[Intro] [rhythmic vocalizations, swirling stereo echoes, glacial reverb, slow psychedelic pulse] -Oh oh oh- -Oh oh oh- -Oh oh oh- -Oh oh oh- -Oh oh oh- -Oh oh oh- -Oh oh oh- -Oh oh oh- [sustained vocal drone, low-frequency brain-throb, ice-crack texture] -Ohhhhhhh- [Verse 1] [beatbox rhythm enters with vocalized bass, cold sub-pulse, distant reverse-guitar shimmer] [Am] I pace the glacial halls inside my skull [F] Where something real and spectral makes its pull A tumor born of tissue and of doubt— It questions if my goodness ever held out I gave them bread, I gave them roof and name I held the line when others fled in shame The raised voice, the withdrawn and heavy hand— Were discipline, the shape of love’s demand [tumor voice, crystalline, cutting through the mix] -You carved your virtue with a blade of ice You called it care while dealing out the price- [Bridge] [scat singing and rapid vocal percussion, escalating pressure, stereo-panned fury] -Ba-da-dam-bam-bam-ba-da-dam-bam-bam- -Ba-da-dam-bam-bam-ba-da-dam-bam-bam- -Ba-da-dam-bam-bam-ba-da-dam-bam-bam- -Ba-da-dam-bam-bam-ba-da-dam-bam-bam- [rapid rhythmic mouth sounds, stuttering freeze] -Pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da- -Pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da- [vocal trills, sharp pain spikes] -Brrrrrr- -Brrrrrr- -Brrrrrr- [Chorus] [layered vocal harmonies, psychedelic phase-shift, wide stereo bloom] (Oh hey oh hey oh hey oh hey) (Oh hey oh hey oh hey oh hey) [vocalized bass and snare sounds, heavy body resonance] -Ba-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da- -Ba-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da- [vocal trills and rhythmic breathing, ice-shard edges] -Brrrrrr- -Brrrrrr- -Brrrrrr- [Verse 2] [distorted spoken-sung delivery, fury rising under the beatbox lattice, glacial pads thickening] [Am] The freeze advances, cracking every claim [F] That I was more than fury wrapped in name I was the rock, the unmoved, steady force— Yet every scar I left still runs its course The slammed words, the cold unyielding stare I swore protected those within my care But still this growth inside the bone insists My goodness was a fog the truth resists [tumor voice, colder, closer, almost inside the ear] -You measured love by how they learned to fear You froze their growth to keep your own path clear- [Bridge] [scat and percussion accelerate, overlapping layers, sense of skull pressure] -Ba-da-dam-bam-bam-ba-da-dam-bam-bam- -Ba-da-dam-bam-bam-ba-da-dam-bam-bam- -Pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da- -Brrrrrr- -Brrrrrr- [Chorus] [layered harmonies denser, slight pitch-drift, chaos blooming] (Oh hey oh hey oh hey oh hey) (Oh hey oh hey oh hey oh hey) -Ba-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da- -Ba-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da-pa-da- -Brrrrrr- -Brrrrrr- [Verse 3] [raw near-spoken intensity, full psychedelic wash, bass and drone almost swallowing the voice] [Am] Now in this brainfreeze of the final hour [F] Flesh and phantom share a single power To force the reckoning I always fled— Was I the good man or the one who bled Them dry of trust and called it strength instead? The argument continues while I burn Between the man I claimed and what I earned Until the ice claims every last defense And leaves the truth without a single fence [tumor voice, final, almost gentle in its cruelty] -Confess the winter that you wore as skin The good man never lived beneath your grin- [Outro] [heavy vocalized bass notes, dissolving into white-noise freeze] -Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum- -Bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum- [sustained low-frequency vocal drone, slow fade into absolute cold] -Ohhhhhhh…-
