[Silence]
[Arrangement: Funk-rock groove, punchy bass, distorted electric guitar riffs, tight drum kit, occasional siren-like synth stabs.]
[Intro]
Hey!
(Watch him go)
No leash
(Whoa, oh, oh)
Something snapped
(It’s gonna blow)
Better step back
(Let it show)
[Verse 1]
Used to be calm
(Used to sit still)
Now it’s all chaos
(Against the will)
Circling faster
(Barking loud)
Lost in the motion
(Running proud)
[Pre-Chorus]
Too much pressure
(Breaking free)
Too much tension
(In the energy)
[Chorus]
Acting unrestrained
(Has he got no brain?)
Aggressive… or out of control
(Impressive? Nooo, I’m gonna roll)
Acting unchained
(Lost in the game)
Breaking loose
(From every chain)
[Refrain]
That dog’s gone mad
(Off his chain)
Things lookin’ bad
(Won’t remain)
I think I’ve had enough fun
(I’m gonna run)
Run, run, run
[Verse 2]
Neighborhood shaking
(From the sound)
Pacing in circles
(All around)
Fence line rattling
(Metal and bone)
No longer answering
(The call of home)
Is it instinct?
(Is it fear?)
Or just something
(That got too near?)
[Pre-Chorus]
Signal’s gone
(Control is thin)
Something’s shifted
(Under the skin)
[Chorus]
Acting unrestrained
(Has he got no brain?)
Aggressive… or out of control
(Impressive? Nooo, I’m gonna roll)
No direction
(Only pain)
Running wild
(Off the chain)
[Bridge]
Push it far enough
(It will bend)
Till the beginning
(Meets the end)
[Instrumental Break]
[Guitar solo: sharp bends, chaotic rhythm stabs]
[Synth siren rise]
[Drum breakdown]
[Final Chorus]
Acting unrestrained
(No longer contained)
Aggressive… or out of control
(The system’s derailed from its role)
Acting unrestrained
(No longer tamed)
Running wild
(Unnamed)
[Final Refrain]
That dog’s gone mad
(Off his chain)
Things lookin’ bad
(Will not remain)
I think I’ve had enough fun
(I’m gonna run)
Run, run, run
[Outro]
Off his chain…
(Off his chain…)
Gone again…
(Off his chain…)
… lame membrane.
