Rollercoaster High

(No clean pop synths here. It opens with a raw, ticking mechanical sound—like a heavy metal chain pulling a coaster car up a massive incline. A dirty, filtered bassline pulses underneath, mimicking a skyrocketing heart rate.)

You talked me into the front seat, swearing it was safe,

Now the ground is dropping out and I can’t see your face.

Neon pink and stadium lights blurring in the wind,

I’m already choking on the air before we even spin.

My friends are screaming from the ground that I’m losing control,

But I’m too busy letting your gravity swallow my soul.

(The drums completely cut out. The music feels weightless, like that split-second you hang in the air at the very peak of a drop. Vocals are intimate, dry, and terrifyingly close.)

Cold sweat on the metal bar, gripping way too tight,

Looking down at the mess we made in the middle of the night.

Is this what love feels like, or am I just about to crash?

We’re at the edge...And there’s no turning back.

(The track explodes. Not with happy pop chords, but with a massive, chaotic wave of melodic future bass. It feels like an adrenaline rush—huge, emotional, and overwhelming.)

You’ve got me spinning on this rollercoaster high!

Can’t even breathe but you’re telling me to fly!

We’re breaking every rule, defying the dark,

Caught up in the wreckage of a dangerous spark.Yeah, you’ve got me high!

(A sliced-up vocal fragment loops through the madness:) "Too high... can't stop..."

(The beat drops into a heavy, stomping half-time trap groove. It feels more aggressive now.)

Now we’re looping the loop and I’m laughing till I cry,

Ignoring the smell of the burning rubber as we fly on by.

You’re a beautiful hazard, a spectacular mistake,

I see the warning signs cracking but I like the way they break.

We’re running red lights, leaving a trail of smoke,

Too blind to realize the punchline of your joke.

(The weightless feeling returns, but this time it feels less like excitement and more like dread.)

Cold sweat on the metal bar,

gripping way too tight,

Looking down at the mess we made

in the middle of the night.

Is this what love feels like, or am I just about to crash?

We’re at the edge...

And there’s no turning back.

(The bass returns even heavier, shaking the room, designed to get a festival crowd moving together.)

You’ve got me spinning on this rollercoaster high!

Can’t even breathe but you’re telling me to fly!

We’re breaking every rule, defying the dark,

Caught up in the wreckage of a dangerous spark.

Yeah, you’ve got me high!

(The bright chords warp, turning sour and minor. The fast rhythm dies out, replaced by a slow, ominous electronic thud.)

We’re up so high, the air is freezing cold...

And I’m looking at the hand that I’m supposed to hold.

Are you gonna catch me when the tracks start to bend?

Or did you build this whole ride just to watch it end?

(A ticking clock suddenly bleeds into the track. A rapid, frantic snare drum rolls faster and faster, climbing in pitch until it’s deafening.)

Don't let me drop.

Don't you dare let me drop!

Shut up and pull the lever!

(The biggest sonic explosion of the track. It blends the emotional melody of the chorus with the first hints of the dirty, screeching carnival synths that will dominate the album later.)

You’ve got me spinning on this rollercoaster high!

Can’t even breathe but you’re telling me to fly!

Yeah, you’ve got me high...

(The wall of sound is cut off instantly by a harsh, metal-on-metal screeching sound—the brakes slamming on hard.)

Female vocal, lets out a sharp, sudden gasp of air in the dark.

(Gasp)
