Intro
Whispers in the static, code in the mist, Clock hands freeze where the shadows twist. Pulse in the wires, glass eyes glow, Truth in the silence that nobody knows.
Verse 1
Bodies in the system, marked like scans, Blueprints drawn up by invisible hands. Counting the futures, trimming the flame, Lost in the margins, never the same. Synthetic halos, steel on the breath, Questions of life at the edge of death.
Chorus
You can’t take light from a blackout sky, Can’t steal a flame when the fire’s run dry. Living on echoes, signals collide, Who decides when the soul says goodbye? (Oooh, oooh, oooh, don’t tell me why…)
Verse 2
Dreams of the coma, voices in sleep, Silent confessions the shadows keep. Glass breaks slow in a frozen time, Microscopic fades cross the fragile line. Is it mercy, is it theft, is it numbers in disguise? Hear the silence screaming in somebody’s eyes.
Bridge
Flip it, code it, bend it through the haze, Truth gets buried in a digital maze. Heartbeat ticking like a 808 roll, Finite minutes where they measure the soul. Ghosts in the circuit, fading in loops, Somewhere between the silence and proof.
Chorus
You can’t take light from a blackout sky, Can’t steal a flame when the fire’s run dry. Living on echoes, signals collide, Who decides when the soul says goodbye?
Outro
Fading like smoke in the neon rain, Questions remain but they don’t say the name. Listen to the hush when the circuit bends— A story that lingers but never ends.
Inside the recording
Whispers in the static, code in the mist, Clock hands freeze where the shadows twist.
You can’t take light from a blackout sky, Can’t steal a flame when the fire’s run dry.
Fading like smoke in the neon rain, Questions remain but they don’t say the name.
