Title: Preventative Measures
Artist: Black Thread Union
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Itemized log of every exit
Numbered every structural door
Mapped the blast radius
From ceiling tile down to the floor
Interior lights on digital timers
Pressure windows vacuum-sealed
Called it advanced preparation
When the room itself forgot how to feel
[Pre-Chorus]
Secure the threshold
Dim the feed
Lower the dosage
Of everything I’ll ever need
[Chorus]
Preventative measures
Clean room full of dead air
I engineered a safer life
And disappeared in there
Preventative measures
Hermetically seal every door
Nothing gets in
Nothing lives here anymore
[Verse 2]
Strict internal policy of distance
Cold virtue in the temperature drop
Every conversation regulated
No sudden spikes, no uncontrolled flame
No open exposure
To anything that carries a name
[Pre-Chorus]
Secure the threshold
Dim the feed
Lower the dosage
Of everything I’ll ever need
[Chorus]
Preventative measures
Clean room full of dead air
I engineered a safer life
And disappeared in there
Preventative measures
Hermetically seal every door
Nothing gets in
Nothing lives here anymore
[Bridge]
Limit structural access
Systematically reduce the risk
Clear the immediate hallway
Permanently seal the list
No direct human contact
No exposed wire
No unpredictable weather
No useful fire
[Build]
Call it proof
Call it proof
Call it proof
With nobody left alive inside
[Final Chorus]
Preventative measures
Clean room full of dead air
I engineered a safer life
And disappeared in there
Preventative measures
Blackout locks on the window light
I kept myself safe
And completely out of my own life
[Outro]
Limit structural access
Systematically reduce the risk
Maintain the defensive distance
Call it—
