Intro (spoken, filtered like a radio broadcast — clean, no music) "...we interrupt this program with breaking news... reports of unrest spreading through the city tonight... authorities urging calm as the situation... unravels..." (radio crackle, then SILENCE) [GUITARS HIT — full band, drop-tuned riff, drums slam in] Verse 1 (aggressive, rhythmic vocals) Turn it on, watch it burn Every station says the same Talking heads and turning wheels Feeding smoke, feeding flame I don't buy it, I don't trust it Every word's a loaded gun Noise inside my head, they said it Now I'm running from the sun Pre-Chorus (building, half-time breakdown) Can you hear it? (Hear it) Can you feel it? (Feel it) The signal's breaking The signal's breaking down Chorus (full aggression, gang vocals on backup) SIGNAL BREAK — I'm losing all control SIGNAL BREAK — chaos in my soul Turn it off, I can't take anymore This is not — this is not — what I signed up for Verse 2 Screens are lying, mouths are moving Nothing's real but what I feel Every headline built to break me Every broadcast built to steal I'm the feedback, I'm the noise now I'm the thing they can't control Rip the wires from the wall now Take back what is mine to hold Pre-Chorus Can you hear it? (Hear it) Can you feel it? (Feel it) The signal's breaking The signal's breaking down Chorus SIGNAL BREAK — I'm losing all control SIGNAL BREAK — chaos in my soul Turn it off, I can't take anymore This is not — this is not — what I signed up for Breakdown (drop to half-time, chugging riff, screamed/shouted vocals) NO MORE LIES NO MORE NOISE NO MORE FEEDING ON MY SILENCE I FOUND MY VOICE Bridge (clean vocals, quiet, tension building — just bass and drums) Maybe the truth was never broadcast Maybe it's buried in the noise Maybe I gotta break the signal To finally hear my own voice [GUITARS SLAM BACK IN — final chorus, double-time drums] Final Chorus SIGNAL BREAK — I'm taking back control SIGNAL BREAK — no chaos in my soul Turn it up, I'm not afraid anymore This is my life — this is my life — not yours to score Outro (screamed, fading into silence) Signal break... signal break... I found my voice... (cuts to silence)
