synth drone, pulsing bass, sharp snare hits, crackling sound FX like short circuits]<\/p>\n<p>[Verse 1]<br \/>\n[Mid-tempo groove, muted guitar rhythm, pulsing bass, atmospheric organ wash]<br \/>\nYou think it\u2019s just a line of wire<br \/>\nA harmless border in the night<br \/>\nBut underneath the painted warning<br \/>\nIs a sleeping kind of light<\/p>\n<p>It waits without a sound or warning<br \/>\nIt doesn\u2019t care who crosses through<br \/>\nIt doesn\u2019t ask for introduction<br \/>\nIt only answers what you do<\/p>\n<p>[Chorus]<br \/>\n[Full intensity return, layered vocals, distorted guitar lead lines]<br \/>\nCareful peeing on electric fences<br \/>\n(The connection a shocking experience)<br \/>\nJolting all of your senses<br \/>\n(With serious consequences)<\/p>\n<p>[Instrumental Break]<br \/>\n[Bluesy electric guitar solo with wah pedal, synth pulses mimicking voltage spikes, drum fills like crackling bursts]<\/p>\n<p>[Verse 2]<br \/>\n[Half-time groove, darker tone, low-end bass emphasis]<br \/>\nIt\u2019s not just wire and simple metal<br \/>\nIt\u2019s a rule you can\u2019t ignore<br \/>\nA boundary drawn in current language<br \/>\nThat you feel right to the core<\/p>\n<p>Some lessons come without a teacher<br \/>\nSome are learned through sudden shock<br \/>\nAnd once you\u2019ve crossed that invisible line<br \/>\nYour world is sure to rock<\/p>\n<p>[Pre-Chorus]<br \/>\n[Cymbals swell, distorted synth rises like energy overload]<br \/>\nThis warning has a reason<br \/>\nAbout natural treason<\/p>\n<p>[Bridge]<br \/>\n[Music drops to bass pulse, distant crackle FX, minimal percussion]<br \/>\nTouch it once\u2026<br \/>\nYou remember<\/p>\n<p>Twice?<br \/>\nYou surrender<\/p>\n<p>Voltage speaks<br \/>\nWithout a tongue<\/p>\n<p>Lesson learned<br \/>\nToo late, too young<\/p>\n<p>[Build-up begins, rising noise, static swell, drums re-enter]<\/p>\n<p>[Synth Solo]<br \/>\n[Arpeggiated synths simulate cascading electrical discharge, guitar harmonics ping like sparks, modulation rising in intensity]<\/p>\n<p>[Final Chorus]<br \/>\n[Massive full-band climax, layered gang vocals, heavy distortion, cymbal crashes]<br \/>\nCareful peeing on electric fences<br \/>\n(The connection a shocking experience)<br \/>\nJolting all of your senses<br \/>\n(With serious consequences)<\/p>\n<p>Careful where the current travels<br \/>\n(Through the lines it unravels)<br \/>\nThe boundary holds a warning sign<br \/>\n(About crossing the over the line)<\/p>\n<p>[Outro]<br \/>\n[Music slowly collapses into soft buzzing hum, distant guitar feedback fades like dying current]<br \/>\nElectric fences\u2026<br \/>\nDon\u2019t forget the
