[Intro – Distorted Crowd]
(glitched applause, reversed claps, low bass rumble)
Clap… clap… clap…
Louder…
They’re never satisfied.
🎭 [Verse 1]
Every cheer cuts like a knife
They don’t love me—they want life
Every scream pulls me apart
Like they’re feeding on my heart
Hands up high, they beg for more
But I’ve bled out on this floor
Every second that I stay
Takes another piece away
🎭 [Pre-Chorus 1]
Hear the thunder in the crowd
Feel it getting way too loud
Every voice becomes a chain—
Tied around me in the rain
💥 [Chorus 1]
It’s the applause of the damned
Clapping blood on their hands
Every scream pulls me under—
I’m the show, I’m the sin
Let the chaos begin
They don’t stop, they just hunger
Every cheer, every cry
Keeps me barely alive—
But I’m fading in the thunder
It’s the applause of the damned
Clapping blood on their hands—
And they’ll never let me go
🎭 [Verse 2]
Spotlight burns into my bones
I can feel it when I’m alone
Every echo never fades
Even when the music breaks
I can’t tell what’s real or not
Every moment overwrought
They don’t see me disappear—
They just scream louder in my ear
🎭 [Pre-Chorus 2]
Feel the pressure in my chest
Like I’m failing every test
Every heartbeat out of time—
But they scream like I’m divine
💥 [Chorus 2]
It’s the applause of the damned
Clapping blood on their hands
Every scream pulls me under—
I’m the show, I’m the sin
Let the chaos begin
They don’t stop, they just hunger
Every cheer, every cry
Keeps me barely alive—
But I’m fading in the thunder
It’s the applause of the damned
Clapping blood on their hands—
And they’ll never let me go
🔥 [Bridge – Chaotic Breakdown]
(beat cuts → heavy distorted pulse builds)
Louder—louder—
I can’t hear myself think
Louder—louder—
Push me right to the brink
Take it—take it—
Every piece that I am
Break it—break it—
For the sake of the fans
💥 [Final Chorus – Overwhelming / Explosive]
It’s the applause of the damned
Clapping blood on their hands
Every scream drags me under—
I’m the show, I’m the sin
Let the nightmare begin
They don’t stop, they just hunger
Every cheer, every cry
Keeps me barely alive—
Now I’m lost in the thunder
It’s the applause of the damned
Clapping blood on their hands—
And they’ll never let me go
🎬 [Outro – Collapse / Echoing]
(applause distorts, slows, fades into static)
Keep clapping…
Even when I’m gone.
