[Intro]
[Low Industrial Drone, Slow Kick Drum, Metallic Echoes, Sub Bass Pulse]
[Spoken Vocal, Slight Distortion]
Say it louder than you feel it… or why say it at all
(Let’s heed the call!)
[Brief silence, rising synth tension]
[Verse 1]
[Mid-Tempo Groove, Bass Guitar, Clean Electric Guitar, Sparse Drums]
Paper systems draw the line
Between the yours and mine
But nothing here is really fixed
It shifts, it slips, it gets mixed
Voices stack but don’t align
Truth is running out of time
Every edge begins to bend
Before it ever finds an end
[Pre-Chorus]
[Build-Up, Snare Crescendo, Rising Synth Pads, Distorted Guitar Layer]
You can feel it in your chest
Something restless, unexpressed
Like a storm that hasn’t broke
But you already feel the smoke
[Refrain]
[Full Band Entry, Driving Rhythm, Heavy Bass, Layered Vocals]
Rail vehemently
(Against lack of humanity)
With angst and vigor
(Make it bigger)
Rail vehemently
(Through the static memory)
With force and trigger
(Make it linger)
[Verse 2]
[Reduced Instrumentation, Piano Motif, Ambient Synth Wash]
Every word is overused
Every truth is being bruised
Meaning bends beneath the strain
Of repetition and its gain
Still you push against the wall
Even knowing it might fall
Not for answers carved in stone
But to not be left alone
[Pre-Chorus]
[Intensity Rising, Percussion Layering, Feedback Guitar Swells]
Something rises in the wire
Like a signal catching fire
Not a plan, not a design
Just a pulse that won’t align
[Refrain]
[Full Impact, Aggressive Drums, Distorted Guitars, Vocal Harmony Stack]
Rail vehemently
(Against lack of humanity)
With angst and vigor
(Make it bigger)
Rail vehemently
(Against the blurred majority)
With heat and rigor
(Make it trigger)
[Bridge]
[Breakdown, Dark Ambient Pad, Reversed Piano, Distant Metallic Clangs]
If it breaks, what do you gain?
If it holds, who feels the pain?
Every cause becomes a thread
Pull it once and something’s shed
[Build-Up, Rising Noise, Drum Crescendo, Feedback Surge]
No direction fully right
No surrender, no clear light
Just the friction in the air
Of a world that isn’t fair
[Final Refrain]
[Maximum Energy, Full Instrumentation, Choir-Like Synth Layers, Double Kick Drums]
Rail vehemently
(Against lack of humanity)
With angst and vigor
(Make it bigger)
Rail vehemently
(Against collapsing sanity)
With fire and trigger
(Make it linger)
[Outro]
[Minimal Synth Fade, Sub Bass Pulse, Distant Echoed Vocal]
Vehemently…
(vehemently…)
Can you hear me?
[Fade to silence]
