“Unit 12..." "Grid instability... repeat..." "What the fuck is happening...” " Some sort of..." (static) There calling it a heartbreak outbreak..." “We’re losing power across...” "...City is on fire..." Climbin’ that pole in a dead zone, Radio static, skull blown. Sirens snap, fade in the back roads, Whole damn city doesn’t act right. People just break in the streetlights, Screamin’, spittin', shit don’t sit right. Hands on the line, I feel it kick, then thrum, Low in my chest...ticktock; SOMETHING COMES! Rain hits hard, sky cracks green, Flick, then black; no in-between. Grid starts dyin’, block by block, Heart sync... shock, skip, then lock. Headlights cut through the downpour, No brakes, no swerve, full fuckin' force. Wood snaps, splits. Wires whip fast... Then I get hit... Pitch black... Then flat... Feel it in the wires, feel it in my chest, Every broken signal never lets me rest. Heartbeat climbing, pressure breaking out, Something in me is taking over now... Lights out! Fade to black! No control, No way back! Break down! System crash! I don’t run— I've become the blackout... Synapse snap, impact cracks, system stacks, sparks smack... FUCKING BLACKOUT! Backblast batters my chest; heart claps, kickback... TAP OUT! Nerve tracks twitch, every fragment reacts... Fast maps stack out! Brainwave break, every signal goes black, no track... No damn route now! Blood flow slows but it glows, thick code... Like a live wire blown down! Bone plates quake when the voltage corrodes... As hard nodes tone out! No control in the storm, overload mode, pulse folds, Zones out! Soul goes cold but the current won’t cut; fuck... I WON'T DROWN OUT! Rain taps skin, pins press in... Each nerve gets lit again! Pain stacks waves: frame cracks... Names snap and split at the end! Brain backfires: tight wires...bind, grind... Lines twist and bend! Death taps twice, Then it slides... Then the mains FUCKING IGNITE... Feel it in the fracture of my chest, Every spark is crawling through my breath. Heartbeat breaking... nothing left to doubt, There’s no saving what I’m turning into now... I twitch... Ascend... No breath… No pulse… No sound… Flatline... Then a spark snaps back... …No signal… …No pulse… …No light… ...I feel POWER... Now I'm the FUCKING SURGE... Livewire in the circuit, my nerves start to burn, Every synapse snaps, the surge reoccurs. Current converts what I was to a curse, Burn in the core where the pulse gets worse. Grid gets gripped... every switch gets stripped, Every bit I was splits and blurs. I don’t resist; I let voltage persist, Now the system doesn’t sit; it defers. Block by block, every socket pops, Transformers drop when the voltage hops. Lights flick, flip, then the skyline slips, Whole grid gets clipped when I fuckin' twitch... WATCH! Rapid reaction... the pattern is fracturin’, Data is scatterin’... matter is gone. Battery shatterin’... ladder collapsin’, I’m stackin’ the current... I carry it on! I'm the fault, In the frame, In the code, In the current you can't fucking control, I'm the break, In the grid, Every line, Every node; Gonna blow! Pulse like a bomb. tick... tick... Then it rips! Every line I touch glitches... Then shit dips! System severed when I send it through the center, Every sector gets shredded in a second—then it... BOOM... Backbone cracks, black sky snaps, Half the map collapses in a flash! Steel bends, grid ends... No past, no path... just fucking ash! Sparks drift... ash falls... Dead calm, no sound... I’m gone; off grid... NEVER FUCKING FOUND... Ash and lightning in the same fuckin' grave, Different causes, same damn decay. Look at the sky — don’t fucking blink… Watch it burn, motherfucker... Watch it burn... “…I am the blackout…”
