[Intro]
[Glitchy Beat, Reversed Guitar, Distant Train Rumble, Sub Bass Pulse]
[Spoken Vocal, Filtered]
You felt it coming… didn’t you?
(Come on, tell me true)
Figure it out somehow?
(Yeah… too late now)
[Beat snaps into place]
[Verse 1]
[Mid-Tempo Groove, Bass Guitar, Tight Drums, Clean Electric Guitar]
Lines were drawn but you stepped wide
Something pulled you from inside
Signals flashing, red then black
Still you never turned it back
Every warning, every sign
Faded out between the lines
What you knew just slipped away
As you crossed into the gray
[Pre-Chorus]
[Build-Up, Snare Roll, Rising Synth, Guitar Swell]
There’s a moment, split in two
Where it’s done before you knew
No returning, no control
Just momentum taking hold
[Chorus]
[Full Band, Heavy Drums, Driving Bass, Layered Vocals]
Jumped the rails
(Off the tracks)
It never fails
(Facts are the facts)
Lost the scale
(No turning back)
Tipped the tale
(Into the black)
[Verse 2]
[Reduced Instrumentation, Piano and Bass Focus, Sparse Percussion]
Gravity forgot your name
Nothing’s steady, nothing’s the same
Every step’s a tilted floor
Leading somewhere never before
Truth distorts and bends its frame
You can’t even place the blame
Cause and effect unwind
Leaving fragments in your mind
[Pre-Chorus]
[Intensity Builds, Distorted Synth, Percussion Layers]
Feel the friction, feel the slide
Like the ground just opened wide
No direction left to choose
Only what you’re bound to lose
[Chorus]
[Full Impact, Guitar Layers, Strong Drum Backbeat]
Jumped the rails
(Off the tracks)
It never fails
(Facts are the facts)
Crossed the veil
(Reality cracks)
Told the tale
(In scattered acts)
[Bridge]
[Breakdown, Ambient Drone, Reverb Piano, Distant Metallic Hits]
One step over, nothing’s clear
Every echo draws you near
To a place you didn’t plan
Built from everything you ran
[Build-Up, Rising Noise, Drum Crescendo, Feedback Guitar]
You can fight it, you can spin
But you’re already within
Every second pulling fast
Future tangled in the past
[Final Chorus]
[Maximum Energy, Double Kick Drums, Full Synth Layers, Vocal Stack]
Jumped the rails
(Off the tracks)
It never fails
(Facts are the facts)
Burned the trail
(No going back)
Sealed the tale
(Fused to the act)
[Outro]
[Minimal Beat, Sub Bass Fade, Soft Guitar Harmonics]
Jumped…
(off the…)
rails…
(Happy trails)
[Silence]
