Intro
(soft, airy)
un-der the sta-tic (hold)
some-thing won’t let go (fade in)
⸻
Verse 1
(steady)
I hear it crawl be-neath my thoughts
twist-ing all the lines I’ve got
every word begins to rot
I can’t shut it out
the mirror shows a dif-fer-ent me
some-one else is look-ing through me
every blink I start to see
what I can’t a-void
⸻
Pre-Chorus
(build)
say it once a-gain (hold)
let it sink be-low
I can’t tell if this
is me or just a ghost
bend-ing e-ve-ry truth
break-ing what I know
I am los-ing ground
fall-ing in-to you
⸻
Chorus
(strong, sustained)
un-der the sta-tic (hold)
you’re watch-ing me
I try to fight it
you won’t re-lease
un-der the sur-face
you start to grow
I’m bare-ly breath-ing
you take con-trol (hold)
⸻
Post-Chorus
(soft echo)
you’re in my mind
you mul-ti-ply
I can’t de-ny
⸻
Verse 2
(steady, darker)
every shadow moves too fast
like it’s built from all my past
every sec-ond nev-er lasts
it just folds a-way
I feel your voice with-out a sound
pull-ing strings and drag-ging down
spin me lost and spin me ‘round
till I dis-ap-pear
⸻
Pre-Chorus
(build)
say it once a-gain
pull me fur-ther in
I can’t find the edge
of where you be-gin
⸻
Chorus
(stronger)
un-der the sta-tic
you’re watch-ing me
I try to fight it
you won’t re-lease
un-der the sur-face
you start to grow
I’m los-ing feel-ing
you take my soul
⸻
Bridge
(hypnotic, faster)
clos-er clos-er in my head
nev-er leav-ing nev-er dead
ov-er ov-er words I’ve said
echo back a-gain
clos-er clos-er I can’t see
what is real or what is me
ov-er ov-er I de-cay
slip-ping a-way
⸻
Break
(whisper)
am I me
or are you
⸻
Final Chorus
(full, intense)
un-der the sta-tic
you’re all I’ve got
I try to break it
but I can-not
un-der the sur-face
you take con-trol
I’m bare-ly liv-ing
you are my soul (hold)
⸻
Outro
(fade out)
un-der the sta-tic
you’re still a-live
Viren
