[Spoken Word (gritty)]
“Some people pray for peace.
I pray for ignition.
Let the quiet learn fear."
[Intro - Instrumental]
[VERSE 1]
I like the smell when the wires get nervous
Neon veins under skin that’s worthless
Heartbeat ticking like a bad idea
Smile in the dark saying come here, come here
Fingertips itching, static in my teeth
Angels wear matches when they talk to me
I don’t want peace, I want thunder in bloom
I want that beautiful—BOOM!
[PRE-CHORUS 1]
Pressure in my ribs like a choir of drums
World on mute when the countdown hums
Light me up, let the bad thoughts zoom
Three… two… one…
[CHORUS 1]
I love the things that go BOOM!
Turn my bones into a red cartoon
Set my shadow dancing in the room
BOOM—BOOM—BOOM!
I love the way the sky says my name
Little god in a gasoline rain
Halo made of beautiful doom
BOOM—BOOM—BOOM!
[Verse 2]
Pocket full of sparks like stolen prayers
Laugh at the smoke climbing up the stairs
Mama said “boy, don’t play with flame”
But the flame said “baby, we’re the same”
Static choir in the back of my skull
Every bright thing makes the dark feel full
I don’t need crowns, I don’t need a throne
Just a loud heart and a match of my own
[PRE-CHORUS 2]
Pulse in my throat like a war drum choir
Bad ideas dressed in church-bell fire
Every little thought got teeth and a fuse
Tell me one good reason I should refuse
Knees on the edge of a neon tomb
Brain saying “don’t” but my hands say “boom”
Saints plug ears when the devil goes zoom
THREE—TWO—ONE—
[CHORUS 2]
I love the things that go BOOM!
Turn my sins into a bright cartoon
Paint my name on the face of the moon
BOOM—BOOM—BOOM!
I love the way the doubt explodes
Break my cage with electric codes
Make a choir out of broken rooms
BOOM—BOOM—BOOM!
[Chant]
LET IT BOOM!
LET IT BOOM!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
[VERSE 3 – savage]
I was baptized in a short-fuse prayer
Learned my manners from a live-wire glare
Teacher said “son, you got something wrong”
Flame said “nah, he just sings my song”
Static angels on the back of my neck
Taking bets on what I’ll wreck next
Mirror says “boy, you’re a walking plume”
I wink back—BOOM!
If calm is a king in a velvet tomb
I’m the jester screaming BOOM!
[BRIDGE]
[Sinister whispering voice]
“You don’t love the fire…
you love the moment before it answers.
The breath. The dare.
The yes.”
[Screamed]
I DON’T WANT SAFE!
I DON’T WANT CLEAN!
I WANT THE SPACE!
BETWEEN!
THE DREAM!
AND—BOOM!
[HEAVY METAL BREAKDOWN]
HEY! HEY!
MAKE THE SILENCE GO BOOM!
HEY! HEY!
TURN THE NIGHT TO A ROOM!
HEY! HEY!
HEART LIKE A SONIC TOMB!
HEY! HEY!
BOOM—BOOM—BOOM!
[FINAL CHORUS – LOUDER, MORE POWERFUL]
I love the things that go BOOM!
Make my heartbeat split the room
Turn my scars into costume plumes
BOOM—BOOM—BOOM!
I love the riot in my veins
Pretty chaos wearing chains
If I fall, I’ll fall in tune—
BOOM—BOOM—BOOM!
[Outro - Instrumental]
