Tragedy Magic
by Darth Nihlus
Lyrics
Intro
Tap-tap
Steel teeth grin
Cold bolts turn
In the dark box
A voice like sparks
Verse 1
I woke in the seam
Between the screams
With rust on my tongue
And smoke in my dreams
Your name hit the wall
Like broken glass
I learned how to kneel
By watching it pass
Pre-Chorus
Count down slow
Seal the door
Hear it crawl
Through the floor
Hold that shape
Hold that face
Something blind
Takes my place
Chorus
Tragedy magic
Tragedy magic
Turn me black
Make it tragic
Tragedy magic
Tragedy magic
I break hard
Then I come back
Verse 2
Hands in the gauge
Eyes in the seam
I fed my fear
To a metal machine
It spoke in clicks
It spit my trace
Put a cold stamp
On my face
Now every doubt
Has a coded teeth
And every lie
Keeps calling to me
Pre-Chorus
Count down slow
Seal the door
Hear it crawl
Through the floor
Hold that shape
Hold that face
Something blind
Takes my place
Chorus
Tragedy magic
Tragedy magic
Turn me black
Make it tragic
Tragedy magic
Tragedy magic
I break hard
Then I come back
Bridge
Half-time breakdown
Say it low
Say it mean
Feed the thing
Between the beams
I am the glitch
I am the bruise
I am the wire
That will not choose
Breakdown
Cut
Crush
Pull it apart
Dead hands
Beat in my chest
No saint
No spark
Just the pulse
Of a scarred machine
Verse 3
When the sirens fade
And the hall goes mute
I hear your ghost
In the feedback chute
Not mercy
Not grace
Just a silver ache
That drags my name
Through the grate
Pre-Chorus
Count down slow
Seal the door
Hear it crawl
Through the floor
Hold that shape
Hold that face
Something blind
Takes my place
Final Chorus
Tragedy magic
Tragedy magic
Turn me black
Make it tragic
Tragedy magic
Tragedy magic
I break hard
Then I come back
Tragedy magic
Tragedy magic
Burn my name
In the static
Outro
Tap-tap
Steel teeth grin
Cold bolts turn
And I’m in again
