Prompt / Lyrics
[Intro- Clean, reverberated guitar melody with a slight delay. Soft synth pad underneath. The atmosphere is tense but quiet. Slowly building...] [Sudden explosion of sound—staccato, djent-style open note chugs syncopated with the kick drum.] [Verse 1- Music drops out to just bass and a tight, dry drum groove. Guitar plays ghostly ambient swells in the background.] The mountain is too high to climb When you’re looking at the peak from the floor. I’m paralyzed by the grand design, Can’t see the handle on the door. Everything screams at once, A choir of static in my head. The future is a heavy ghost, Filling up the space around my bed. [Pre-Chorus- Guitars ramp up—palm-muted triplet chugs building tension.] Don’t look up. Don’t look down. Just keep your feet on the solid ground. [Scream] BREATHE! [Instrumental chorus- Full distortion. Massive, wall-of-sound chords] [Verse 2- Groove returns, but heavier now. Bass is distorted and clanking. Guitar does a technical, tapped lead line over the rhythm.] Mathematical chaos, the sum of my fears, Trying to solve a lifetime in a couple of years. Stop the clock. Break the glass. Let the sand pour out of the hourglass. I can’t fix the wreckage of the past, I can’t build a shelter that is built to last If I don’t lay the first brick down. [Chorus- Full intensity] If I carry the world, I’ll break my spine, So I’ll just carry what is mine! The war isn’t won in a single light, It’s fought in the seconds before the night! One step. One breath. One scar. Tomorrow is a galaxy too far. Just survive today. [Bridge- Sudden silence. Then...] [Whispered] Just... one... thing... [Building scream] JUST... ONE... THING! [Breakdown- Tempo slows drastically. Brutally heavy, palm-muted open notes. Disgustingly low tone.] SEVER THE TIES TO THE FUTURE! [Chug - Chug - Pause - Chug] ANCHOR YOUR SOUL TO THE NOW! [Chug - squeal - Chug] THE WHOLE OCEAN WILL DROWN YOU... BUT YOU CAN SWALLOW A DROP! YOU CAN SWALLOW A DROP! BLEGH! [Guitar Solo / Ambient Interlude- Chaotic shredding transitions into a washed-out, beautiful clean section, reminiscent of the intro but brighter.] [Chorus- Full distortion. Massive, wall-of-sound chords. Soaring, melodic clean vocals layered with a mid-range scream.] If I carry the world, I’ll break my spine, So I’ll just carry what is mine! The war isn’t won in a single light, It’s fought in the seconds before the night! One step. One breath. One scar. Tomorrow is a galaxy too far. Just survive today. [Screamed] Survive today! [Outro- Slow, heavy rhythm returns, fading out slowly.] The sun still rises. Even if I’m broken. The sun still rises. One day. One breath.
