A continuation of the black box, shown in lyrical form of how it feels—what happens when a seizure hits me.
Lyrics - Me
Voice - lower notes me (lots of auto-tune), higher notes AI
Music - Suno
[Verse 1]
Burning, fueling, aching in my chest
Heart won’t slow, I’m failing the test
Pounding like a war drum stuck in my head
Every second screaming I’m better off dead
Vision flickers, breaking apart
Static in my brain, tearing the dark
I feel it creeping, crawling in deep
Something inside me I cannot keep within
The world starts slipping out of my grip
Try to stand steady but my body won’t listen
Every nerve firing, nothing makes sense
I’m locked in a war with my own defense
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m fading between the gray and now
Losing control, I don’t know how
[Chorus]
The black box is consuming me
I can’t feel, I can’t breathe
I can’t shout, I can’t flee
Every shadow’s chasing me
I’m trapped inside, no way out
Silent screams I can’t let out
Knocked down again, I try to rise
But I’m gone behind these fading eyes
[Verse 2]
Breathing heavy but I need more air
Something’s wrong but I don’t know where
Chest locked tight like it’s caving in
Shadows forming around me
Footsteps echo, closing fast
Every second feels like my last
I turn around but they’re still there
Living inside my fractured stare
Hands start shaking, vision bends
Every thought starts caving in
Voices whisper, don’t let go
But I don’t know what I even know
Running circles in my own mind
Trying to escape what’s undefined
Panic rising, I can’t outrun
The shadows know what I’ve become
[Verse 3]
Pulse racing faster, disaster strikes
Lightning cracking through my mind
I drop again but I try to fight
Fading in and out of the light
Black creeping in from the edge of my sight
Voices distort, nothing feels right
I try to scream but nothing comes out
Buried alive in a silent blackout
Struggling up but I’m dragged back down
Drowning inside without a sound
I’m still here, but I’m not the same
Something inside me erased my name
[Final Chorus]
The black box is consuming me
I can’t feel, I can’t see
I can’t shout, I can’t flee
Every shadow’s swallowing me
I’m trapped inside, no way out
Drowning in a silent doubt
Knocked down again, I try to rise
But I’m lost behind these fading eyes
I hope that was fun! My voice was able to be a little expressive, but that’s from tools. 😅


super job, Cory.
Your lyrics reminded me of how I felt….60 years ago.
