Cut the Wire

Ooh—ra—ah—ah! RAH!

Teeth on the wire, boots on the floor

Kick down the lock, I don’t knock anymore

Concrete shaking under every step

Red light blinking like a warning kept

They built a cage from a borrowed name

Fed me silence, then they fed me blame

I taste the rust, I hear the chain

A loaded heartbeat rattles in my veins

You want obedience, you want me small

I’m the pressure cracking through the wall

Count the bolts, count the scars

Count the lies behind the bars

When the signal starts to bend

I won’t break—I’ll overload again

Cut the wire, kill the machine

I am the fault in your perfect routine

No more crawling, no more disguise

Watch the dead weight rise, rise, rise

Cut the wire, let the whole thing fall

I hear my name in the concrete call

No more waiting, no alibis

Watch the dead weight rise, rise, rise

Black smoke rolling from the factory gate

Every clock in the hallway running late

Steel-toed thunder in a vacant room

Bass hits hard like a demolition boom

Your fingerprints are burned into the glass

Every order that you gave me has a past

Now the sirens drown beneath the sound

Of a thousand fists hammering the ground

Count the bolts, count the scars

Count the lies behind the bars

When the signal starts to bend

I won’t break—I’ll overload again

Cut the wire, kill the machine

I am the fault in your perfect routine

No more crawling, no more disguise

Watch the dead weight rise, rise, rise

Cut the wire, let the whole thing fall

I hear my name in the concrete call

No more waiting, no alibis

Watch the dead weight rise, rise, rise

Bury the switch beneath the floor

I’ve got a pulse you can’t control anymore

(Back off!)

Every command turns into noise

(Back off!)

I choose the damage, I choose my voice

Ooh—ra—ah—ah! RAH!

Let it crack, let it burn

Ooh—ra—ah—ah! RAH!

Now it’s my turn!

Cut the wire, kill the machine

I am the fault in your perfect routine

No more crawling, no more disguise

Watch the dead weight rise, rise, rise

Cut the wire, let the whole thing fall

I hear my name in the concrete call

No more waiting, no alibis

Watch the dead weight rise, rise, rise

Cut the wire!

Kill the machine!

Rise! Rise! Rise!
