THE MONSTER YOU MADE

歌詞

THE MONSTER YOU MADE [INTRO — Distant horn. Dragging chains. Heartbeat bass.] [Soft female whisper] You found a fracture in the ice. You put your voice inside. You called it mercy when I woke— [Silence] Then taught me how to bite. [MASSIVE BASS DROP] [VERSE 1 — Low melodic vocal. Grinding guitars and sharp trap hi-hats.] You took the silver from my veins, Poured in a fire that knows my name. Set every broken bone in gold, Then gave the wound a throne to hold. Now black scales rise beneath the silk. The wells run warm. The flowers wilt. I cross the bridge without a sound— Its shadow burns before it falls. You never needed iron bars. You learned the language of my scars. One gentle word behind my teeth— And something terrible answers me. [PRE-CHORUS — War drums climb. Voice grows fierce.] Tell me who should fear the dawn. Tell me where to bring the storm. その声が、牙を研ぐ。 [Whispered command] “Show them.” [CHORUS — Huge half-time drop. Soaring female belt.] LOOK AT THE MONSTER YOU MADE! Look at the sky where the sunlight gave way! You put a kingdom’s end in my hands— NOW SAY THE WORD! NOW WATCH IT LAND! I AM THE FIRE YOU TAUGHT TO OBEY! I AM THE DEBT THAT THE INNOCENT PAY! Call me your miracle. Call me your blade. LOOK AT THE MONSTER— THE MONSTER YOU MADE! [POST-CHORUS — Stomping drums. Chopped self-vocals.] Hush— Hear the horns. Hush— Here comes your storm. 灰の玉座で、誰が笑う？ [VERSE 2 — Fast, percussive delivery. Distorted sliding 808s.] Ryūga snaps and the gate splits wide. Red light runs up the mountainside. Bow pulled back—let the false stars fly. One finds stone and the nine tell lies. Scarlet wings over palace roofs. Soldiers scatter at the thunder’s pulse. No hunger left for the moon to feed— There’s a furnace where my heart should be. Come to the window. Look at me. Beautiful as a catastrophe. You’ll see the smile before the flame. You’ll hear his order inside my name. I know the market beneath these sparks. I bought white flowers beside that arch. My arm goes still for half a breath— [Cold whisper] “Finish.” [PRE-CHORUS — Instruments cut to bass and breath.] My fingers shake. The bowstring sings. A little ash On everything. まだ心は、死んでいない。 [CHORUS — Full guitars. Thunderous bass. Layered female harmonies.] LOOK AT THE MONSTER YOU MADE! Look at the sky where the sunlight gave way! You put a kingdom’s end in my hands— NOW SAY THE WORD! NOW WATCH IT LAND! I AM THE FIRE YOU TAUGHT TO OBEY! I AM THE DEBT THAT THE INNOCENT PAY! Call me your miracle. Call me your blade. LOOK AT THE MONSTER— THE MONSTER YOU MADE! [BREAKDOWN — War horn blast. Slow guitar chugs. Enormous bass impacts.] [Whispered command] “Raise your head.” [Low, fierce] THE BELLS GO STILL. “Spread your wings.” THE SHADOW FILLS. “Open your mouth.” [Silence. Sharp inhale.] [Explosive scream] THE HEAVENS SPILL! [BASS SLAM] You made the teeth! You chose the prey! You taught the dark To wear my face! 私を怪物と呼ぶなら— お前の罪も、その名で呼べ！ [Four-bar instrumental — Pounding toms, distorted 808s, chugging guitars.] [BRIDGE — Bare strings. Quiet, intimate vocal.] When nothing’s left to conquer, When no one’s left to kneel, Will you still call me precious Without a sword to wield? If I came back with empty hands, No broken crown, no conquered land— Would you remember how to speak Without commanding something of me? [BUILD — Heartbeat accelerates. Rising horns.] You brush the ashes from my cheek. I almost think you’ll let me weep. [Whispered command] “One more kingdom.” [Silence] And I turn. [FINAL CHORUS — Maximum bass. Huge melodic belt.] LOOK AT THE MONSTER YOU MADE! Crown of Oblivion swallowing day! A crimson moon where the heavens should stand— NOW SAY THE WORD! NOW WATCH IT LAND! I AM THE FIRE YOU TAUGHT TO OBEY! SOMEWHERE INSIDE, I REMEMBER MY NAME! You call this devotion. I CALL IT A CAGE! 私の名は、まだ消せない！ LOOK AT THE MONSTER— THE MONSTER YOU MADE! [OUTRO — Two deep bass hits. Distant collapsing stone.] [Close whisper] You said you’d make me fearless. Now nothing frightens me— Except your voice.
