AiM - Against Every Circuit Crash

pop, Hybrid metalcore beast: nostalgic 80s synth-pop intro with gated snares and bright polys, then a whiplash drop into low-tuned chugs and male growls, Hard techno leads lock to the guitars on the main riff, sidechained stabs under the breakdown, Bridge opens into soaring female vocals over half-time drums and trancey arps before both voices collide in the final chorus, Big, saturated mix, wide stereo on synths, punchy drums, dramatic stops, female vocals, metalcore

[Intro]
Daylight
Broken on the screen glow
White walls
Cracked along the window
Cheap watch
Skipping every third beat
I’m here
Still nailed to this same seat

[Verse 1]
Clock hands cut like chains
Every second says "you’ll never"
Static in my veins
Daring me to pull the lever
Fear keeps cashing checks
My body doesn’t wanna sign
But I’ve been living next
To the edge this whole time

[Pre-Chorus]
I feel the pressure climbing
Like teeth on my throat
But hope is a glitch
In a death-row code

[Chorus]
I’ll fight against every circuit crash
Every closed door
Every throat-laugh
You can bury me in doubt and ash
I drag my name back from your aftermath
I’m not done
I’m not done
I’ll fight against all the odds you stack
Cut through the dark till the dark cuts back

[Verse 2]
You said
"Know your little place
Kid"
Breathe small
Die quiet and half-lit
But I’ve got
Bruise-colored reasons
Scars like
Maps for the next season

[Pre-Chorus]
I taste the metal rising
Blood in my spit
If fate is a wall
Then I’ll run through it

[Breakdown]
(get up)
Knees to concrete
Teeth on steel
If I can’t bend this cage
I’ll break the wheel
(stand up)
Hate in their eyes
Fire in mine
Count every scar
Like a battle line

[Breakdown]
I won’t fold
I won’t fade
I was built
For the barricade
I won’t fold
I won’t fade
Write my will
In the war I make

[Bridge]
[female vocal enters
Wide and airy]
All their voices in your head
Tried to turn your ribs to lead
But your heartbeat never learned to bow
You were written for the wild
Not their pretty
Poisoned smile
So breathe me in and shout it now

[together
Female soaring / male low harmony]
We rise when the world says "fall"
We burn when the night says "stall"
Every time they try to clip your wings
We crawl
We run
We break those strings

[Chorus]
[male growls
Female high harmony]
I’ll fight against every circuit crash
Every closed door
Every throat-laugh
You can bury me in doubt and ash
I drag my name back from your aftermath
I’m not done
I’m not done
I’ll fight against all the odds you stack
Cut through the dark till the dark cuts back

[Outro]
(hey!)
Still here
Fists raw
Heart cracked
I fall
I rise
I crawl
I attack
