Variation on a theme from „Runaway/Crash“ by Ben Salisbury and Geoff Barrow (soundtrack for A. Garland's 2022 movie „Men“). 

At one moment, I had become obsessed with the main motif from that track, playing it over and over again. One Monday evening (I guess it was in November), I added a background track, and finished it on Tuesday morning. Took me some time to record it.

(Sharing a Pot with the) Green Man

My first own composition with designed vocals.
I'm a total amateur so sorry for all the bad parts.

Special thanks goes to my all testdrivers and especially to @r-u-r-pl for his all advices and for a breakthrough that I made on this one after 1,5 month of no bloody idea.

Lyrics was generated by freshbots.org algorythms and a bit changed to my vision. English is not my first language of use so if something doesn't make sense then blame my (non)understanding. It was more like fun making. An artistic way to express for "better" listening.

Main sense was about kind of sick, crazy love, unrequited that drive us to the edge of sense of good and evil. This is the kind of love with our suffering that hurts us and others. And when we can't balance the feeling we go over the edge. And all around must go with us. Especially the ONE.

Lyrics:

Verse 1:

In the haze of dusk, you stumble, lost and weary
Can't see the light, but you feel my eyes nearly
Run from me, I'm always behind, you will see
I hide between shadows, just trust your plea

Pre-Chorus:

Keep your chest safe, guard your beating soul
In the depths of darkness, I'll take my toll

Chorus:

Run like hell, can't you hear the alarms?
My presence lurking, causing you harm
Stay in the light, where safety resides
Don't let my darkness become a guide

Verse 2:

Memories fading, just a jumble in your mind
But in your heart, I'll leave my mark undefined
I'll weave in your thoughts, my dagger in your back
Your pumping heart, my trophy from this track

Pre-Chorus:

Keep your chest safe, there's danger in my stare
For I am the creeping nightmare, you're unaware

Chorus:

Run like hell, don't let my shadow prevail
For I won't cease until I unveil
Stay in the light, where truth can’t be shown
Escape the grips of darkness, stand on your own

Bridge:

In the whispers of the night, my whispers so cold
But remember, dear one, you're brave and bold
Though I am relentless, you still have a chance
To break free from my grip and reclaim your stance

Reclaim your stance
To break free
You still have a chance
You still have a chance
You still have a chance
You still have a chance!

Chorus:

So run like hell, leave my echoes behind
In the face of fear, your strength, you'll find
I am the shadow, fading into the night. 
I can see your defiance, will you take the fight?
Run like hell, don't let me get near.
My spirit is the dark. You will always live in fear!

Fun fact:
When I've tried to sing this for a few first sessions, verse "For I am the creeping nightmare, you're (...)" sounds mostly ...different... Constant changing the sentence "unaware" into "underwear" makes me not finished the performance because of permanent laughs on myself. Hope I would never have to sing this on live session because my "professional" sense will never let me skip the mistake unnoticed.

Run Like Hell

This dancefloor was empty until you showed up, but there's one more thing you can do...

Dance a little closer!

Dance A Little Closer

You say happiness exists, but you're not sure where it goes
And you don't know how you feel, but you're getting real close
You're keeping me in the dark, but it won't be long
She says
She says I won't like it, but I just gotta hold on
She says
I'm done with all this silence
Russian roulette romances
One slip, oh, I could light it
Just tell me this is lifeless
I need you to hate me, baby, in the worst way, oh
Yeah, I need you to hate me, say it to my face, I'll go
Yeah
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Say something
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Say something
Now I'm talking to myself 'cause I miss your ring tone
You say you're still around, but I'm done and I need to know (Need to know)
You're keeping me in the dark, but it won't be long (Be long)
She says (She says)
She says I won't like it, but I just gotta hold on (Hold on)
She says (She says)
I'm done with all this silence
Russian roulette romances
One slip, oh, I could light it
Just tell me this is lifeless
I need you to hate me, baby, in the worst way, oh
I need you to hate me
I need you to hate me, say it to my face, I'll go
I need you to hate me
I need you to hate me, baby, in the worst way, oh
I need you to hate me, say it to my face, I'll go
(I need you to hate me, I need you to hate me)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Say something (Say something)
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Say something (Say something)
