Dark horror rock, epic and confident mood. Intro: loud ticking of a clock, creepy lullaby music box melody. Verse: male vocal, stern, confident, slightly eerie, low pitch. Instrumental break: choir singing ominous "Ah" or "Oh", background clock ticking continues. Bridge: use of "fear machine" sound design (industrial dread, deep mechanical breathing, creaking metal). Outro: clock ticking fades out with distorted lullaby notes. Slow tempo, heavy bass, cinematic percussion.
