Adrenaline thirst

‎[Intro] ‎Adrenaline thirst – a burning ache, ‎But in my soul – just dust and sand. ‎Hope twisted tight, for goodness’ sake, ‎A choking lump won’t let me stand. ‎ ‎[Verse 1] ‎I’m worn out, jaded, overcast, ‎Have seen too much – and more, piled high. ‎But no one’s safe from fate’s harsh blast – ‎Daedalus clips the wings that fly. ‎ ‎[Build-up] ‎(arpeggio rises, snare roll) ‎ ‎[Chorus] ‎Yet still I hear: “You’re lucky, man!” – ‎And pulse drums hard against my brow. ‎Make me feel alive – if all that’s wrong ‎Is locked in mirrors, sealed up now! ‎ ‎A dawn the color of blood, a blazing ray, ‎Scatter my ashes to the gale! ‎I crave the light – or maybe nay – ‎I’d trade it all for your mirage’s veil. ‎ ‎[Verse 2] ‎You stare at heaven like a hound ‎That’s just been kicked and left to bleed. ‎Your eyes are pitch-black, darkness-bound, ‎And void… lures sweetly, like a feed. ‎ ‎[Instrumental] ‎Something is missing, clear as day – ‎My zest has fled to monks somewhere. ‎My pulse no longer races – grey, ‎No wishes left. A fence – just there. ‎ ‎[Bridge] ‎If someone held a torch to my heart, ‎And kindled me with just one spark – ‎Where are you, white angel, depart? ‎Open the gates, don’t leave me dark. ‎ ‎[Verse 3] ‎A frozen wanderer, at his brink, ‎Too tired to chase the horizon’s gleam. ‎When thoughts are dead and goals extinct, ‎Why need an umbrella in the desert’s dream? ‎ ‎[Build-up] ‎(filter sweep, hi‑hats accelerate) ‎ ‎[Chorus – final drop] ‎Yet still I hear: “You’re lucky, man!” – ‎And pulse drums hard against my brow. ‎Make me feel alive – if all that’s wrong ‎Is locked in mirrors, sealed up now! ‎ ‎A dawn the color of blood, a blazing ray, ‎Scatter my ashes to the gale! ‎I crave the light – or maybe nay – ‎I’d trade it all for your mirage’s veil. ‎ ‎[Outro] ‎The night grows black. ‎Store‑window light drips, soft and slow… ‎And somewhere far, the battles rack… ‎(fade) ‎[end]
