Tourniquet

[Silence]

[Instrumental – Guitar, Synth, Organ, Bass, Percussion, Drums]

[Intro]
[Instrumental Intro – Slow Bass Pulse, Distant Guitar Echo, Cymbal Wash]
[Spoken Vocal]
Pressure rising
(Can’t ignore)
Something’s breaking
(At the core)

[Verse 1]
Lines are cracking
(Under strain)
Damage spreading
(Like a stain)
Time is ticking
(Feel the speed)
Every moment
(Feeds the bleed)

[Chorus]
Stop the feed
(Of the bleed)
Put an end…
(Help to mend)

[Bridge – Breakdown]
[Percussion, Sub Bass, Spoken Vocal]
The bleeding (won’t quit)
Need a tourniquet?

[Driving Rhythm Guitar]

[Verse 2]
Warning signals
(Loud and clear)
Still we hesitate
(Held by fear)
Patch the wound
(Do what’s right)
Hold the line
(Through the night)

[Bridge – Breakdown]
[Percussion, Sub Bass, Spoken Vocal]
The bleeding (won’t quit)
Need a tourniquet?

[Instrumental – Guitar Solo]
[Driving Rhythm Guitar]
[Organ Stabs, Driving Bass, Snare March]

[Verse 3]
Hands together
(Tie it tight)
Stop the damage
(Stem the fight)
Turn the pressure
(Slow the flow)
Start the healing
(Let it grow)

[Final Chorus]
Stop the feed
(Of the bleed)
Put an end…
(Help to mend)

Stop the flow
(We can lead)
Bind the wound
(Plant the seed)

[Bridge – Breakdown]
[Percussion, Sub Bass, Spoken Vocal]
The bleeding (won’t quit)
Need a tourniquet?

[Outro]
[Instrumental Fade – Guitar sustain, Organ swell]
Hold the line
(Stay the course)
Tie the knot
(Change the force)
