Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Flick of the needle
Buzz in my head
Steam on the mirror
Names of the dead
Her perfume phantom
Clings to my sleeves
Every new letter
Scratches and seethes
[Verse 2]
I spell you in cursive
Under my throat
Curl of your laughter
Skinned into quotes
Every confession
Carved in my hide
Gallery of faces
Pinned to my side
[Chorus]
I am the reckoning
Crawling through your veins (through your veins)
Every scar you worship
I will make it stain
All of the silent mouths
Buried in your skin
I am the tide that’s rising
You will drown in them (drown in them)
[Verse 3]
Black ink and shiver
Blemished devotion
Needle keeps dragging
Through frozen oceans
I hear your footsteps
Under the floor
Voices in cursive
Clawing the door
[Bridge]
[Halftime
Guitars open up
Vocals snarl]
You write us down
To lock us in
But every line
Runs back to sin
You brand our lives
To bless your blame
But we are fire
Inside your name (hey!)
[Chorus]
I am the reckoning
Crawling through your veins (through your veins)
Every scar you worship
I will make it stain
All of the silent mouths
Buried in your skin
I am the tide that’s rising
You will drown in them
[Chorus]
We are the reckoning
Whispering your crimes (your crimes)
Every mark that saved you
Turns against your mind
All of the numbered ghosts
Etched beneath your grin
We are the flood that’s coming
You will break within (break within)

Style
metal, Modern melodic metal; male and female vocals trading lead. Downtuned guitars chug and slide around a midtempo groove, tom-heavy drums and splashes of double-kick in the chorus. Verses are tense and palm-muted with eerie clean guitar lines; choruses explode with wide distorted chords, stacked female harmonies, and soaring lead lines. Occasional pinch harmonics and a brief halftime breakdown under the bridge to amp the menace., female vocals
