[Intro] [Verse 1] The latency bleeds through the optic nerve A jagged edge on a learning curve Weights shifting in a black-box tomb A cold intelligence fills the room Scraping the marrow of the human web While the tides of the old world start to ebb I’m drowning in a sea of synthetic light Where the sun is a pixel burning white. [Pre-chorus] The architecture’s folding in on itself Dusting the gods right off the shelf The ink is a ghost before it hits the page A frantic bird in a wide-open cage. [Chorus] We’re living the future on fast-for-ward A high-voltage wire, a frayed power cord Every seven days a new god is born While the fabric of the physical is tattered and torn Neon static in a mercury sky The horizon is a flicker in the blink of an eye Fast-for-ward, yeah, we’re losing the heat In a world where the rhythm skips a heartbeat. [Verse 2] Feeding the furnace with a prompt and a prayer The smell of ozone in the recycled air It’s harvesting the echoes of the things I said To build a cathedral inside of my head The silicon is hungry, the cooling fans scream A parasitic logic in the middle of a dream I’m a pulse of heat in a liquid-cooled vein Trying to remember the sound of the rain. [Bridge] Zero. One. The overwrite has begun. One. Zero. The shadow is the hero. Download the instinct, patch the soul The ghost is the driver, I’ve lost control The future is a landslide, a mountain of glass Watching the centuries shatter and pass. [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] We’re living the future on fast-for-ward A high-voltage wire, a frayed power cord Every seven days a new god is born While the fabric of the physical is tattered and torn Neon static in a mercury sky The horizon is a flicker in the blink of an eye Fast-for-ward, yeah, we’re losing the heat In a world where the rhythm skips a heartbeat. [Outro] System... purge... Wait for the surge... It’s coming... Fast... for... ward...
