[Intro]

(Grainy feedback, a low-tuned bass riff kicks in with a heavy, dragging beat)

[Verse 1]

Woke up in a ditch, throat feelin’ like glass

Suckin’ on a nickel just to make the fever pass

The sky’s a dirty penny, flipped and face down

Ain't no kings left in this ghost-ride town

[Verse 2]

I’m huffing lead paint, prayin’ to the chrome

Sold my last heartbeat just to find a way home

But home’s a scrap heap, a cage of bent wire

Stoking the belly with a fistful of fire

[Chorus]

Give me that red, give me that rust

Dancing on the ashes, kickin’ up the dust

Heart’s a blown engine, grinding on the gear

I’m the monster in the mirror that you used to fear

Yeah, we’re high on the hunger, dyin’ for the rush

[Verse 3]

Chrome teeth grinnin’ at a dead-end street

Scavengin’ for scraps of some synthetic meat

The buzz in my brain is the only law left

Breathin’ in the fallout, high on the theft

[Chorus]

Give me that red, give me that rust

Dancing on the ashes, kickin’ up the dust

Heart’s a blown engine, grinding on the gear

I’m the monster in the mirror that you used to fear

Yeah, we’re high on the hunger, dyin’ for the rush

[Bridge]

(Glitchy guitar screech, slow-mo breakdown)

Ain’t no water in the well, just oil and spit

The world’s goin’ dark, and I’m lovin’ every bit

Break the seal. Let it bleed.

[Outro]

(Static noise swells, then cuts abruptly)

Still parched.

Keep the change, kid.

Game over.
