Deftones - Can't Even Breathe

Deftones - Smile

Lovers

[Intro, slow build]

[Verse 1 – Containment]
Every breath, a labored restraint,
every smile, I kept my chaos retained.
They called me calm, they called me kind—
but rage chewed through my spine.
Polite enough to fool the flock,
but my patience ticked down like a clock.

[Chorus – The Break]
I am the patience machine,
all restraint and gasoline.
Turn the crank, let pressure sing,
manners burn and metal cling.
You thought I’d never bite,
now I am the dark of the night.

[Verse 2 – Unleashed]
I kept my hate in mental bars,
filed each face beneath the scars.
The lock broke slow, the world went still,
now victims kneel before my will.
This is not revenge—it’s form,
perfection born inside the storm.

[Bridge – Spoken, over grinding riff]
“I ironed my instincts.
I cleared my thoughts.
Now I’m ready to kill.”

[solo]

[Final Chorus – Unchained]
I am the patience machine,
precision wrapped in meat and steam.
Every second I behaved
was a second I engraved.
Now the mask is just debris—
you built this monster out of me.

[Outro – whisper, static fade]
