Style: Heavy modern rock (dark, aggressive, live-band energy)
Tempo: 92–96 BPM
Key: D minor
Time: 4/4 driving
Mood: Loss of control, ego collapse, dopamine spiral. Brooding verses → explosive chorus. Masculine, raw, not theatrical.
Instrumentation:
• Drums: punchy kick, big snare, tom fills into choruses, no electronic sounds
• Bass: thick, slightly overdriven, locked with kick
• Guitar: heavy drop-D power chords, palm-muted tension in verses, wide open distorted chords in chorus
• No synth pads, no industrial textures
• Vocals: low and restrained in verses → gritty chest voice in chorus → full-throated yell in final section
• Optional light gang shout only on “Head Trip” hook (subtle, not stadium)
Structure:
Intro (dirty riff + tom groove) → Verse (tight, minimal) → Pre-Chorus (build tension, rising chords) → Big Chorus (open chords, strong hook) → Verse 2 (heavier) → Bridge (half-time, stripped back, vocal exposed) → Final double Chorus (hardest hit) → Short, heavy outro riff

Lyrics
[Intro – low, almost whispered]
Head trip
I slipped
I tripped
Who’s writing
The script?
⸻
[Verse 1 – restrained]
I wasn’t ready
Or maybe she wasn’t mine
Independent fire
Out of my time
I pushed the pace
I pushed the drink
Pushed my brain
Past the brink
Called it love
Called it fate
But I was wired
And running late
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – tension, bass climbs]
You gotta know the tools
And fuck all the rules
Lie in bed
Hear the truth
The price is yours
To lose
⸻
[Chorus – not big yet, heavy and hollow]
Head trip
Head trip
I burned it down
While chasing it
Head trip
Head trip
I lost control
Won’t face it yet
⸻
[Verse 2 – darker, confession]
Went off the rails
Drunk and high
Public fall
Blackout sky
Lucky the bar man
Stood his ground
Protected me
From myself
Scary how quick
You disappear
When the mind
Starts steering fear
⸻
[Bridge – anxiety build, dissonant guitar]
Blame it on the crows
Blame it on the show
Grab the phone
Grab the glass
Say “let’s go”
But in your head
You already know
How the story ends
How the movie goes
Twists and bends
No one wins
You hear the darkness
Close
⸻
[Break – near silence, heartbeat kick]
No king
No war
No enemy
Just me
⸻
[Final Explosion – full band, distorted vocal]
Dopamine head trip
You slipped
You ripped
Now you’re stripped
Of the script
Head trip
Head trip
You lit the fire
You fed it
You wanted love
You wrecked it
⸻
[Outro – resolution, almost calm]
No crown
No car
No avatar
Just a man
Breathing in the dark
Head trip
