Текст песни
[Intro Instrumental: It starts with a sharp, pulsating synthesizer bass, accompanied by a classic break-beat drum pattern. Then a light but sharp synth riff is added. There are a lot of rhythmic bumps, "freezes" and "scratches" in the DJ style.]
[Verse 1: Vocals starts softly, but with a sense of anxiety, gradually gaining pace and confidence.]
Streetlights painting shadows, a lonely neon haze,
Lost inside the echo of these disorienting days.
My reflection in the window, it doesn't look like me,
A fractured, distorted image, staring back, you see.
The silence screams a warning, a whisper in my ear,
It's growing ever louder, dissolving every fear.
I'm walking on a tightrope, above a restless sea,
And something's pulling closer, demanding to be free.
[Pre-Chorus: Vocals more insistent, with a little threat in the voice.]
The air is getting heavy, can you feel it too?
A chilling revelation, coming right at you!
[Chorus: Vocals - Powerful, layered, with strong backing vocals. The rhythm is enhanced, and a dramatic synthesizer melody is added.]
Who is that?! (Echoes) A laugh, a wicked, mocking sound,
Who is that?! (Echoes) Spinning me 'round and 'round and 'round!
Who is that?! (Echoes) A name, they shout it in my mind,
Who is that?! (Echoes) Leaving my sanity behind!
[Verse 2: Vocals: More intense, with faster delivery, almost recitative in some places. Short, sharp sound effects appear – whistling, screeching.]
My thoughts are like a whirlwind, a carnival of dread,
Voices intermingling, planting seeds inside my head.
One moment they are cheering, the next they're calling out my name,
Playing twisted games with me, fueling an internal flame.
They’re twisting every whisper, every shadow on the wall,
A sinister obsession, threatening to enthrall.
I'm stumbling in the darkness, searching for a guiding light,
But all I find are phantoms, hidden in the night.
[Pre-Chorus: Vocals: On the verge of breaking down, with despair.]
The walls are closing in now, I can't escape the maze,
Consumed by all these whispers, lost in a foggy daze.
[Chorus: Vocals: Even more dramatic, with the addition of syncopated rhythms. Synthesizers sound more disturbing.]
Who is that?! (Echoes) A threat, a promise, dark and deep,
Who is that?! (Echoes) While all the world is fast asleep!
Who is that?! (Echoes) They’re breathing down my weary neck,
Who is that?! (Echoes) Leaving me a total wreck!
[Verse 3: Vocals: Starts with a barely audible whisper, turns into desperate screams. The sound effects become more aggressive: harsh synthesizer "glissandos", intermittent percussion.]
I try to tell them leave me, I try to fight them
You tell me I'm imagining, you tell me I'm not there,
But the whispers turn to roars now, a constant, growing scare!
They point their spectral fingers, they claw at my insides,
There's nowhere left for me to run, no place where I can hide.
The city lights are blurring, into a fearful gleam,
I'm trapped inside this nightmare, a waking, dreadful dream.
My body starts to tremble, my heart beats like a drum,
This overwhelming terror, has finally overcome!
[Pre-Chorus: Vocals: Panic-stricken.]
I scream and try to shatter, this phantom in my head,
But all I hear are echoes, of what they’ve always said!
[Chorus: Vocals: As emotional as possible, with increasing aggression and fear. All instruments sound at the limit, a strong synthesizer "organ" is added.
Who is that?! (Echoes) A beast with hungry, gleaming eyes,
Who is that?! (Echoes) Beneath these false and painted skies!
Who is that?! (Echoes) They’re breaking down the final door,
Who is that?! (Echoes) I can't take this anymore!
[Bridge: Vocals: Kept to a minimum, almost unintelligible, drowned out by the rising music. The sound becomes chaotic, with overloaded effects. At the end, there is a sharp break.]
No no no! Can't stand it! Please... leave me... alone...
My mind... is breaking... can't... be known...
Lost... in the static... the noise... it screams...
Fade to black... no more... these... dreams...
[Final Chorus: Full Energy!!! Ad-libs.]
Who is that?! (Echoes) A beast with hungry, gleaming eyes,
Who is that?! (Echoes) Beneath these false and painted skies!
Who is that?! (Echoes) They’re breaking down the final door,
Who is that?! (Echoes) I can't take this anymore!
Who is that?! (Echoes) A beast with hungry, gleaming eyes,
Who is that?! (Echoes) Beneath these false and painted skies!
Who is that?! (Echoes) They’re breaking down the final door,
Who is that?! (Echoes) I can't take this anymore!!!
[Outro: The music stops abruptly, leaving only a pulsating bass, which also gradually dissolves into silence. Perhaps the final, short, distorted sound, similar to a muffled scream.]
