[Intro – Instrumental] [Whispered Entry] Battement… Don’t name it yet [Verse 1] I heard a soft music crawling my spine Neon bruises keeping time Not a song, more a twitch Something holy, something glitched [Build] Heartbeat stuttering, vinyl crack Static kisses bite me back Lights go feral, floor gets thin Let the trembling begin [Chorus (FULL SUNG — FALSETTO → BELT)] Are you stupid, are you crazy Are you wired or just lazy Are you living, are you hiding Is your pulse still trying, trying Move your doubt, shake your skin Tell me where your fire’s been [Verse 2 – phrasing, half-spoken] The mirror sweats when I grin Stars blink wrong, count me in I chase myself through the bass Lose my name, keep my face [Pre-Drop] Battement — drum in my teeth Breathing smoke, swallowing beats Hands up, fear melts down Sweat baptizes the sound [DROP – chant / call-response, club ritual] Alive? (alive!) Or surviving? (surviving!) Feel it? (feel it!) Or denying? (denying!) [Chorus – distorted synths] Are you stupid, are you crazy Are you shattered, shiny, hazy Are you breathing or just posing Is your spark still open, open [Bridge – Breakdown] (Hammond takes over, pitch bends, tape wobble) Panic tastes like sugar rust Soft decay and burning trust Petals wired to broken chrome Dance the fear until it’s home [Freak Section – percussive vocals] Ha — ha — hush Hit the floor, don’t think too much Clap it wrong, bend the groove Lose control to learn to move [Final Chorus / euphoric art pop] Are you stupid, are you crazy Are you holy, bored, or hazy If the dark begins to bloom Dance it back into the room [Outro – breath] Battement fading into heat Pulse survives inside the beat
