Shadow of the Night 2
Dark occult trap with a slow half-time bounce, rattling percussion, and a low, menacing groove; verse rides sparse bass and clipped hits, pre-chorus tightens with rising tension and ghosted snaps, chorus opens with stacked snarled doubles and chanty replies. Deep tenor male vocals with rough texture, dry in the verses, widened and doubled on the hook. Reverse swells, distant bell stabs, and a sub-bass drop into each chorus. Dark, close-mic, heavy mix with gritty low end., deep, male vocals

Lyrics
Verse 1
You step too close, baby
Like you own the air
Cold grin, sharp teeth
But I know what's there
You wear that crown
Like it came from me
I see the cracks
When you try to speak
Pre-Chorus
You look so sure
Standing on air
One false move
And I’ll be there
Counting your steps
In the black of the room
Your little throne
Gets swallowed soon
Chorus
You think you're the Way
You think you're the Way
You think you got what it takes
(laugh, laugh)
Laughter in the Shadow of the Night
Laughter in the Shadow of the Night
You talk so big
Then you fade away
Verse 2
I hear your name
In the back of the room
Like broken glass
In a sealed-up tomb
You throw your words
Like a blade on the floor
I don’t flinch, baby
I’ve heard worse before
Your hands all shake
When the dark gets near
Your little act
Turns thin right here
Pre-Chorus
You look so sure
Standing on air
One false move
And I’ll be there
Counting your steps
In the black of the room
Your little throne
Gets swallowed soon
Chorus
You think you're the Way
You think you're the Way
You think you got what it takes
(laugh, laugh)
Laughter in the Shadow of the Night
Laughter in the Shadow of the Night
You talk so big
Then you fade away
Bridge
Now the room goes cold
And your mask slips off
That iron pride
Starts coming up soft
I don’t need a spell
I don’t need a sign
I just watch you break
In the dead of time
Final Chorus
You think you're the Way
You think you're the Way
You think you got what it takes
(laugh, laugh)
Laughter in the Shadow of the Night
Laughter in the Shadow of the Night
Say it one more time
Then fade away
