[Intro]

(Low, distorted bass hum)

(Sound of a heavy heartbeat)

[Verse 1]

Midnight in the dorm hall

Static in the fur

A quiet kind of hunger

Making vision blur

I’m counting all my knuckles

Keeping claws inside

There’s a ghost behind my ribcage

With nowhere left to hide

[Chorus]

Oh, the red is on the menu

But the blue is in my veins

God, it’s heavy being holy

When you’re born to pull the chains

Is it love or is it salivating?

Is it heart or is it jaw?

Just a shadow in a blazer

Breaking every natural law

[Verse 2]

The rabbit in the garden

White light in the dark

I’m a monument of tremors

Waiting for a spark

One inch from the jugular

Two feet from the soul

I’m playing at a person

While I’m losing all control

[Chorus]

Oh, the red is on the menu

But the blue is in my veins

God, it’s heavy being holy

When you’re born to pull the chains

Is it love or is it salivating?

Is it heart or is it jaw?

Just a shadow in a blazer

Breaking every natural law

[Bridge]

(Tempo increases, frantic drums)

Smell of iron

Taste of salt

Every instinct’s

Not my fault

Tear the fabric

Check the pulse

Is the mercy

Just a pulse?

(Sudden silence)

I don’t want to eat you.

I just want to be...

[Guitar Solo]

(Jagged, bluesy, aggressive distortion)

[Chorus]

Oh, the red is on the menu

But the blue is in my veins

God, it’s heavy being holy

When you’re born to pull the chains

Is it love or is it salivating?

Is it heart or is it jaw?

Just a shadow in a blazer

Breaking every natural law

[Outro]

Good boy.

Stay.

(The sound of a door locking)

(Fades into a low growl)
