BRAINSTORM RUNNER

## **BRAINSTORM RUNNER** *(High-tempo hard rock / thrash-adjacent anthem for a Crazy)* **[Intro | count-in, siren-guitar squeal]** One! Two! Three! Four! **[Verse 1]** They cracked my skull like a vault at dawn, Wired in thunder where fear was born. Chrome kissed cortex, stitched in bright, Now my pulse runs fast as a streetlight fight. The world moves slow, I move wrong, Like a metronome made of nails and song. Every breath is a trigger, every thought is a blade, I was built to burn through the promises they made. **[Pre-Chorus]** Overclock the meat, let the spirit go feral, I hear tomorrow screaming in the coil of my marrow. No calm, no hush, no safe retreat, Just a war drum grin and a kill-switch beat. **[Chorus]** I’m a **CRAZY** and I’m **wide awake**, Speed of sin with a psi-shake quake. I don’t pray, I **spark**, I **bite**, I **break**, Kick the door of reality off its frame. **Lightning across my brain** like a razor-wire sky, Every flash says “live” and I don’t ask why. I’m a **CRAZY**, watch the clean world blur, I’m the scream that the surgeons prefer. **[Verse 2]** Visible hardware, halo of scars, Thoughts like bullets ricochet off stars. I taste the air, I feel your lie, I read the room with a third-eye knife. Hands shake steady when the danger sings, I pull your secrets out by their strings. They said “You’re chosen,” I heard “You’re owned,” So I made my mind into a loaded throne. **[Pre-Chorus]** Synapse fire, fever bright, I run the edge where the laws get light. If the world’s a cage with polite dead ends, I’m the bolt cutter the lightning sends. **[Chorus]** I’m a **CRAZY** and I’m **wide awake**, Speed of sin with a psi-shake quake. I don’t pray, I **spark**, I **bite**, I **break**, Kick the door of reality off its frame. **Lightning across my brain** like a razor-wire sky, Every flash says “live” and I don’t ask why. I’m a **CRAZY**, watch the clean world blur, I’m the scream that the surgeons prefer. **[Bridge | halftime stomp, crowd-shout rhythm]** They wanted a weapon with a human face, A smiling bomb in a running race. But the mind they juiced won’t stay in line, I’m a fault in the code with a furious shine. Say my number, tighten the strap, I’ll turn your nightmare into a map. **[Solo | frantic, shredding, divebomb into chaos]** **[Final Chorus | double-time, extra gang vocals]** I’m a **CRAZY** and I’m **wide awake**, Speed of sin with a psi-shake quake. I don’t pray, I **spark**, I **bite**, I **break**, Kick the door of reality off its frame. **Lightning across my brain** and the world goes white, I see your future in a strobe of fight. I’m a **CRAZY**, hear the overdrive purr, I’m the scream that the surgeons prefer! **[Outro | breathless laugh, amps feeding back]** Overclocked. Unlocked. Try to keep up.
