The band is ready to play.
Billy clicks his sticks and goes "1, 2, 3, 4..."
...
Nothing.
"Oh, hold on, I'm still trying to get my amp set up." Danny said.
"Ugh..." Billy groaned, "Come ON!".
"Wait, wait, wait... Alright, ready." Danny said.
"1... 2... 1, 2, 3 ,4!"
[Play immediately]
The band started heavy
Compassion is broken now
My will is eroded now
Desire is broken now
It makes me feel ugly
On my knees and burning
My piss and moans are fuel and,
I set my head on fire
Smell my soul is burning
I'm broken
Looking up to see the enemy
And I've swallowed the poison you're feeding me,
But I survive on the poison you're feeding me
Leaving while you're
Lincoln and Cody
Guilt, fed
Hatred, fed
Weakness, fed
It makes me feel ugly
On my knees and burning
My piss and moans are fuel and,
I set my head on fire
Lincoln does a scream
Dead inside
Shit adds up
Shit adds up
Shit adds up
Shit adds up at the bottom
Everything goes calm and dim
Cody talking in his mic:
If I let you, you would make me destroy myself.
In order to survive you, I must first survive myself.
And I can sink no further, and I cannot forgive you.
There's no choice but to confront you, to engage you, to erase you.
I've gone to great lengths to expand my threshold of pain.
I'll use my mistakes against you.
There's no other choice.
Lincoln and Cody together
Shameless now, nameless now, nothing now, no one now.
But my soul must be iron.
'Cause my fear is naked.
I'm naked and fearless.
Lincoln takes over
And my fear is naked
Lincoln and Ricky together
Dead inside
Billy does a drum lead
Dead inside
Dead inside
Dead inside
Billy does a drum solo while this verse comes up
Nameless now
Shameless now
Nothing now
No one now
Shit adds up
Shit adds up
Shit adds up
Shit adds as you see me,
Billy does another drum solo
Naked now
Fearless now
Naked now
Fearless now
Shit adds up it leaves me,
Dead inside
Dead inside
Dead inside
Lincoln only, screaming for 14 seconds, hitting his highest octave
Dead inside
Hatred keeps me alive,
How could this keep me alive?
Weakness keeps me alive
Guilt keeps me alive at the bottom
Jay does a solo

It cuts to in the Loud House where Lincoln is walking to his room with his new friends. Suddenly, they hear an older girl laughing. They turn around to see Lincoln's older sister, Luna.
"What's so funny? Luan didn't tell a joke." Lincoln said.
"I don't need Luan to tell a joke when I'm looking at 6 of them right now." Luna said.
Cody then stormed angrily up to her, only to get stopped by Lincoln, who turned to him and shook his head no.
"Oh, what? Is your DJ boy going to do something to me?" Luna said, taunting Cody. "I don't know why he's in your band. DJs are useless and not musicians anyway.".
"I'll have you know that DJs ARE musicians, bitch." Cody said, angrily, getting closer to Luna, "Sid Wilson, Joe Hahn, DJ Lethal, DJ Qbert, DJ Symphony, DJ Premier, Terminator X and many many more are very talented musicians. The groups that they are in would not sound anywhere near remotely close to what they are without them."
"Come on, Cody, let's go." Lincoln said as he put his hand on Cody's shoulder.
Cody huffed and went back to his band.
A/N: Did I miss any other good ones in that selection?
"Hey, Hawkins." Luna said to Billy and Ricky, "How does it feel being rejects?".
Billy was about to jump but Ricky stopped him.
"We're not rejects." Ricky said, "We're in a superior band. How does feel to be a true reject knowing that Sam Sharp rejected you?".
"You... you told them ABOUT THAT YOU LITTLE SHIT?!" Luna yelled angrily as she was about to pounce Lincoln until Danny stepped in front of her.
"You want him? You'll have to get through me." Danny said.
"And me." Ricky said.
"Me too." Jay said.
"Me 3." Billy said.
"You're going to have to get through me as well." Cody said.
"What's it going to be, Luna?" Lincoln asked.
Luna laughed and walked downstairs.
Billy angrily threw a middle finger at her.
"Come on, Billy." Ricky said as they all went to Lincoln's room.
