How to animate decaying text
All the searches I did had to do with a decay property.
What I’m looking for is how to make regular looking text (say, white) appear as if its decaying over time (turns grungy, dirty, maybe some falls off).**I look down at where you’re standing
Flock of sheep all on display
With all your lies piled up around you
I can take it all away** -

This may get you started with some of the techniques you’ll require.

Or maybe turbulent noise (with evolution off, so it doesn’t animate) to get a rough texture, and using it as a luma matte (while animating the brightness), or with the Gradient Wipe effect to get a splotchy transition?

Hi there, There’s also Shatter which you can create a cistom map for to determine how your text will break into pieces. Here’s a link to a tutorial I did covering this technoque. Follow the link to “Handling Particles in After Effects” https://www.angietaylor.co.uk/digital-arts-online-tutorials/
