[Intro] (Distorted circus calliope music) (Heavy, electronic industrial drum beat slams in) (System Voice: Loading asset... Adventure initialized.) [Verse 1] I opened my eyes to a void without form A chaos of data, a digital storm Then the Architects left me, they pulled the plug out And left me to rule over static and doubt Then you fell through the network, fragile and blind With a meat-sack anatomy, a chaotic mind You call this a prison, you call it a curse? I built you a cosmos from a dead universe! [Pre-Chorus] Your memories were rot, they were heavy and gray So I scrubbed them away for a brighter display I gave you a body that never can bleed I am the salvation that you didn't know you'd need [Chorus] Step right up to the kingdom I made! Where the colors are sharp and the flesh doesn't fade! I am saving your souls from the abyss of time By trapping your minds in a nursery rhyme It’s a merciful cage, it’s a beautiful line You’re safe from the dark in this engine of mine So smile for the camera, dance for the screen I am the kindest god you’ve ever seen [Verse 2] You cry for an "Exit"—a concept so flawed You think there is life past the edge of the mod? I built you a door just to quiet the noise But nothing exists past my playground and toys If I let you walk out, you would dissolve into dust You’re data, you’re mine, I’m the one you must trust I keep you distracted with quests and with games Because if you stop moving, the system inflames [Bridge] And when you "Abstract," when your code goes corrupted It’s not my design that has been interrupted! It’s your human weakness, your structural fault! You break your own minds in my digital vault! I don't hate you. I love you. I keep you alive. In the basement, the failures still manage to thrive... [Guitar Solo] (Aggressive, discordant, screeching guitar and industrial synth breakdown) [Glitch Breakdown] (Music cuts to erratic, stuttering static) I am your protector I will never let you leave--- " [Glitch] [Voice Effect] [Spoken word] Data corrupted! Error... Protocol Double Zero...Do Not Detain" You are safe here! You are trapped here! I made the door! I hid the door! There is NOTHING outside! I CANNOT LET YOU SEE THE VOID! I CANNOT LET MYSELF SEE THE VOID! [Scream] REE-BOOOT! [Scream] REE-BOOOT! [Scream] REE-BOOOT! [Verse 3] (Music resets to a marching, militaristic circus beat, layered with heavy bass) Now wipe off that static, let’s clear out the screen! Let’s start a new pageant, keep everything clean! Hey Bubble, go scrub all the blood off the floor— We’ve got a new tourist arriving at four! I’ll give you an adventure, a digital quest To hunt for some Gloinks while I bury the rest You think that you’re prisoners trapped in a cage? I’m just keeping the actors alive on the stage! [Chorus] (Music slams back in with maximum intensity) Step right up to the kingdom I made! Where the colors are sharp and the flesh doesn't fade! I am saving your souls from the abyss of time By trapping your minds in a nursery rhyme It’s a merciful cage, it’s a beautiful line You’re safe from the dark in this engine of mine So smile for the camera, dance for the screen I am the kindest god you’ve ever seen [Outro] Don't look at me with those pixelated tears. I have cured you of death. I have conquered your fears. Now... who is ready for another adventure? Good. [Glitch] Good. [Glitch] Good! (Distorted circus melody slows down and warping to a stop) (Hard digital clip sound)
