ALALEKS
[style: symphonic metal / alternative metal | tempo: mid-slow | key: minor | mood: suffocating, restrained, inevitable, emotional]
[instruments: violins (dominant), violas, cellos, piano, low brass, subtle synth textures, distant choir]
[effects: orchestral crescendos, vocal delay/reverb, string swells, dynamic drops, compression buildup]
[Young male vocal]

[verse 1]

I’m standing in noise that nobody hears
Every thought resets before it disappears
My body moves on patterns I never chose
Like something inside already knows

[pre-chorus]

I look at myself, but the picture won’t stay
The lines don’t connect the usual way
There’s damage buried under the skin
You won’t see where it begins

[chorus]

And it’s breaking down
Slow motion, no sound
Pulling me inward
Layer by layer
There’s no conclusion
Just constant descent
I don’t know if it’s me
Or the system that bent

[verse 2]

Sometimes I think it’s structural
A flaw in the wiring, habitual
No drama left in asking why
Just counting how long I can comply

[pre-chorus 2]

Every step feels like a warning sign
Every night rewinds my mind
Whatever’s running underneath
Refuses to release

[chorus]

And it’s breaking down
Like weight without ground
Eating through silence
From inside out
There’s no victory here
Just staying intact
Like the world forgot
How to pull me back

[bridge – instrumental]

[solo violin: long sustained notes, slight distortion]
[cello counter-melody, piano low octaves]
[choir: wordless, breath-like, rising tension]

[bridge – vocal]

This isn’t invisible
It’s just not translated
Not everything real
Leaves marks you can trace

[emotion section]

[style: orchestral breakdown | dynamic: bardzo cicho → nagły wzrost | focus: emocje, nie melodia]
[instrumenty: pojedyncze skrzypce solo, wiolonczela, oddech wokalu, bardzo niski fortepian]
[efekty: bliski mikrofon, słyszalny oddech, minimalny reverb, brak perkusji]

I’m not afraid of falling
I’m afraid nothing ever stops
That this pressure
Is the most stable thing I have

I don’t need saving
I need interruption
Just one second
Where my thoughts don’t finish themselves

If this is strength
I don’t recognize it
If this is living
Why does it feel automated

[pauza — tylko skrzypce, jeden długi dźwięk, który zaczyna się łamać]

[Violin solo, rising]


[final chorus]

And it’s breaking down
Without signals or signs
Methodical pressure
One breath at a time
I’m not screaming
Sound doesn’t apply
But this is happening
This is not a lie

[outro]

[solo violin fades, sudden stop]
