Flesh and Clay

V6

[Intro] (Primal wooden drum beating, low sub rumble) Bone, dirt, ash, rain. Wash the signal out of my brain. (Bass builds with distorted rumble) Hit it! [Verse 1] Ten thousand photos of people I don't love Looking for an answer from the satellites above Finger on the glass till the skin turns numb Waiting for a feeling that will never ever come I don’t want a profile, I don’t want a tag Toss my digital footprint in a heavy body bag I want the dirt, I want the rain Something that can shock this modern little pain. [Pre-Chorus] (Tribal drums speed up into rapid rolls, sub bass distortion increases) Drip, drop, hear the wood crack! There’s no turning back! Strip it away, strip it to the bone, Throw the little black mirror at the stone! [Chorus] Give me flesh! Give me clay! Wash the blue screen right away! Burn the signal, let it roar, I’m not a product on your digital floor! Flesh and clay! Bleed the wire! Throw the algorithm in the fire! [Post-Chorus Drop] (Brutal Gabber kick drop layered with organic tribal war drums) Fire! Burn the wire! Flesh! Clay! (Aggressive vocal roar) [Verse 2] Walk into the forest with bare muddy feet Finally escaping the concrete and the street No notifications buzzing in my palm Only cold thunder breaking through the calm Remember what it felt like before the big feed? Hunger was a stomach, not an endless little greed Take a deep breath of the rotting autumn leaves This is what a human being actually believes. [Pre-Chorus] (Tribal drums speed up into rapid rolls, sub bass distortion increases) Drip, drop, hear the wood crack! There’s no turning back! Strip it away, strip it to the bone, Throw the little black mirror at the stone! [Chorus] Give me flesh! Give me clay! Wash the blue screen right away! Burn the signal, let it roar, I’m not a product on your digital floor! Flesh and clay! Bleed the wire! Throw the algorithm in the fire! [Bridge] (Total silence except for heavy human breathing and heart thumping) Thump. Thump. Thump. No Wi-Fi out here. Just blood. (Massive tribal drum chant begins building to a violent crescendo) CHANT WITH ME! BURN! BURN! BURN! [Drum Climax] (Furious 150 BPM Gabber kick madness with primal wooden percussion) [Chorus] Give me flesh! Give me clay! Wash the blue screen right away! Burn the signal, let it roar, I’m not a product on your digital floor! Flesh and clay! Bleed the wire! Throw the algorithm in the fire! [Outro] (Rain pouring down heavily, fading footsteps on wet earth) I'm awake. I'm alive. (Mud splash sound) [End]
