Janek Hru - doom scroll

never wanted you for me
was afraid of loving you
so i pushed you away 
now that i'm here all alone in misery
keep thinking of what i had

i had you 
and i let it slip away
i had you 
and i let it slip away...

Slipped Away

Idea 1032 (appetite)

Shadowplay (Joy Division)

Sun’s up, but the sky looks mean. This track paints a picture of a seaside nightmare where beach patrols count profits and justice is sold like bubblegum. It's a surfin' rebellion against a system where cruelty isn't a glitch, it's the code. We’re the virus in the overload, surfing the chaos until the system pops.

(Verse 1)

Sun’s up, but the sky looks mean
Red tape wrapped in kerosene
Boardwalk ghosts with plastic grins
Smile wide while they reel you in

Cut the cord, they pull the plug
Gaslight’s burning, kiss the thug
Shockwave justice, twisted fun
They sell the pain like bubblegum!

(Chorus)

Cruelty’s the policy — hey! hey!
Kicks you down and calls it free — hey! hey!
Laugh it off, it’s tyranny in flip-flops
We surf the chaos till the system pops!

(Verse 2)

Beach patrols with mirrored eyes
Counting profits while freedom dies
Wave breaks on the TV screen
Neon sins in a washed-out dream

Blood in the sand, flags in the breeze
A nation kneels on bended knees
They call it order — we call it crime
We’ll crash their wave in double time!

(Chorus)

Cruelty’s the policy — hey! hey!
Spray-paint justice on the sea — hey! hey!
Ride the line, defy the tide
We’re the noise they can’t confine!

(Bridge)

You can’t drown a movement, man
Even in your master plan
We’re wired, wild, uncontained
You build walls — we build waves!

(Breakdown)

Cruelty’s not a glitch — it’s the code!
And we’re the virus in the overload!

(Final Chorus)

Cruelty’s the policy — hey! hey!
But we’ll rewrite that melody — hey! hey!
Surf the storm, don’t sink or hide
We’re the riptide, we’re the other side!

(Outro)

Cruelty’s the policy... not anymore... not anymore...
