake, when I need to feel you scream. I’m the author of night terrors — until your name confess. And I rip out all that drains in your every faded breath. ⸻ [Verse 3] I can already feel myself, slamming my head against the moonbeam. Slipped behind the stitches, scripted within between. ⸻ [Selah / Interlude] [Long Selah pause – instruments breathe] ⸻ [Verse 4] An ancient final piece, of a tale long tucked away. A rock-a-bye memory compulsion, Oh what silly games we’d play… Look around you… You already know this to be true. All that is, and that ever was… was always just me and you… ⸻ [Verse 5] A broken concerto… with unwilling participation. A nihilistic vision, with a hope of anticipation. A problem without an answer— a textbook biological error. I’m not a virus, I am the end. The reputation repairer! ———— The King in Yellow!!!! ⸻ [Pre-Chorus 2] So sing with me, sweet entropy… the final act, but no solemn symphony. A grand finale of the will, the full truth of the red and blue pill. It never mattered which one you prefer; — you will always return to Her. ❤️‍🔥 ⸻ [Chorus 2] Every actor that wore my mask, turns to dust within the sand. No hourglass, no—more like a dusty picture frame. A prisoner of your own mind, while you rot away insane. ⸻ [Verse 6] Like a problem child casted off unwanted. A prion mind grinded until it stunted. A throat slit wide, like eyes foreshadowing eventuality. Like another soldier fallen as a battlefield fatality. ⸻ [Bridge] Like a problem child casted off unwanted… A prion mind folded inward until it stunted… Your fate cut wide, like eyes foreshadowing eventuality… Like another soldier fallen as a battlefield fatality… I’ll finish this with this…Finale… ⸻ [Final Chorus / Outro] I told you every new beginning has its already well-crafted end. But in the time we spent together… I was glad to call You my friend. And I’ll seek you out with all my heart until we meet…The End… ⸻ [Outro] [sad Kuru laugh dissolves into static]
