Rattle the Bones
Dark industrial trap with distorted sub-bass rumble, crushed drums, and eerie atonal synth stabs. Deep tenor male vocals pushed forward and gritty, with whispers and layered hisses in the sides. Verses stay sparse and tense, chorus explodes with wider pads and low choirs. Sub drops and reverse FX keep it haunted and cinematic, perfect for a hard, ominous performance., deep, male vocals

Lyrics
Intro
(…hisss…)
So you say
“Rattle the bones”
Like it’s just a phrase
Like it’s just some joke
Verse 1
Candles burn low on a cracked black plate
Names in ash that I can’t translate
Every breath tastes like rust and stone
Every word you speak cuts through my throat
You play with shadows like they’re just smoke
Call the dark “a vibe
” light it like a joke
But some doors open and never close
Say it one more time—
“Rattle the bones”
Chorus
So you say
“Rattle the bones” (hisss)
Speak to the grave like it’s yours to own
You don’t know
What’s under the tone
Say my name wrong
And I’ll split your soul
So you say
“Rattle the bones” (yeah)
Hands on the gate like it’s cheap and old
Keep on calling
Keep on calling
Something answers
That won’t let go
Verse 2
Circle on the floor where the paint turned dry
You laugh at the fear sitting in my eyes
You trace each line like a childish note
But the air turns thick when you clear your throat
Teeth in the dark start counting slow
One by one as your courage grows
You grin at the chill crawling up your spine
Then the room goes cold
And the hiss is mine (hisss)
Chorus
So you say
“Rattle the bones” (hisss)
Speak to the grave like it’s yours to own
You don’t know
What’s under the tone
Say my name wrong
And I’ll split your soul
So you say
“Rattle the bones” (hey)
Hands on the gate like it’s cheap and old
Keep on calling
Keep on calling
Something answers
That won’t let go
Bridge
You wanted proof?
Here’s proof in your veins
Hear the crawl in your skin
Hear the crawl in your name
You wanted real?
Now the real wants you
Every little word
Is a binding
Too (hisss)
Chorus
So you say
“Rattle the bones” (hisss)
Speak to the grave like it’s yours to own
You don’t know
What’s under the tone
Say my name wrong
And I’ll split your soul
So you say
“Rattle the bones”
Last little dare in a borrowed throne
Keep on talking
Keep on talking
When the floor caves in
You walk alone
