Somebody

Lyrics

[Intro - low industrial rumble, distant cinematic choir, distorted whispers, ominous synth pulse]
We crawl through the static, through the ash and the rain
Names in the gutter, ghosts with a face and a flame
The city is breathing like a machine in pain
And we’re the forgotten in the back of the frame

[Verse 1 - heavy down-tuned guitars, metallic percussion, icy dark synths, tense male vocal]
They told us “stay small, stay silent, stay clean”
But we learned how to bleed in the cracks between
Under neon confession and a fractured moon
We sharpened our hunger in a locked-up room

No crown, no halo, no mercy, no throne
Just bones and a pulse and a voice of our own
We wear all the scars like a uniform
Rising from the wreckage of the coming storm

[Pre-Chorus - rising strings, pounding toms, layered chants, growing aggression]
Hear the sirens sing our names
In the smoke and in the flames
All the shadows bend and break
As we crawl out of the grave

[Chorus - explosive guitars, massive drums, sinister choir, shouted gang vocals]
We’re the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
Burning in the dark till the whole world sees
We’re dead, they’ll know just who we are
Written in blood on a blackened star
We’re the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
Built from the pain and the broken parts
We’re dead, they’ll know just who we are
When the night falls down, we leave our scars

[Verse 2 - mechanical stomp, distorted bass, cold synth arpeggios, aggressive vocal delivery]
They buried our voices beneath the concrete sound
Thought we’d disappear when they kicked us down
But the dirt don’t hold what the fire won’t keep
We’re the teeth in the dark, we’re the lie they can’t sleep

Every wound is a signal, every scream a key
Every chain that they forged just set us free
We learned how to haunt what was built to cage
Now we’re carving our truth on the edge of rage

[Pre-Chorus - tension builds, choir swelling, guitars tightening, breathy backing vocals]
Hear the sirens sing our names
In the smoke and in the flames
All the shadows bend and break
As we crawl out of the grave

[Chorus - full-force, anthemic, choir doubled with harsh vocals]
We’re the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
Burning in the dark till the whole world sees
We’re dead, they’ll know just who we are
Written in blood on a blackened star
We’re the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
Built from the pain and the broken parts
We’re dead, they’ll know just who we are
When the night falls down, we leave our scars

[Bridge - stripped to ominous piano, distant choir, whispered vocals, cinematic strings swelling]
If we vanish tonight, let the silence remember
The fever, the fractures, the cold December
We were never the weak, never meant to kneel
We were sharpened by hunger, we were made to feel

And if the world won’t give us a name
We’ll take the fire and become the flame
From the ash, from the void, from the wound, from the lie
We rise like a blade in the dead of night

[Final Chorus - biggest arrangement, crushing drums, distorted screams, cathedral choir, synths blazing]
We’re the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
Burning in the dark till the whole world sees
We’re dead, they’ll know just who we are
Written in blood on a blackened star
We’re the nobodies, wanna be somebodies
Built from the pain and the broken parts
We’re dead, they’ll know just who we are
When the night falls down, we leave our scars

[Outro - collapsing distortion, echoing choir, fading industrial drone, whispered refrain]
We’re the nobodies...
Wanna be somebodies...
We’re dead...
They’ll know just who we are...
