(Drop D tuning — Acoustic & Electric blend)
[Intro — Haunting Acoustic Fingerstyle, clean tone, slow tempo]
[Clean Vocals — soft, emotional]
The Mary Jane runnin’ through my veins,
Is the only savin’ grace.
I’m askin’ someone to take the reins,
While I feel the fuckin’ disgrace.
[Humming / background “Ohhh ahhh ah” harmonies, reverb-heavy]
Ohhh ahhh ah.
Ohhh ahhh ah-ah.
Ohhh ahhh ah.
Ohhh ahhh ah-ah.
[Acoustic swells, low E string drone]
The smoke wraps tight around my head,
Like a whisper from the dead.
Every breath I take, I choke,
Every truth I spoke — I broke.
[Verse 1 — Heavy Acoustic Riff + Double Kicks enter]
[Clean vocals with grit]
Killing the time,
Don’t need a masterpiece.
Feelin’ right (right, right),
Right in the fuckin’ ground.
[Electric bass joins — distorted low end]
Bleed the lines that keep me sane,
Another day, another chain.
Freedom fades in the firelight,
And I can’t tell what’s wrong or right.
[Acoustic Breakdown — Fingerstyle returns, drums drop out, soft vocals]
I only ask for a second,
It feels like I’m guessin’ all the time.
The silence breaks, I’m left infected,
With pieces of a shattered mind.
[Clean layered vocals, light reverb]
I prayed to ghosts that never came,
I screamed my name in the pouring rain.
Every thought just feeds the flame,
But nothin’ ever feels the same.
[Chorus — Super Heavy Electric Guitar + Full Drum Assault]
[Harsh Vocals / Screams]
Suffocate the guilt inside,
Let it burn, let it die.
Every sin I try to hide,
Screamin’ “fuck this life” tonight!
[Chugging rhythm guitars, pinch harmonics, ride cymbal crashes]
Chains around my hollow chest,
I never seem to get no rest.
Pain’s the only friend that stayed,
While my faith just decayed.
[Bridge — Drop Tempo, Groove Metal Feel]
[Growled Vocals, syncopated chugs in Drop D]
(Bent note harmonics ring out)
Drop it low, drop it slow,
Let the strings bleed what I can’t show.
Heaven’s gone, I’m below,
Buried deep in my own flow.
[Double kick accents build tension]
Eyes roll back, I feel the void,
Every sound gets destroyed.
Feed me lies, I’ll eat ‘em whole,
Just to fill this goddamn hole.
[Breakdown — Pure Chaos, Mix of Screams and Cleans]
[Guitar feedback + Tremolo pick intro]
Tear me open, make me real,
Show me what I used to feel.
Steel and wood, the strings collide,
In this war inside my mind.
[All instruments cut — 1 beat silence]
...And the echoes fade like dying cries.
[Outro — Slow Acoustic Fingerpicking + Clean Vocals, fading tempo]
The Mary Jane still in my veins,
The ghost of me remains.
Fade away, fade away,
Grace gone, decay.
[Soft clean vocals, light chorus effect]
If I wake up, will I still be me?
Or just another casualty?
The pain, the grace, the fall from space...
Just a memory in my veins.
[Ends on open D chord — let ring]
