Prompt / Lyrics
[raw, abrasive energy of Black/Death metal set against the eerie, innocent uniformity of a children's choir.] [Title: The Nursery of Fractured Glass Tempo: 140 BPM (Alternating between blast beats and funeral doom sludge) Tuning: Drop A] [Intro] [(The song opens with the sound of a music box playing a distorted, minor-key melody. Faint whispering in the background grows into a wall of static. Suddenly, a cavernous, distorted bass riff kicks in with slow, methodical drum hits.)] [Verse 1: Extreme Vocals - Low Death Growl] The walls are breathing rhythmic sighs, I’ve memorized the patterns in their eyes. The shadows aren’t ghosts, they’re just the guest list, Invited to the feast where my logic is suppressed. I checked the locks, then checked the sky, The sun is just a cataract in a dead man's eye. [Pre-Chorus: Extreme Vocals - High Black Metal Shriek] Peel back the skin of the "real"! The static is the only thing I feel! Standardize the tremor! Normalize the fear! [Chorus: Children’s Chapel Choir] [(The metal drops to a hollow, ambient drone. A chorus of thirty children sings in perfect, haunting unison with a slight reverb.)] [(Singing sweetly):] The spiders in the ceiling are counting all our teeth, We smile at the monsters that are living underneath. It’s normal when the floorboards begin to scream and cry, We tuck our little secrets in and tell the truth a lie. La-la-la, hush now, don't you see? The madness is the only way to be. [Verse 2: Extreme Vocals - Mid-range Rasp] Breakfast with the voices, they’ve got so much to say, About the way the colors bleed and wash the world away. I don’t remember sleeping, but I woke up in a hive, It’s a miracle of science just to stay this un-alive. Is it paranoia if the air is out to get you? Is it a delusion if the mirror won’t forget you? [Bridge: Instrumental Chaos] [(A frantic, dissonant guitar solo mimicking a panic attack. Rapid-fire double kick drumming. The music box melody from the intro returns, but played on a distorted electric guitar.)] [Final Chorus: Metal & Choir Layers] [(The full band explodes. The Children’s Choir sings the melody while the Lead Vocalist growls the lyrics underneath in a counter-point style.)] [Choir]: The spiders in the ceiling are counting all our teeth... [Vocalist:] (COUNTING EVERY BONE!) [Choir:] We smile at the monsters that are living underneath... [Vocalist: ](THEY NEVER LEAVE ME ALONE!) [Choir:] It’s normal when the floorboards begin to scream and cry... [Vocalist:] (THE FOUNDATION IS AGONY!) [Choir: ]We tuck our little secrets in and tell the truth a lie. [Outro] [(The metal cuts out abruptly. Only a single child’s voice remains, whispering.)] [Single Child: ]"Don't blink. The silence is the loudest part." [(The sound of a heavy chapel door slamming shut. Feedback fades into silence.)]
