Faultline in My Chest
E
[email protected]
Aggressive festival dubstep: intro pads swell into a half-time stomp
then drop into snarling
metallic bass growls and punchy kick-snare. Male vocals
tight and rhythmic
with chopped phrases stuttered as vocal FX around the drop. Second pass adds brighter lead synths
crowd-call ad-libs
and a final fake-out drop that slams back in for the outro.

Lyrics
[Intro]
Breathing smoke
Jaw locked tight
Red eyes glow
In the strobe light
[Verse 1]
You say calm down
But my hands still shake
Heart like a faultline
Ready to break
Teeth on the bottle
Name on my tongue
Words get heavy
And my lungs go numb
[Pre-Chorus]
Are we crashing?
Are we close?
Can you feel it
In your throat?
Every secret
Every stress
Stacks and stacks on
On my chest (yeah)
[Chorus]
There’s a faultline in my chest
Cracking open
I confess
When you push
I never rest
I just tremble
I just tense
There’s a faultline in my chest
Pull the pin
I’ll do the rest
If we blow up
Call it blessed
We were never built for less
[Drop]
[Beat cuts
Vocal chop repeating “faultline… faultline…”]
[Full drop slams in]
(faultline, faultline, faultline)
[Verse 2]
Glass on the counter
Phone facedown
You walk circles
I shut out sound
You want answers
I want air
You keep talking
But I’m not there
[Pre-Chorus]
Are we drifting?
Are we done?
Feels like standing
In the muzzle of a gun
Every promise
Every test
Piles and piles on
On my chest (oh)
[Chorus]
There’s a faultline in my chest
Cracking open
I confess
When you push
I never rest
I just tremble
I just tense
There’s a faultline in my chest
Pull the pin
I’ll do the rest
If we blow up
Call it blessed
We were never built for less
[Drop]
[Everything drops to sub
Filtered growls creeping in]
(faultline, faultline)
[Fake-out pause
One dry vocal line:]
[Bridge]
If it breaks tonight
Let it break on you
[Final Drop]
[Instant slam back—full bass and drums]
(faultline, faultline, faultline)
Breathing smoke
Jaw locked tight
Red eyes glow
In the strobe light
[Verse 1]
You say calm down
But my hands still shake
Heart like a faultline
Ready to break
Teeth on the bottle
Name on my tongue
Words get heavy
And my lungs go numb
[Pre-Chorus]
Are we crashing?
Are we close?
Can you feel it
In your throat?
Every secret
Every stress
Stacks and stacks on
On my chest (yeah)
[Chorus]
There’s a faultline in my chest
Cracking open
I confess
When you push
I never rest
I just tremble
I just tense
There’s a faultline in my chest
Pull the pin
I’ll do the rest
If we blow up
Call it blessed
We were never built for less
[Drop]
