[Intro] [Driving 4-on-the-floor kick beat, sharp synth bass line, heavy distorted guitar stabs entering on beat 3] [Verse 1] [Baritone vocal, tight overdrive filter] Painted on a grin to face the street Tread the gravel underneath my feet [Doubled Vocals] Holding up the mirror to the wall Waiting for the plaster sheet to fall Tucked the edges underneath the frame No one here remembers what I came to claim [Pre-Chorus] [Aggressive Whispered Vocals, Pulsing EBM Bass Synth] Pull the seams apart... Watch the color drain... Nothing real left in the vein... [Chorus] [Explosive Chorus Lift, Massive Industrial Guitars, Soaring Layered Vocals] Tear the fake skin right off my face! Leave no record of this place! I’m running out of breath inside the lie! Watching every copy fade and die! [Screamed Vocal Layer Underneath] FADE AND DIE! [Verse 2] [Single Vocal with Heavy Distortion FX, Punchy Snare] Counting every habit on my hands Shifting through the dry and heavy sands [Doubled Vocals] Wired shut and acting out the part Ticking like a cheap mechanical heart [Pre-Chorus] [Aggressive Whispered Vocals, Pulsing EBM Bass Synth] Pull the seams apart... Watch the color drain... Nothing real left in the vein... [Chorus] [Explosive Chorus Lift, Massive Industrial Guitars, Soaring Layered Vocals] Tear the fake skin right off my face! Leave no record of this place! I’m running out of breath inside the lie! Watching every copy fade and die! [Screamed Vocal Layer Underneath] FADE AND DIE! [Bridge] [Full stop, heavy synth sub-bass drop, electro-industrial percussion build] [Distorted Raspy Vocals] Strip the layers back! Nothing underneath! Biting down on iron teeth! [Full Band Harmonized Shout] BREAK THE CAST! BREAK THE CAST! [Chorus] [Explosive Chorus Lift, Full Power Wall of Sound] Tear the fake skin right off my face! Leave no record of this place! I’m running out of breath inside the lie! Watching every copy fade and die! [Screamed Vocal Layer Underneath] FADE AND DIE! [Outro] [Faded Whispered Double over pulsing synth bass] Just a fake skin... No record left... [Sudden sharp electronic cut]
