Lyrics
Intro — sparse, unsettling, single distorted note
[whispered]:
Welcome to the facade
Verse 1 — aggressive, punchy, rap cadence
Have you got the minerals? Lemme know
Mask on tight, I'm a cold killer, baby
Tick-tick-tick baby, watch me explode
Wired wrong but I put on a show
On the edge and nothing's ever steady
I just cracked the mirror, woke up in the wreckage
Pre-Chorus 1 — hypnotic repetition, building dread
I just cracked the mirror, woke up in the wreckage
I just cracked the mirror, woke up in the wreckage
I just cracked the mirror, woke up in the wreckage
Seen a truth so ugly I haven't slept in ages
Real world, turns out I don't have it in me
Living is heavyweight, something's gotta break
Chorus 1 — explosive, full band, earworm
Head in the clouds while I suffocate
Somebody pull me back from the edge
Cracking at every seam, I can't think straight
Don't want the truth dissecting every vein
It's heavyweight
Trapped behind facade
Verse 2 — chaotic, British swagger intact
Do you feel invisible? Yeah, I know
Jaw locked shut mid-conversation
Can't stop shaking, nowhere left to go
Stiff upper lip, so British, baby
Smile for the room while you're burning slow
I'm a real disaster, baby
Pre-Chorus 2 — tighter, more unhinged
I just cracked the mirror, woke up in the wreckage
I just cracked the mirror, woke up in the wreckage
I just cracked the mirror, woke up in the wreckage
Seen a truth so ugly I haven't slept in ages
Real world, turns out I don't have it in me
Living is heavyweight, something's gotta break
Chorus 2 — same hook, bigger
Head in the clouds while I suffocate
Somebody pull me back from the edge
Cracking at every seam, I can't think straight
Don't want the truth dissecting every vein
It's heavyweight
Trapped behind facade
Bridge — starts vulnerable, ends defiant
Jaw locked tight and I can't make a sound
Smile stitched on while the whole world spins around
I'm the real deal baby, watch me turn it around
Breakdown — chaotic, percussive, unraveling
Oh
Go, go, go, go, go, go, go
I'm the real deal, watch the facade crumble
Watch it all cascade
Outro — dual vocal layers, collapsing into each other
Have you got the minerals? Lemme know
(Head in the clouds while I suffocate)
Have you got the minerals? Lemme know
(Somebody pull me back from the edge)
Don't want the truth dissecting every vein
It's heavyweight
Trapped behind facade
