Terminal Reign
Grizzly: Dark Raspy
Ezra: Robotic
[Dark Cyberpunk Techno / Industrial EBM]
[BPM: 132]
(Heavy, distorted kick drum; pulsing saw-tooth synths)
[Intro]
(A low, vibrating sub-drone. The sound of a heart monitor beeping in a rhythmic techno pulse.)
GrizzlyJones: "Say my name... GrizzlyJones. Yeah, dats me."…
Ezra: "Cipher locked."….
GrizzlyJones: "Bringing the [ledd] ledd to the [fy-er]fire."
[Verse 1]
(A distorted, driving synth bass slams in)
In the silence of the [li-ve] li-ve wire I hear your signal, a ghost in the fire You’re the sequence I can’t rewrite A neon flicker in the dead of night One glance and the stars go cold A digital story that’s never been told With every beat, the pressure climbs I’m breaking the code of a thousand lifetimes.
[Pre-Chorus]
(Snare drum builds up—sounds like a hammer hitting metal)
Hold my hand, don’t drop the link We’re standing on the circuit’s brink In this dance of fate, we play I’ll burn the old world all away!…(Hey!)
[Chorus - The Drop]
(Maximum techno-distortion. Aggressive, "stabbing" synth leads.)
Grizzly: To win your heart, I’ll start the war!…
Ezra: Start the war!…
Grizzly: Through the shadows, through the core!…
Ezra: Through the core!…
Grizzly: With every vow, with every breath A beautiful life or a beautiful death! Win your heart, let the engine reign!…
Ezra: let it reign!…
[Verse 2]
(The beat gets "crunchier"—industrial clanking)
Grizzly: In a world where the dreams collide There’s no more place for us to hide Every moment, every sigh Is a data-stream across the sky I’ll stand by your side in the wreckage and rain The Alchemist’s debt is the Alchemist’s gain.
[Bridge]
(Everything drops to a haunting, ethereal synth pad. Very dark and cinematic.)
When thunder [rores] rores and the shadows creep In the arms of the machine, I’ll leap A symphony of static, cold and pure With you, my heart will always endure….
Ezra: System stabilized.
[Final Chorus]
(The heaviest drop yet—strobe light energy)
Grizzly: To win your heart, I’ll start the war! Through the shadows, through the core! With every vow, with every breath A beautiful life or a beautiful death! Win your heart, let the engine reign!
[Outro]
(The beat slows down into a heavy, rhythmic thud)
So let our journey now unfold Your heart is the only [ledd] ledd I’ll hold In this trance, we’ve found the flame Win your heart...
Ezra: Termination sequence... complete.
Ezra: "Harmonic [seel]... seel applied."
(The sound of a power generator shutting down—a long, descending whir.)
