[Intro]
[Metallic Clanks, Slow Drum Thud, Low Drone, Distant Screeching Rails]
[Filtered Vocal, Echoed]
It starts with a slip…
(Then… let ‘er rip…)
[Beat Drops, Distorted Bass Enters, Guitar Feedback]

[Verse 1]
[Driving Groove, Gritty Bass, Tight Drums, Muted Guitar Riffs]
One step past the warning sign
Thought you’d read between the lines
Pressure building, hairline crack
Now there’s no way pulling back

Every bolt begins to shake
Every choice a small mistake
Steel remembers every sound
As the whole thing’s coming down

[Pre-Chorus]
[Snare Build, Rising Synth, Guitar Swells]
Feel the tension start to snap
No more room to fill the gap
All the weight you tried to hide
Now it’s breaking from inside

[Refrain]
[Full Hit, Heavy Drums, Chant Vocals, Distorted Guitar]
D! (Railed)
Last nail
D! (Railed)
Listen to the wail
(Derailed)

[Verse 2]
[Half-Time Beat, Dark Piano Layer, Pulsing Bass]
Tracks are twisting out of line
Signal lost in real-time
Every second splits in two
Nothing left for you to do

Echoes screaming through the frame
No one left to take the blame
Momentum doesn’t care
Once you’re in, you’re already there

[Pre-Chorus]
[Build, Percussion Layers, Rising Feedback]
Hear the metal start to cry
Watch the system glitch and fry
All the sparks you tried to tame
Now they’re spelling out your name

[Refrain]
[Full Band, Added Vocal Layers, Aggressive Rhythm]
D! (Railed)
Last nail
D! (Railed)
Listen to the wail
(Derailed)

[Bridge]
[Breakdown, Ambient Noise, Reverb Piano, Low Pulse]
Derive the fall from what you knew
Divide the lies from what was true
D is more than just a sign
It’s the end of every line

[Build-Up, Drum Crescendo, Distorted Bass, Rising Synth]
Drift too far, you disappear
Driven by the pulse of fear
Dead ahead, no time to scale
Just the sound of something frail

[Final Refrain]
[Maximum Intensity, Double-Time Drums, Full Distortion, Chant Choir]
D! (Railed)
Last nail
D! (Railed)
Hear the system fail
(Derailed)

D! (Railed)
Detail
D! (Railed)
Off the final rail
(Derailed)

[Outro]
[Sudden Stop, Then Low Hum Returns, Fading Metal Echo]
D…
(…railed)
D…
(Wailed!)
