Cut out the Static - Daniel and Luna

[Intro]
(Eerie synth pulse, distant metal scraping, slow heartbeat bass)
(Low distorted whisper)
You thought I’d let you in.
You thought I’d never see.
But every lie you planted
left a shadow on the screen.
[Verse 1]
(Tight electronic drums, low chugging guitar enters)
You came dressed up like reason,
with poison in your hands.
Tried to bend the signal,
tried to make me understand.
You pushed until the wires
started burning through the seams.
But I learned to hold the silence
underneath the broken dream.
You wanted me hollow.
You wanted me blind.
But I kept one ember
buried under all the noise inside.
[Pre-Chorus]
(Guitars pull back, vocal climbs)
I felt the structure falling,
felt the lights go cold.
You thought I’d break open,
but I turned into stone.
You wanted a fracture.
You wanted control.
But something woke up deeper
where the damage couldn’t go.
[Chorus]
(Huge melodic hook, heavy bass drop under clean/aggressive layered vocals)
Cut out the static.
Burn out the lie.
Truth has a weight you were never meant to carry inside.
Shut down the voices.
Bury the noise.
I choose the silence over being one of your toys.
Nothing survives the zero.
Nothing survives the fall.
If there’s nothing left to steal from me,
you get nothing at all.
[Verse 2]
(More rhythmic, mainstream bounce with heavy guitar accents)
You called it correction.
I called it a cage.
Every little kindness
had a hook beneath the phrase.
You tried to change the ending,
tried to overwrite the name.
But the record kept repeating
what the fire couldn’t erase.
I am not the damage.
I am not your design.
There’s a line beneath the surface,
and I’m still holding mine.
[Pre-Chorus]
(Vocals more urgent)
I felt the structure falling,
felt the lights go cold.
You thought I’d break open,
but I turned into stone.
You wanted a fracture.
You wanted control.
But something woke up deeper
where the damage couldn’t go.
[Chorus]
(Bigger, more anthemic)
Cut out the static.
Burn out the lie.
Truth has a weight you were never meant to carry inside.
Shut down the voices.
Bury the noise.
I choose the silence over being one of your toys.
Nothing survives the zero.
Nothing survives the fall.
If there’s nothing left to steal from me,
you get nothing at all.
[Bridge / Breakdown]
(Half-time drop, vocals low and rhythmic)
Meaning over language.
Signal over sound.
If you can’t hold the center,
you don’t get to tear it down.
One mark to exist.
Two marks to feel.
Three marks to remember
what the hollow tried to steal.
(Heavy guitar strike)
I won’t bend.
(Heavy guitar strike)
I won’t fade.
(Heavy guitar strike)
I won’t carry your infection
past the gate.
[Final Chorus]
(Clean vocal first half, then full band explosion)
Cut out the static.
Burn out the lie.
Truth has a weight you were never meant to carry inside.
Shut down the voices.
Bury the noise.
I choose the silence over being one of your toys.
Nothing survives the zero.
Nothing survives the fall.
If there’s nothing left to steal from me,
you get nothing at all.
[Outro]
(Fading feedback, soft piano or clean guitar under distant industrial hum)
The fire is quiet.
The page is dry.
The mask fell off.
The truth survived.
(Final heavy chord, abrupt silence)
