                                                                         >  x3

On the final iteration it ends with

|----0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0|
|------1---------------1----------|
|----------4---2---4-------1---2--|

                                                                         >  x2

|----------4---------------4---------------4---------------4---2--|     |
|--2--------------(2)-------------(2)-------------(2)-------------|     |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|    _|

Again the final iteration ends with the transition above.

|--4---------------4---------------4---------------4--------------          ¯|
|----0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0|          |

                                                                             |

|----------4---------------4---------------4---------------4---2--|           >   Section *
|--0--------------(0)-------------(0)-------------(0)-------------|          |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|          |
                                                                             | 
|--0---------------0---------------0---------------0--------------|          |
|----0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0|          |

|--0--------------(0)-------------(0)-------------(0)-------------|          |
|-----------------------------------------------------------------|     x2  _|

And finish with the transition once again

|--0---------------0---------------0---------------0--------------|
|----0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0---0|
|------1-------1-------1-------1-------1-------1-------1----------|

|--0--------------(0)-------------(0)-------------(0)-------------| 

|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|
|----------------------------|
|----------------------------|
|----------------------------|
|----------------------------|
|--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-  Repeatedly getting louder 

The second half of the song (with the lyrics) is identical to the introduction, 
with the exception that 
Section * is repeated twice.

Lyrics

feathers and a cage too small
chemicals that make us tall too fast
too fast

all my friends look the same
all of us feel the same pain
always pain

artificial sunlight here
perfectly calibrated year
and it feels wrong

so every time i see a man
i dream about his face in a frying pan
human eyeballs on toast

but when they seared off my beak
i realized just how weak we are
we are

and if i had a bigger brain i’d surely find a way
to take my own life
i’d end it all right here before my meat is how they want it
mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

but that might be the only part of my body
that you haven’t tried to change
my altered life is the worst miracle my peanut can’t imagine
mmmmhhhmmmmmmmm
