TAMAGOTCHI HEART (NEYUS) (2026)
© 2024 / 2026 Sashariel | NEYUS (www.neyus.net) NEYUS is a solo project by Sashariel. Original songs are written and creatively directed by Sashariel, with AI-assisted instrumentation and vocals used as creative tools. ------ “Tamagotchi Heart” was always one of my favorite songs from "GEN Y", my 2024 album and, in many ways, the beginning of NEYUS. I loved the original outcome, but I felt it deserved a new version with the current NEYUS sound. Coming back to it now feels strangely special, because NEYUS has become my most important creative project, alongside DIVIDED HORIZONS. ------ > LYRICS [Intro] It started with clicks and little lights, Tiny beeps in pixel nights. Life inside a screen so small, Who knew we’d learn to fall? [Verse 1] First came the wonder, the digital touch, A pet that thrived on just enough. Tiny worlds where nothing bled, Keep it alive, or it’s marked as dead. Pressed our hearts into these games, Never knew they’d do the same. [Verse 2] Then came the chat rooms, the flashing screens, Built connections through wired dreams. Words on screens, laughter typed, No need for faces, no need for light. The screen would hold the deepest part, Turns out it also held the heart. [Chorus] Tamagotchi heart, always on, Flickering in the dark of dawn. What we fed grew into chains, Caught in circuits, trapped in frames. The touch got cold, digital voices clear, But the warmth was never near. [Verse 3] Slowly, the glow became the need, Every ping a heartbeat’s speed. We swam through streams of empty feeds, Traded friends for endless seeds. Algorithms read our fears, But can they dry a human’s tears? [Verse 4] Now every screen’s a windowpane, Reflections of a world in vain. We speak in codes, in fractured sighs, Hoping someone’s on the other side. The light we chased turned to a haze, But still we scroll through endless days. [Bridge] Once we fed them, now they feed us, Endless hunger, endless rush. We built a world inside the screen, But lost the faces we used to mean. Plastic lives and wired veins, Living dreams with broken chains. [Final Chorus] Tamagotchi heart, always on, Flickering in the light of dawn. What we gave became the chains, Bound by circuits, soaked in rain. The touch got cold, digital voices clear, But the warmth was never near. [Outro] Feed the glow, keep it bright, Who fills the soul when it’s lost to night? Built on likes and little lies, Do you ask why the feeling dies? (Why the feeling dies) (Why the feeling dies)
